800 horsepower sounds really good to me. You cant argue aginst horsepower. I would like to know what Shelby did to get 800 horsepower out of the 5.4 liter engine. I would sure like to have one of those supersnakes.

Since the GT500 runs on on 9 pounds PSI I'd assume a 15 - 20 lbs PSI would be required to achieve 800hp range. That would be boost galore.

"... While the base Super Snake will produce a mere 750 horsepower, those who feel the need for more power will be able to add an optional upgrade package that will provide 50 more.

Shelby provides no warranty on the engine and transmission, in either case...

...

... The 2012 Super Snake will be legal to drive on public roads on all 50 states, the carmaker promised, and it will cost less than $100,000..."


What a bargain!
