What year??? Up to about "02" I "think its about 285 to 290 r.w.h.p. Actually, IF that! You will find that EVERYONE throws a lot of "numbers" around hear and an awful lot of them are,.....eh,.....very,.....eh,..."optimi stic" even with a dyno some dynos regularly throw different numbers than a different brand. The "mustang" dynos always are very conservative AND Ive been told a little more,....eh,.....reliable. But this like so much of our world is subjective and I will go with whatever the group says on this.

The 405 HP Z06 is around 355-365 at the rear wheels.

Most 345-350HP C5's are around 290-305 at the rear wheels.
