Have you tried mixing red bull into your gasoline? Or even replacing the gasoline altogether with jet fuel?

Add dice to the mirror. That's 50bhp right there I guess. 

muh specs

Stuff- k70 with reds, steel series rival, g13, full desk covering mouse mat

All parts black

Workstation(desk)- 3770k, 970 reference, 16GB of some crucial memory, a motherboard of some kind I don't remember, Micomsoft SC-512N1-L/DVI, CM Storm Trooper (It's got a handle, can you handle that?), 240mm Asetek based AIO, Crucial M550 256GB (upgrade soon), some hard drives, disc drives, and hot swap bays

Maybe 64GB?

Sounds like death in a tank. 

 

Nah, stickers are more effective. +25kw per sticker

Ill add all the sticker

If anything I could say that this mustang was rare

But I thought 'Nah, forget it' - 'Yo, holmes to Portland'

But really guys I was being serious... I want more horsepower. xD

So I want my mustang well above 300 HP it sits stock at around 230. What is my cheapest most effective way of doing that? It is a 1995 5.0L. 

 

@techswede, @AlwaysFSX, @terrytek, @AlexStriz 

Sorry, not really fluent with Ford's, but I'm pretty sure there is a bolt on super charger for the 5L's(not sure, also its not cheap). If the bottom end can handle it(again, not sure), then a NOS fogger kit would be relatively cheap(however, illegal in most areas). If you have the tools, the bolt-ons like cams, headders, cold air, and other "bolt-ons" would be worth investigating.

*Risky click of the day*

Like a cold air intake? That'll get me around 7HP.

I wouldnt think there would be a "cheap" way to reasonably gain 70 hp

 

your either adding some sort of forced induction, stroking the motor or NOS all not really cheap

Its all about those volumetric clouds

I have just about any tool (Dad has worked about any job you can think of, including mechanic) so I have got tools for birthdays as whatnot, but experience I lack. I am getting there slowley through trial and error. Ill need his help (He lives a few miles from me), to do anything that requires moderate mechanical work.

cheap is relative I suppose. I mean less that 5-7K. Around 1-2K is what I was thinking.

No ... Buy Strength items  :P

... Life is a game and the checkpoints are your birthday , you will face challenges where you may not get rewarded afterwords but those are the challenges that help you improve yourself . Always live for tomorrow because you may never know when your game will be over ... I'm totally not going insane in anyway , shape or form ... I just have broken English and an open mind ...

Wow Ford sure has made great strides in their engines; the 5L v8 in the 2016 makes 435hp. I'm surprised that your engine produced such little power even a luxury car, the LS400, produces more power with a smaller na engine lol

Yeah, I had a Lumina before this. It had a 3.4L after a turbo, Quad Exhaust, etc I got it to 300HP+. Albeit it stared at 215... The tourqe figures on the 5.0s are crazy though. They get up and go. Something like 320 Ft-lbs of it. Which is good for the weight and HP. 

 

Here are some pics of it (The Lumina):
