Maybe you missed my point, but the point is that the FA24D will likely be capable of 400-450whp with only bolt-on and without having to open up the motor. This puts the car into serious competition with other vehicles. While the FA20D could get to 350whp without opening the motor, that power level is good, but adding another 50-100hp would put the car in a bracket that would make it competitive to much more expensive cars. A stock Mustang GT dynos around 400-450whp, so this would have that type of power at 800lbs less weight. It also would eliminate the need for some swaps because a LS swap will look less appealing if power can get into the 400whp level on stock internals.
