3.7 badges on a 5.0... why? And what brand hood struts did you purchase? Sorry if I missed that but, I didn't see it if it was posted.

Mustangs tend to need almost 50HP more (possibly more) to compete with Corvettes based on my experience. On a back straight with an aggressive cammed C6 Z06 I was able to creep on him with the ProCharger. They are really lightweight, slip through the air, and can hook up very well.

Lovin the new exhaust! Except neighbors are hating me and I'm sure I'll have some complainers knocking at my door in a couple days
Friday gonna talk to an exhaust shop about finishing running the exhaust out the back or possibly cervini style

And almost everyone who isn't American. Still fun though between road race sessions.
On topic though running an exhaust like that will get very tiring to the ears over time though. Hopefully this isn't a DD car brother.
