[/quote] Ok if you say so but again im not here to down talk domestics.........i love all cars that you can make go fast but me myself would rather build a 400hp honda drive it 150 miles a day and still get 30+mps and still be able to outrun MOST not all of the mustangs and vettes on the road it would just make me feel good to know that i didnt spend a fraction of the money to buy/build the car that some of the mustang guys did and 99% of the vette guys did, and dont say that a 400hp daily driver honda isnt possible or reliable, ive seen it done many times. Just like previously stated its all in the tune as to how reliable it is.[/QUOTE]



Coming from a honda owner I would feel very confident againest most v8's on the interstate but on a unprepped road most will kill imports from a dig and unless you race a 1/2 mile you will be playing catchup..

There have been several that have made pretty close to 1000whp (within 10-15 hp) that have done it with a stock motor from valve cover to oil pan

its a 3.0 liter and i was mainly referring to the bigger v8's 5.7 liters and such but hence the why i said almost, 2jz's are supra motors a dime a dozen

03/04 cobras can make 1080-1120rwhp with twins, Gt500s have made around 1150 with twins.
actually come to think of it i have never seen a twin turbo 1000hp mustang on the street ive only ever seen it at the track.

Most 99 and up model mustang cobras can make serious power with a stock motor. Especially the 03 and up cobras taking the blower off and adding a turbo.

Most of them are still street driven and still have the majority of their creature comforts
