And if you put that same technology and put it on the bigger displacement engine...?

The v6 with minor mods will be giving the Mustang GT's a run for their money with the 315 hp that the GT is putting out. Not everyone can afford an SS and to trick it out. I'm sure that with the same money I'll be paying for my SS, I could have a more-powerful-better-performing-warranty-voided-v6.
V8 gives more potential but it's a high price to start out. If you had 38 grand and could never put another dime towards it aside from scheduled maintenance/tires/etc. a modded v6 would probably be better than a 2SS/RS with a bolt on or two...
