| What's the highest Horsepower that a "Street Legal" 2005+ Mustang GT with an automatic transmission can go, and what parts will be needed? |

The
05-08 Mustang engine limits are at 525rwhp. The
limiting factor is the short block. The weakest
part of the short block is the rods and pistons. If
you are looking at making 500-700hp an upgraded
crank, a rods and piston kit will be needed. The block
itself is a good piece and would be able to handle
that horsepower range. Running at
500rwhp and a car properly tuned should not have
any issues, once you go over the 525rwhp it is a
ticking time bomb. If tuned properly it could last for a
little while, an non properly tuned car, it could go
on the first good hard acceleration.
The
easiest and most reliable way to make close to 500
rwhp is with the Ford Racing/ Whipple supercharger.
The kits will make about 480 rwhp and with the Ford
tune it could run for ever. As long as the car is properly
maintained. Dollar for Dollar a supercharger is the
best way to make power.
