With disassembly I can turn that engine into a 4 liter and get over 400HP from it. Its routine around here.
You're making my mouth water. Can a Tiptronic trans handle that much power?

Yes. The tip will handle more power than a manual.

That's nice to know, thanks.

After the intake upgrade, I'm not sure if I would want 400HP lol. The car is getting down the road is a massive hurry right now and I still have the headers, cat delete pipes and Borla exhaust to do. Also thinking of opening up the intake pipe some more along with a tune.

I was looking at 330HP to put the car on par with the new 2015 Mustang GT hp to weight ratio. I think my car would actually need 343HP to achieve that.

EDIT: Side note: I am looking at some light weight wheels right now and the exhaust change should lighten the car up a bit.
