What's up Ford Fans!!! I just recently got a 98 GT 5 speed, was wondering what I can get and do to add hp w/o going inside the motor?? Any helpful tips would be appreciated!!

PI=Performance Improvement.
Included intake, heads, throttle body...prolly other stuff.
The best bang is the PI intake.
Anyone out there know about this stuff...I am somewhat new to the 4.6L 2V Mod motors.
In addition to the PI hardware, there is always the CAI, and the headers you can do for modest gains.
If you have a BIG budget, ($3500-$5000), slap a blower on there. With a modest amount of boost, your stock motor can stand an additional 100 or so HP, without getting into the engine.

Well you can go with a blower but you will still be behind the HP curve. Even the PI heads on the 99-04's were very restrictive and didn't flow very well. Trick Flow makes great heads. They are called the Twisted Wedge heads for 4.6L 2V's. Then if you go with a blower you will create more power with less boost. Let it be noted that the stock pistons and rods will only withstand 450 HP, anymore and you run the risk of breaking them. If you do just get a blower I don't suggest anymore than running 400-450 Break HP.
