I'm assuming you want more hp/tq than you have now. Is it tuned? What fuel do you have available to you?

Also, what are your goals and driving disciplines?

What kind of driving are you going to be doing?

Those HP goals are possible, but you're going to need a bigger turbo, injectors, fuel pump, TBE, etc. Cams and springs would be nice, etc.

On a stock block, 500 HP would be on the edge of safety. 600 HP has been done, but it shouldn't be done for too long. How much torque do you want? Torque is where the fun is at IMHO.

Basic bolt on's is a good start. I have a FMIC, AMS Lower Pipe, JMF 3" Intake, Full Turbo back exhaust, FIC 1150cc Injectors, Aero Motive 340 fuel pump and the car made on E85 357whp/359tq on a Mustang Dyno and I went 11.59@116mph at the drag strip. I have an EVO 9 RS Full weight. That would be a good start for you, I also recommend getting a wideband as well

Those are better than stock, but compared to S2 or Kelford 272 they're not that good. I'm sure there's a comparison between HKS 272 and S2 or Kelfords on here. If not I have a customer who's going to make the change and I'll post up a comparison.
