[QUOTE="jaxbusa, post: 16216527, member: 175253"] That’s the truth. I have way more in mine than I thought I would for just 400hp. I bought mine for $5500 about 5 years ago. It just had catback exhaust and the paint was rough. I originally told myself I was just going to put a Kenne Bell on it and call it a day. Early on I took the car to a road course event and realized it was lacking in the handling department even though the Bullitt was supposed to have better struts, sway bar and springs. I bought a Maximum Motorsports Road and Tack package, 3.73 gears, 31 spline carrier, braided brake lines and hardened axles. It completely changed the car. At the time, my dad ran a body shop and I was able to take the car apart and put in some time sanding and got it painted for cheap. I thought the Mach stereo sucked and removed the plastic box and replaced everything. When it came to the power adder I wanted something I could grow with and didn’t want to repurchase anything because I went cheap. I was also worried about heat soak, I live in Florida. I considered a coyote swap but it was expensive for 380rwhp and, at the time, didn’t have any blower options for the swap. I settled on a Vortech V2 TI. I bought a TIG welder and welded my own aluminum tube for the intercooler. I splurged on the injectors and bought ID1000s. Again, I didn’t want to buy anything again because I was cheap. So, yeah, I have a lot in this car. If the engine blows I’ll just get forged internals and get a smaller pulley on the blower. Search YouTube for Andrew Lavender.
