Ford GT

SO i got to finally see one on the dyno today, i stopped by the shop for a quick visit before work and they had a herritage edition ford gt, they did a kenne bell blower, a smaller pulley and exhaust on it. it ended up making 590hp and something like 575ft/lb torque. i have a feeling they got a little more out of it since this morning when i was there. but this was the louddest car id ever heard on the dyno, it was like a rocket going off.

they don't have pics on the site yet but when they do ill post em.

that should be because they change the exhaust, I know that with the stock exhaust they are not loud but they do sound nice anyways.
