Re: Official Whipple/KB/Eaton HP/TQ/mods thread:

During the summer months I split up the daily driving between the Mach 1, Marauder, and my 06 Mustang GT. The Mach 1 had the Kenne Bell with 500 RWHP, the Marauder has an Eaton M-112 with 512 RWHP and they behave as if bone stock driving around town. You have to learn self control though! My one line I wouldnt cross when modding these cars was drivability. I didnt want a car that was finicky or tempermental for driving around town. Both get great gas mileage when you keep your foot out of the pedal like Scott said. I wouldnt change a thing.

Any of you ever wish you would of gone with a procharger style blower or something else?

Awsome numbers by the way, a couple of years from now I hope to be putting up a list too.
