Long tube and tune on a 4.6 GT, you'll be lucky if you get 30rwhp, long tubes and tune on a camaro 50rwhp.
I drove mustangs all my life they've always been underpowered, I had a 98 Gt, 2000 GT, 2004 GT, 2007GT. I had a turbo on the 04 full bolt ons and I was barely making aroud 362rwhp. While the LS1's with heads and cams were breaking 400rwhp.
GM just makes a better product it took me 12yrs to realize that.
My mustang was pretty sweet though, but I would never trade my Camaro back for it.
Now if ford dropped shelby and just make a SVT Cobra again like the termi that would be a whole different story. But the 5.0 will probably be faster than the 2010 SS, not lets see how long GM lets that happen though.
We know ford has always been behind the game the camaro, as fugly as it was in years passed has always been faster.

agreed,.. I am a mustang fan along with the new camaro..
but when u look at it mustang GT to Camaro SS (ford people stop bringing in GT500 its $17K more then I wanted to spend) Mustang GT was lighter handled better when option with track package but engine without rebuild is limited to 450wHP safetly. I looked at GM the LS3 is good for 600wHP safetly.. Not hard to make camaro handle better..
as of 2010 GMs Camaro SS is just the better option for someone who wants to go fast in top end..
