Why would they make faces? Dont you think by now they are used to 4 cylinder vehicle's running faster then 15s? :confused:
They were probably just surprised is all, I mean the 4 cylinders are hanging with the V8's nowadays unless it's from a roll race where there top end is just so much more then the 4 cylinder. I mean if I had a tuned 5.0 running in the 11's and then I seen a 4 cylinder do it with just a tune and a few bolt ons I would be mad as f*** lol

4 cylinders are hanging with mods. Which isnt exactly a new thing. Why would you be mad your v8 ran 11s with a tune when the 4 cylinder is more modified? Sti, evos, srt4s and hondas etc have been doing this for awhile. :lol: my daily sti on a stock turbo on e85 ran 11.6s for awhile. Put a bigger turbo on my daily to make it more fun while the 14 gt500 was getting weekend warrior duty. When i get a gt itll fill my sold gt500s role. Only an idiot would be surprised or underestimate a 4 cylinder.

I don't see any more mods on some of these 4 cylinders in the 11's then on the 5.0 cars in the 11's. I would be mad if my v8 with the same number of mods ran the same time as a 4 cylinder with the same number of mods especially the same exact car like the mustang but that's just me. Also for the record I do like the v8 mustang best of all 3.

da and driver mod is a big factor of why you see some pretty mediocre times for these modded gts. You must remember the ecoboost is a nice bit lighter too. Once they make close to 400whp that advantage becomes noticeable. People are generally horrible at drag racing. We have two gts damn near in the 10s with the basic bolt on mods. The ecoboost and coyote are not even close to equals, doesnt mean the ecoboost isnt awesome though.

There's also 5.0's in the 8's on the stock bottom end though..
I traded in my 2014 5.0 for my 2016 EB but the raw capabilities of the 5.0 out of the box is quite a bit ahead of the EB. I had just an X pipe, 150 shot and drag radials on my 2014 and ran 10.8 in the 1/4. No denying it, that's impressive for around $2,000 invested from bone stock on 93 octane.

There shouldn't be that many still. This isnt 2008 anymore. Only the casual enthusiast would be that dense. :cheers:

I hope to see you ecoboost guys running 6266 gen 2s or 6466 gen 2s soon :D

This is why I'm considering trading my eco for a GT and whipple it. Don't know if I want to do the full engine build + aux fueling.

ok, this shit does not make sense. so a stock turbo car traps 117 and a BIG turbo car traps 122? are these turbo upgrades just a joke or what? you make livernois look pretty silly
5mph is not a small gap,and im sure that big turbo has quite a bit more in it.

Proper wheel/tire combo and a converter make a big difference.
