the roush mustangs are overated. i come from a huge ford family so i know. the 99-04 body style stage 3 had 360hp and would go low 13's in the quarter mile. thats the thing with fords you cant make them go fast without a supercharger or nitrous. even if he has a pulley swap with headers and tune it will max out around 420rwhp given it has a relatively small M90 roots blower.

Your best bet is gonna be from a low roll (Auto,weight,lesspower)
Roushes are turds, I had a 03 cobra with just a catback/x-pipe/short shifter and raped a modded pullied stage III Jack Roush 04 Mustang GT.

Thats a terrible ford comparison.thats 4v versus 2v ...rousches are overrated but in 30 years theyll be collectors type items.
