1) What would it take to get say 350HP on top of my current list of mods. I was thinking Full lenght headers and Catted X-pipe. Cams ( not sure which ones ) and heads.....and 2) what kinda times would that get me. I like the 3.27 gears because I drive highway alot and currently get 28.5 mpg when driving all highway.
Any input helps.

gears wouldn't do anything for hp. do you want 350 to the wheels? if so id think you would have to do bottom end work on top of the heads and cams.
I realize gears do nothing for HP. But when I asked what times to expect I figured someone would tell me add more gear. I was interested in what 350 flywheel HP would run about with the current gearing and what was needed to make it.

Its going to be a very hard task to get 350 n/a..
what time you looking to get out of the car?
I think even with 3.27 and 350 hp ull get some awsome times. Expecially with some sticky tires!
Wont be VERY hard but it will take some money. You need a intake,,bullet,trick flow..something of that nature..there seeral 2v intakes out now. VERY GOOD ported and polished heads...look into Fox Lake or TEA's. IM not a fan of patriot,for my own reasons. A set of healthy cams something like Hitech stage 2's,long tubes a nice free flowing exhaust AND some much needed dyno time/tuning.Now as for what times it would get you...who knows every car is different..gears..trans..clutch set-up and suspension all play a important part...as does the capabilities of said driver.

2010 Gt 5spd....WIFE's car.
im n/a with fully built bottom end...ported pi heads w/all new valves, crower stg 2 cams, valve springs...full bolt ons, lts o/r x, slp cb(def free flowing exhaust), an 4.10s, etc etc.
i have asked on many forums what i would make on the dyno an people say around 320-340 n/a........i still am waiting for a few things then im going to get a dyno tune, etc. im going to be running spray with my compression so you have to figure out what you wanna do with your car down the road...if your gunna add boost get low comp, if you want spray get high comp.
as for gears go....if your getting your motor built, your gunna loose some of that mpg your making anyways, so you might as well change the gears bc once you get your motor built your def gunna jump on it more than you did with just bolt ons. an with 3.27s your not gunna feel the fun factor or power your making with the new motor so get 4.10s bc your mpg will be going down anyways lolhope this info helps man
oh an p.s...............if your worried about getting good times, worry about getting rid of those 3.27s because you wont get as efficient times with your built motor an 3.27s as you would with 3.73s, 4.10s, etc
I got an '01 with:
stock bottom end
stock heads
stock lower intake
bbk cai
bbk 75mm tb
bbk upper plenum
comp cams xe262ah (kinda like their stage 1)
steeda underdrives
bbk long tubes
bbk off-road x
magnapack cat back
3.73
... SGS custom dyno-tune and it put down 294HP / 314TQ to the wheels.
that's a STD number and if you use the generic .85 loss through the drivetrain, I should be about 345hp and 369TQ at the flywheel.
If you put any aftermarket cams in there, you will not like those 3.27s at all. Even with these so-called Stage 1s, the 3.73 is not real easy to take off or drive at low-rpms.
Good Luck
Wow. Not much to look forward to. So sell it and buy an 05 or newer....problem is I told the wife and daughter it would be an auto so they can drive it.

why sell your pony an buy a newer stang? just for the power?
The S197 platform itself would be reason enough. I enjoy driving my 06 GT 1,000X more than my old 03 Cobra and it's 200 plus RWHP less.Originally Posted by PunisherStang
I would think that car should run high 13's as it is now.

i know it responds well to mods...im just not a fan of the new edge body style...i like the shelbys but the regular gts are just missing something to me.
just buy a new g8.. ls3 > 4.6 and its got enough room for them all
Hell, thats the first wrong move you made, telling them they could drive it!!!!
There are all motor Automatic S197's in the 11's
