I guess my engine needs a rebuild then. because I have well over 30 passes on it.

Dude my car is nowhere near maxed out so I'm not sure what you are thinking. Running a 12.60 on a bone stock all season tire means I wasn't even launching the car all that hard. My 1.78 60ft shows that. Suspension? Get vertical links and you are fine. I would even say upgrade the half shafts if...

I think you are just mad that you got proven wrong on what's actually needed to run 11's honestly. 11's are childs play for these cars. As far as Perfweld his 2nd motor was by choice because of his goals. Otherwise he had a perfectly healthy stock block that went 10's multiple times. There was...

You couldn't be more wrong if you tried. Don't need HALF of what you mentioned. And no weight reduction either. There are guys that have gone 11's on a pure street tire and a stock block. Guy had an upgraded turbo and fuel system. Did not have suspension work, sway bars, brackets or an empty...

yeah drive it for a couple hundred miles let the ecu adapt to the new settings.

I have poor judgement? Considering most of the blown engines are likely not tuned because most people that buy a 2.3L mustang don't care about mods vs the small percentage that DO. Are there some instances where a tuned one blows because of the tuner, yes there are. But often times I don't think...

Very nice informative post. However I don't think bad gas is a cause for most of the EB engine failures that we've seen. It's just poor engineering on Ford's part. There are several things within the short block that are weak links and have been shown across several motors to being causes. If...

Next time you put the car into S. Tap the down shift paddle once so that the car is already set up for manual shifts before you move. it sounds like you are catching the car right as the ECU for whatever reason wants to shift, and when you do that it double shifts. Happens to me a lot when just...

I feel like we are twins. I ran 12.67 at 108 with the same mods and same tires. Always wish I had radials to go back and see if I could've maybe touched a 12.2 or 12.3. Same launch rpm as well. Did you drop your tire pressure? I dropped mine down to 21psi

I don't think I stand a chance, but I'll give it a shot. I do live in Texas though.

Who was your engine builder? Just curious if there are any quirks when doing at least the short block. I plan on getting a block and crank, getting the block machined by a pro then putting rest together myself.

It would be the worst choice though. Probably one of the worst quality exhausts on the market. Full race street sounds just like it though and is very high quality.

I can tell you my car was night and day. Stock it went 13.64 at 100. Now it's a 12.6 car at over 108 with the mods in my sig. It is very worth the tiny investment.

woo that's a lot of reading lol. I'll check it out after work.

Your link is just to a general forum page and not an actual thread. And yes I for one did read the OP's post and look at the pic. And the fact that the OP has yet to respond to anything period tells me he's the idiot who made the mistake. He tried to tune himself and has no clue what he's doing...

22 degree's of timing? What does he think this is a coyote motor??

I've got a par on my rear wheels. I cannot say enough good things about them. One of the best tires I've ran on any car I've ever owned.

Paul you definitely know how to set these cars up with the proper fitment my friend.

Starting this thread to help my brother out. He just recently picked up a used 2016 Black premium car. he's expressed wanting to get wheels and just wants a simple 5 spoke design. Please post up what you got and name the manufacurer, the model and specs. Thanks a bunch in advance!

When I'm able to trade out I will likely go for a truck.
