Speak for others. My last 2 Mustangs were raced all the time.And when I get either a GT 350 or my blown GT they will be raced too.
Drag strip 30 miles away, SCCA SOLO 2.5 miles away and full blown racetrack 30 miles away. I only so far do the 1/4 mile because that is what my last 2 Stangs were...
The warranties offered for these kits do not retain your factory warranty. They replace the factory warranty when something breaks that is deemed to have been caused by the supercharger.
This is Roush's which may or may not be the same as Ford Racing...
I would do the fans before the tbody. The fans will help with heat soak. For the guy in AZ I think it is a must for you. The fans are for when you are at slow speed or a stop. They will help keep the IATs lower while there is not much airflow through the heat exhanger. On my 05 GT with blower I...
1. so, which is better? since this is a whipple forum, im sure most or all will say whipple.
> In my opinion the Whipple is better than the FRPP or Roush. But I would not say that the FRPP or Roush are not good units. They are. All three can make more than enough power to blow your motor.

We agree to disagree I guess. The article said bone stock. Others ran 12s too. It wasnt just this car.
The stats of the car more than justify that this is possible.
3300-3500 lbs. 285-300rwhp.
If a S197 4.6 3V can run a 13.3 bone stock with 265 rwhp and a Mach 1 can run 13.1 bones stock then I...
Im still in my saving up mode. (Plus waiting for contract negotiations at work to finalize) So I have nothing but time to plan my purchase and build.
If I dont get a GT350 and do get a Mustang GT my plan calls for what has been listed above.
Oil pump gears, crank sprocket, half shafts and...
So far I have not read any serious IAT post. When asked people with Whipples are saying there is no heat soak. But they are reading IAT pre compression at the MAF. I have yet to see any true IATs on the 2015s with blowers.
And I am really curious to see what the Whipples true IAT is with it...
I used the same tires on 17" 2005 Mustang GT takeoff wheels.
Did you ever notice at speed the car feels like it is swaying side to side? Scared me every time.
And are you using tubes? I didnt.
Except from 93 to 2002 when the Fbody twins massacred the Stang when comparing Z28 to GT. When my 94 GT was stock I was in fear at every light of a F twin beat down.
Also 2010 was a beat down too. At least now they seem to be close and it looks like they will start to go back and forth with some...
Really awesome times.
I love the bias ply slicks for a manual car. They absorb so much of the shock of launch, hook really good and I think they saved the tranny on my 05 with blower.
All of the old school guys I talked to at my drag strip usually go bias ply for manuals and radials for autos.
I hate to flame but.... Really?
> The Mustang is a refined international sports car now while the Camaro is still just a fat US muscle car.
The Challenger?
> Mustangs have an exclusive platform while the Camaro has to band-aid a sedan platform and put 3 radiators on it.
Kinda true but the...
You pretty much summed up my thinking on this subject!
I am in awe of Ford right now...
I may actually do this... and this will be the first Mustang out of 3 that I will keep bone stock.. Then again if headers do wonders on this motor.
Is the exhaust note for the 6 the final one? I like it. Im not one for V6 exhaust notes, but it sounds good. Then again recordings to me never sound like the real thing.
Overall I like the new Camaro. Not really shopping for one, but I cant say I dont like it.
Thanks for sharing OP.
I think that an 11.9 while not likely could be a possibility for the new SS with the 8 speed auto. Depending on how much weight the car loses.
The 300hp LS1 had at least 2 confirmed 12 second pass hero runs in great DA with great drivers.
But I dont think it will be anything that the majority...
I like the new Camaro. The only downside for me is the looks and how the base V8 is always more expensive than the Stang. The looks are too similar to the old one (yeah I know about evolutionary, not revolutionary).
So far it looks like on paper the SS will beat a GT in the 1/4 which is the...
