So 1g means I can drive 70 mph sideways? Pretty cool. But as it's been mentioned, Roush has all ready done it.

So what bolt on's are necessary to acheive this level of "stickyness"?

Inquiring minds want to know!

Roush claims a rating on this for 1g but I'm thinking that means it would handle it without breaking something. Probably that and some nice power mods, 10" rims and good tires. http://store.roushperformance.com/detail.aspx?ID=1145

Think about what the KR has. Tuned suspension, over 500 hp, and some kind of extra wide space age tire compound. Consider the GTs need somewhat less with the lower weight I'd imagine.

The GT would need a bigger motor for one... Put the 5.0 Cammer in there, slap on a TT or S/C and now you've got a starting point. Just think, why is the GT so much lighter than the GT500 / KR??

Right, but I would think one of the more aggressive superchargers would suffice on the 4.6. Think about the saleen chargers that claim 600+.
