Hey everyone, I'm new to the online forums but have heard a lot of good things about 6g, so I figured I'd ask y'all for some help/guidance.

I've had my car (2017 Mustang GT Premium w/ PP) since January of this year, and learned how to handle the car's stock power in mid June when I could really start taking her out in the nice weather and seeing what she can do. But like everyone else, it could just use a little more; then a little more; then a little more. And now I want 550 rwhp. Nuff said. But I wanna be different than everyone else.

The intention of this build is to reach 500-550rwhp completely Naturally Aspirated, but to be honest I don't know 100% what that requires, or even if it's possible.
So far I have basic stuff done. JLT CAI, Lund Tune w/ nGauge, and a Corsa Sport Catback w/ Quads. I haven't been on the dyno yet but I'd like to guess that i'm around 395rwhp as is. Suspension wise I have Eibach Multi-Pro-R1 Coilovers, BMR Vertical Links (Delrin/Spherical), Toe Rods, 4pt Chassis Brace, and a Level 2 Cradle Bushing Lockout kit.

This might be really f'd up and impossible, but after I achieve 500-550rwhp, I'd like to run a 100 shot of nitrous just for trips to the track. is THIS possible?

I'm looking for help with supporting mods too! Idk at what point I will need what, but I'm sure the internet does!

So I'm asking the car community to come together and give me as much advice as possible, your attempts, stories, things that went right or wrong for you; anything at all. :ford:

Lth,cat deletes, gt 350 manifold, gt 350 tb is up for debate, comp cams, bigger injectors/upgraded fuel sytem, Lund flex fuel tune, what ever cai that looks the best to you because it really doesn't matter, feed her corn only and a little fairy dust should give you what your looking for! If I forgot any thing just wait a post or 2!! Check out some other threads as far as opg and such but n/a I'd be ok with oem parts.

I still dont believe a gt350 IM with cams will hit 500whp. unless were talking 5.2 block gt350 heads comp cams long tubes ect.

CJ or bust.

Stock heads stock block just cams long tubes cj intake has been done to get to 500whp in the link above.

500NA and 100 shot would be baller!

I freaking love NA builds. Personally id rather see a 10 second NA car vs a big hp car that runs mid 10s lol.

i think you'd be close to 500 with the gt350 and cams / headers, e85

Hey boss manifold performance really well with cans. Seen article not too long ago the show the boss within 5 horsepower of a Cobra Jet is when they both had cams. Holley sniper is another manifold to perform as well it fits underneath the stock strut bar and comes with a 90mm Inlet. Haven't heard anybody doing cans with a Holley sniper yet and how it does. Also haven't seen anybody N/A with a Edelbrockt manifold. Another thing is how did the stock heads when ported and Polished compared to the GT350 heads. If someone who has a build that dynoed 525 horsepower all motor with cams and he was basically full both on, he's on the fourms

500 crank bhp is possible NA with bolt ons and tune. but 500-500 rwhp is madly optimistic!

[MENTION=28009]Evil 5.0[/MENTION] will probably chime in. He's kinda the staple for 500+ whp NA on this forum. He went for it and made it happen. That's where I got my build recipe from and let me tell you...IT WORKS! I did CJ IM, FR twin 65's,PMAS,lu47,comp stage 3 cams,billet OPG/CS,ATI damper,reische termostat,kooks catted LT's,with a corsa sport catback. With Lund tune. Also went ahead and did McLeod billet flywheel, rst clutch,McLeod braided clutch line,, steeda short throw, DSS aluminum ds, and DSS 2000hp axles. I already had supporting suspension mods. The only thing I would do different is done it at 4 miles instead of 4K. It drives like stock and runs like a scalded cat when you want it to.

Yes sir. Currently on e85. I have a tune for the flex fuel and 93 but I'm getting good e85 pretty close to home so I'm going to stick with that until winter

I got all my parts from beefcake and Finishline performance done all the work. I highly recommend both even if it's a little bit of a drive. (400 miles one way for me) I'll be using them more without a doubt. That's my new performance headquarters
