Just my 2 cents (Canadian), but I am quite happy with the 525 hp from my nicely behaved, easy driving stroked original 351C block with some nice simple parts. A few years ago I tried to convince the builders to try a supercharger, NOS, turbos - you name it. They rolled their eyes at all such ideas and were probably right.

My 4.6 Cobra is supercharged (Vortech) and intercooled. It runs great (most of the time) and although it used to outrun my Pantera, before I rebuilt the motor, it's not even close anymore. For a low boost daily driver the resulting difference was very limited.

Big bucks and a lot of plumbing hardly added much to my 4.6 experience - at least nothing I can find when racing from stoplight to stoplight against non-blown Mustangs. And older 5.0 Mustangs regularly blow my doors off.

I have been convinced that there are easier ways to unleash the violent monster beneath your right foot.
