Is it possible to safely push a stock 2007 V6 5-speed to at least ~250 rwhp, with easy to install/uninstall mods for under $1,000, and how?
As has been said, with some nitrous, even a small shot, and basic bolt-ons you should be at or over 250 rwhp. But you're looking at more then 1k for that setup, plus i wouldn't feel good using it with stock suspension/ tires. If you mean can you get to 250 rwhp just through bolt-ons, staying n/a, no nitrous, no supercharger etc.? Short answer, not currently.

Well you probably can, but it will cost you way more than a grand!

Okay! I'm looking to get 250hprw. Just with mods and bolt-on's, but I'm going about it from a different direction.
First of all, I don't need all that power in one shot, so I'm doing this slowly because of the money and I think that it's not good to throw alot of power on the car at once.
Below shows what I have done so far
What I have plan for my stang is to beef up my weak 7.5 rear end.
1) I will be doing a TA girdle & stronger 28 Spline to complete the rear end, because I've done the gears, t-lok and driveshaft already.
2) I will be doing the torque converter and that should take care of the tranny.
4) After that, the powerplant will need some bolt-on's like, Underdrive pulley, Jet Hot Headers, Free-flow cats & Y-H or X hookup w/mufflers.
5) By that time it should be a stroker kit out there for my stanger: Cam, lifters, pistons, crankshaft, plugs & cables.
At that point I should be running 250hprw or better.
The car will be stronger and ready for a s/c or turbo/c system.
400hprw & 431torque is the new goal at that point.
ps: NOS don't live here!
With the mods I've done so far I need 56 more horsepower to make my first goal of 250hprw
....should get you there safely. Now you'll need a t-lok to get both wheels spinning. That'll bring you up to 1k but then you need to pay for the t-lok install. ~$300.
~$1300 plus you'll need to fill the bottle every so often.

Hey! DelStang So are u saying that my car don't have these items in the AT? Or u are saying that they don't make these parts for my car yet?
R u saying if I put LT header on my car, it will not pass inspection, because I can't use cats with LT headers? Is that right?
If so, than thanks for clearing that up for me.
Denny
As you guessed, with LT headers you won't have cats and thus won't pass inspection, in states that have car inspection. + 1 for Florida :)
That may not be entirely true Mac currently is offering a long tube header and a V-6 Pro tube setup w/cats but it lists for about $850.00. And JBA offers a LT H-pipe w/cats for the GT But I really don't have a clue if or not this will swap without modifcatiopn for the V-6 LT headers.

Life can be summed up with the marks you leave behind.
go to rpmoutlet.com. you will see at the side of the page a certain link to 05+ mustang V6. at the very bottom of that new page there is a power pack. includes: JBA headers, choice of intake and tuner, throttle body, pulley system, and JBA performance plug wire set. for maybe a little more 1K after taxes and shipping. but a barain for what you are getting. i am thinking about the same thing.
