fp red or precision 5858
I'm currently making 448whp 363wtq on 92oct. My current setup is an fpred with stock ported exhaust and intake manifold, ets 3.5 intercooler short route piping, 65mm tb, gsc s2 cams, fic 1050cc injectors map 02 dump full 3" tbe. I'm trying to decide on whether to keep this setup or go for the ets kit with a 5858 turbo. I'm trying to make 550whp and eventually more.

Are you switching to E85? I'm pretty sure even a 5858 won't make 550 on pump gas..

No matter what you do, the red is not going to make 550whp on pump gas.

You can make 550whp on a stock block and not have worries of it letting loose as long as your torque is kept conservative. I made 550/380 on a HTA3582 setup. I did an ARP rod bolt upgrade and new bearings install which in my opinion is a nice upgrade if you plan to keep the shortblock stock for an extended period of time. I switched to a 5858 setup in May to **** my tuner off because i like to do things against the grain. Its sitting right close to 450 on a Mustang Dyno. With a ported head and s3 cams I dont see any reason why you cant get around 480-490 out of a 5858 on a Mustang Dyno.
