So I thought I share my thoughts and results with the community with my experience with a ported upper and lower manifolds installed on my 2015 mustang.
Baseline car is an auto transmission 3.15 gear V6. All Runs are done on Stock Pirelli P Zero Nero Tires 235 R18. The only modification done to the car before the manifolds were installed are Roush Axle Backs.
The Track used for 1/4 mile testing is Bandimere speedway In Denver Colorado. Track Altitude is 5800' above sea level.
I ran the car 7 times down the 1/4 mile on this track on 3 different event days with the axle backs.
The worst run on the base line car with axle backs was:
Density Altitude: 8444 feet, Temp 80 degrees
R/T .681
60' 2.681
330' 7.019
1/8 10.512 @ 72.78
1000' 13.499
E.T 16.03 @ 90.59
The Best run with the base line with axle backs was :
Density Altitude: 6073 feet Temp 46 degrees
R/T 1.167
60' 2.346
330' 6.493
1/8 9.837 @ 74.45
1000' 12.687
E.T 15.11 @ 94.06
Now with the upper and lower intake installed on the car I did 4 runs at Bandimere speedway on the same night.
The worst run with the ported upper and lower manifolds & axle backs was:
Density Altitude: 8601 feet Temp 81 degrees
R/T .583
60' 2.643
330' 6.862
1/8 10.252 @ 73.64
1000' 13.180
E.T 15.64 @ 92.21
The Best run with the ported upper and lower manifolds & axle backs was:
Density Altitude: 8601 feet Temp 81 degrees
R/T .658
60' 2.352
330' 6.531
1/8 9.902 @ 73.97
1000' 12.813
E.T 15.25 @ 92.86
My other two runs for the night were 15.49 @ 91.96 & 15.41 @ 92.39
Now Based off that data I haven't beat my all time best so far which is the 1/4 E.T. 15.11 @ 94.06 but i got close tonight with 15.25 @ 92.86. The big factor at play here was the density altitude and temps 46 vs 81 degrees. So based off all this data im not sure what to make of the ported upper and lower intake mod it seams to have helped a little bit but im not entirely sure. Perhaps someone can chime in on this. My launching techniques were the same for these sport mode, auto shift traction control on leave @ 1800-2000 RPM. my reaction times are fairly close and the 60' times are fairly close aswell.
