Hey guys, first time in the 4.6 section but I need some advice. Im looking at a 96 GT that has a full PI swap and want to know what kinda power this car will make.
Here are the mods.
2001 PI Heads W/BBK valve covers
PI intake
Pacesetter long tube headers W/ X-Pipe
Flowmaster mufflers
Prof. Products upper intake
Splitfire Plugs (not even installed yet)
70mm MAC throttle body
24# injectors
80mm Mass Air Flow
Cold air intake
Steeda Tri-Ax short shifter
3:73 rear gears
2003 Mustang GT rims
Brand new Hydroboost with all new hydraulic lines
New Interior:seats,door panels,rear panels,center console
White face gauges
5" Autometer Monster tach W/ shiftlite
clear headlights

The owner says that with good driving the car could be in the 12.8-13.1 range. What do you think. I also have a nitrous kit I will be putting on it from my fox,what should it run on 100 shot. Thanks.

I guess the driver would be important, but my guess is mid 13's on street tires. With slicks and some weight reduction, maybe... MAYBE high 12's trapping like 105

It's got TB/Plenum, Longtubes, midpipe, catback, 3.73's, CAI and it's pi swapped. prolly putting down around 270 rwhp

Though I could be wrong.

That seems to be a pretty genorous #. Unless it has a new shortblock with no miles then I would guess high 13's right around where I am at. Depends on the tune and the driver.

But I have been wrong before.

I agree with these guys, that car should run mid 13's. You'll prolly be able to run 12's with the shot and some good driving.

yeah, mid 13's and lower 13's w/ a good driver and some good rubber. I'd say 260hp and 285tq
