Default enuf torque?

ok guys. please no dumb comments. just a question. anyways, do our mustangs have or would they ever have thru tons of mods, enuf torque to come up on two wheels? ive seen the 94-04 body style v6s do it and we have more torque and hp than what they do so even with mods they prolly are close to our stock hp. i just havent seen a s197 v6 do one and was wondering if it was possible with enuf mods.

please take it easy on me haha

im quite sure with some head/cam work, a strong enough forced induction, some nitrous, drag slicks, a good tune, and suspension mods, weight reduction and all that jazz im quite sure it can be done lol.

Helium in the front tires.....works every time..He he he.Sorry, sometimes I can't help myself. But seriously, I think the 94-04 models are more compact. That might make it easier. But you're right, Ya think that someone would have done it by now.

well think. 4.10 gears and t loc would be about 1k with install, supercharger prolly 5500 with install, nitrous is prolly 300 with install, and new cam is 700 with install, slicks are prolly 1500 w skinnies in the front and the wieght reduction would prolly be free if i did it myself.


add it all up and u get about 10k. and thats over pricing. im sure people actually have these mods and are still not getting off the ground.

probably going to want to go turbo with the 4.0 over the supercharger. 6k for turbo.

Nitrous kit is going to be at least 600 with accessories. And you're missing all of the suspension upgrades, you can't just twist the chassis up in the air off the line and think it's all going to be okay when it comes down. Cam + Heads + springs etc etc is around $3k without install...
