Press the accelerator? Stock it's 265hp/235ish rwhp. If you mean extra, only way to get around 330+ is a supercharger/turbo charger or spray.

Roughly 400 hp. You can probably go a bit more but thats about your safest bet.

If you don't want to spray a supercharger is the best and cheapest route. You can go n/a but you'll end up spending allot more money and you probably won't get much higher than 300hp.

I wouldn't say it's the "only" way, but its certainly the least costly and least amount of work.

STROKE KIT! That will net some worthwhile gains, turn your 4.6 into a 5.0! That with full bolt ons could POSSIBLY net you 100 to the rear wheels but you would be running massive compression and probably not using pump gas.
