Wow wow wow lol and doesn’t that guy take a breath
Well, he's adapted it a bit lol! But i like this new quote......So, as Henry Ford might say (if he were around today)....."You can have it in any colour you like, as long as it's Race Red* "
*Unless you want to pay extra
On the first day of christmas, Gibbos true love gave to him.... ONEEEE MUSTANG PRICE LISTTTT :lol:December 1st is what they have been saying for past couple of weeks, so probably a few days later as Ford UK are typically late.
Saying that, at 435 whp, at only 10% efficiency loss (would be surprised its that low) makes this car 483 at the crank!The 2018 Mustang power curve continues to impress.
This thing is making more power than outgoing GT at 5500rpm but even better the power never drops off, its building all the way to the 7400rpm limter, no more 6400rpm drop off like older gen2 coyote with GT manifold.
The torque curve is also flatter and longer.
It now really makes sense to me why the reviewers have being impressed with the grunt down low (torque curve) and then blown away by it in the upper RPM range and also explains why this car loves to rev very fast and very high as seen in Lunds videos.
I personally think Lund will get 450-460WHP just from a tune which will put the car around 500HP crank.
Also the new A10 is so much more efficient, its looks as efficient as a manual when it comes to transmission losses, hence the high wheel power figures on MY18 and the US guys loosing their minds thinking its 500HP stock, which it is not, just the transmissions are simply more efficient.
No, its a happy dyno, all we are interested in is the plot, not the numbers and the plot is bloody amazing, no more power drop off, which is why in Lund's videos the car is creaming round to 8200rpm NA.
Nothing a tune can’t fix/ give backSo the UK brochure has updated mpg figures so a nice improvement there and the power still matches EU cars of 450PS.
So maybe, just maybe Ford also fixed the headers, 450PS is 443HP by the way.
They do seem to have tuned a good chunk of torque out of the engine though, my guess is something to do with emissions / economy, I am not fussed about power, headers anyway, mine won't be staying stock.
Exactly, a proper custom tune got my MY15 to 460HP with the only mods being the air box carbon trap removed and a K&N panel filter. 1/4 trap speed also went from 106mph upto 113mph, confirming the horsepower gain.
