If you read my other posts you would see that that's obviously not the only thing I'm interested in by far. I had already found articles comparing the top handling cars under 40K and now wanted to compare the power for that price range. If I was only worried about the 0-60 and 1/4 mile times then I would go with the Mustang , but I prefer one that can take a turn and launch at high RPM's and numerous other things.

I haven't heard of one, but it doesn't take much. I knew a guy who had an axle-back, tune and some slightly wider tires who ran an 11.9 at 114. From what I know he grenaded his transmission not too much later, but he was shifting the crap out of that thing. Fast cars all the same.
The current 2013 GT500 crushes the 1/4 mile in 11.6 bone stock @ 125.7 mph.

The 2013 GT 500 starts at $54,995.......
Correct, but I was referring to the comment that "there is No stock current Mustang that will run 11's".
That's simply not true.
There is no stock Mustang under $40K that will run 11's that I am aware of, but there certainly is a stock Mustang that is fully capable of running 11's out of the box.
The new 5.0's run 13 flat, which is a bit quicker than the stock Evo, but a drop in filter and a tune will make a big difference in the Evo. Yeah, I know...it's not stock if it's been tuned blah blah blah, it's not our fault Mistu's tune is crap.

If you do your own labor it possible fp black or map ef 4 ported 2000-2300 figure intake inner cooler piping 1000, turbo back exhaust 800-1000, injector 450 for Id 1000cc , fuel rail 125, pistons rods and all gaskets bearing,1500, cams 500 springs 150, that's 7025 total add 300-500 for tuning and if you want a different turbo add 2000 more still under 10k if you install all your self
Why would you buy a fuel rail if you're trying to run 10's? The rest of your post is assuming used parts or something because the prices are off. In any case, you'd be using ebay parts and on a block that got no machine work, you know, like BALANCING THE ROTATING ASSEMBLY and other minor things like A CLUTCH.
Dude it won't happen. I can see you're biased and like I said I've been in an Evo for 5 years, but its just an unrealistic budget.
That's really generic isn't it??
You MIGHT be able to get an intake, piping and an intercooler good for 600whp for $1k. It would all have to be used stuff at the minimum.
1000cc injectors are not going to get you to 600whp. If they do, they sure as hell aren't going to do it safely. Don't forget to add a proper fuel pump. A single walbro isn't going to get you to 600whp safely either.
You forgot to factor in WGA, manifold, BOV. All would have to be upgraded in order to make 600whp. If you go cheap on the wastegate or BOV it can end up robbing you power later on.
Also, don't forget about raising boost. If you go with a MBC, stock ECU or something else, it's still costing more money that wasn't factored in.
Stock ignition could end up being a problem as well. I've seen plenty of Evos (including my own) who's ignition couldn't keep up at 500whp.
I could actually keep going, but I think you get the point. I think it would be great if someone could pull off 600whp for $10k, but you have got to have A LOT of knowledge and probably a decent amount of hook-ups. Making 400whp is pretty cheap. 500whp starts getting more expensive. 600whp is where expensive things start breaking and to do it safely will cost you some cash.

You're at a lower elevation than me. ~1150ft ASL compared to ~6035ft ASL.

Dyno jets read higher than mustang dyno , and I made right around 500 whp on mustang dyno and 570 whp on vd in dyno jet mode on a map ef4 at 29 psi so 600 on a dyno jet is very possible.
I bought my exhaust brand new 700, AMS dp 450, cat delete 100, fuel pump 90, map ef4 around2000-2200, I had a sleeved block done installed 4500 cams AMS tmp 500, intake AMS 350, injectors Id 1000cc new 450, fuel rail 125 AMS ( for looks) or for better flow you choice ,inner cooler AMS new piping new 1250, everything I bought was brand new tune depends on who you go to or like 300-500 including dyno time , cmc 275 new clutch 1600-1800 , thats 13000total for everything brand new and tuned

Ag I didn't say I can install all my parts or willing to get my hands dirty but some people do a lot of there own work and do save a lot of money that way, I have also change my setup 2 times in a matter of 3 months

To be honest, just go to your local 1/4mile strip and see what everyone runs. Then try to run 13.4 for a GSR and whatever it is for the MR and see what you get. Its all about the driver and it is really hard to get a closed time especially on the GSR. I saw 2 brand new BOSS 302's running 13.7 and 13.8 all night (altitude of 2300ft.) last week... Also saw an GSR with turbo back, intake and tune run 13.5..
Don't worry about what the adds says the car runs. Just go and see what you get and then see what others get. There was a brand new camaro ZL1 running 13.8s too, he just couldn't launch the car and would spin on the first few seconds...

(I was looking at the 2012 Shelby 500 and that still wouldnt do it)
