Since 2005 when the 4.6's got a 45hp gain over the 99-04 4.6's. Motor Trend recorded an 05 GT running a 13.5 in their January 2005 issue and in the April 05 issue a convertible GT ran a 13.8.

With that said, I have personally seen 05+ GTs run 14s when I was at the track and some run 13s too.

I've also seen s/c SS' run low to mid 15's at low sea level. Some people can't drive.

On the side note, a 98 GT will spank an 05 SS pretty good (assuming both driver's are competant). You're comparing a high 13 second car with a high 14 second car.

I already have a supercharger in my car, i dont really want to swap a turbo in it. unless i could SUPERTURBO CHARGE it lmao.

and REALLY?!? HOW?! on edmunds it says

98 Mustang GT:
Horsepower: 225 hp @ 4750 rpm
Torque: 290 ft-lbs. @ 3500 rpm
Curb weight: 3400 lbs.

05 Monte Carlo SS Supercharged:
Horsepower: 240 hp @ 5200 rpm
Torque: 280 ft-lbs. @ 3600 rpm
Curb weight: 3395 lbs.

i think itd be pretty close!?

that seems like a really good start, just estimating how much hp could that give off?

Lol, my bad. I must have been tired last night because I thought we were talking about racing an 05 SS against an 08 GT, lol. Anyways, against a 98 GT the SS will win. 96-98 GTs were junk and were lucky to go any faster then low 15's. Just make sure that you don't spin your tires much and you're good.

Also, you can buy a block off plate for your M90 in order to go turbo. I'd seriously recommend looking into it because s/c setups can get pretty pricey.
