You beat the driver not the car.. 5.0's PP or not, is gonna run low to mid 12's with E85 and intake. If you had a big turbo yeah sure..

U should have posted this in the ecoboost section. You might get some good feedback there. There are too many GT trolls on here. They are just mad that we can get a 25K ecoboost, put 2K into it, and be pretty damn close to a stock, 38K+ GT, reliably, oh and get 30 mpg. Can you mod a GT and get support more power? Sure, but thats not the argument. Both cars are great in their own ways. Lets just stand together and talk crap about the hybrid model coming out in 2020 lol

I'm not mad, or a GT owner. :cheers:

I assume most people can handle a couple jokes here and there. I think all Mustangs are a lot of fun - and that's what I buy a car for. I don't buy a car to be the quickest in a race, because I realize there's always going to be faster cars out there.

Don't get me going on the hybrid thing.

Some people take this hobby way too seriously. I used to. I spent a small fortune on my 97 GT trying to keep up with and beat LS1 Camaro's. I had nothing to show for it in the end. I don't even have that heavily modded car anymore.

Also, the hybrid Mustang has me curious. I might buy one.

I would have considered an ec0boost except that neck snapping torque at idle is just way overboard. I fear such a powerful performance machine as the ec0boost would simply get away from me at part throttle. Just to much power for the streets IMO, and the OP proves that with all those awesome part throttle W's.

What on earth are you talking about? How am I mad? A slow car racing other slow cars is funny. A stock gt and unless boosted is pretty damn slow. The inferiority complex with ecoboost owners having something to prove is stupid. If you like your car then nothing else matters.

Hey but lets stand together!

If you want to talk about boat anchors...4.6 liter V8.

The 4V's were pretty good for the time. The 2V was slooooooow.

On my 2V I had ported heads, cams, full exhaust, intake and a tune and honestly, I think the car was faster after I swapped in the Mach 1 with just a tune (300whp/331wtq).

If you wanted a GT it could have been had OTD at around 32k.. No 5.0 owners are mad..

2 valve 4.6s with NA mods was as good as flushing your money down a drain. Only 4.6 4 valves were mildly worth while as NA. Even then 400whp took a lot of work to get. Boost was the only way to go.

Had I known at the time I would have bought a Camaro SS or Trans Am WS6, but I didn't - I just knew that Mustangs were cool. I was a young, dumb infantry Marine, so I worked with what I had.
Fortunately when the engine blew it was right before my first trip to Iraq, so I used all the money I saved while deployed to drop in the Mach 1 crate motor.

You could probably ad a corvette driver or two to your list. If you'd be willing to get a set of drag radials and head to the track. Maybe even a stick shift hellcat. Those cars are hard to get down the track on the stock rubber.

An ec0boost at part throttle with drag radials is downright dangerous... with all that torque you know.

Give it up man. You've posted the EXACT same thing four times in this thread already and it's just barely over 2 pages. Old joke is old.
