  1. A couple performance questions

    Aren't these 1700 dollar half shafts from Ford Racing? If so, the aftermarket should have them at half that price before long.
  2. Performance guess?

    According to this article from Motor Trend http://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/detroit/ford-shelby-gt350r-mustang-blasts-detroit-with-500-plus-hp-carbon-fiber-wheels/ar-AA85gLx?ocid=HPCDHP The gt350r will have 600 of torque and 355 wide tires in the back. I think it will hook well. More reason for...
  3. Performance guess?

    I think it will be a little lighter. but we will see, you may be right. Weight transfer is only useful if you have a traction problem. Transferring the weight to the rear puts more pressure on the tire resulting in more grip. A stiffer set up is more beneficial if you have enough grip because...
  4. Performance guess?

    I was just thinking about the Boss. One magazine got a 12.1 hero run out of it but I think it's safe to say it's easily a 12.5 car. So add 100 hp, lighter weight, flat plane crank has a wider and flatter torque curve, 315 wide tires. Yes, I'll stick with 11.5 and wouldn't be at all surprised if...
  5. Performance guess?

    I'll guess consistent 11.5's It's not as powerful as the outgoing GT500 but it is lighter and should get better traction with the better tires.
  6. Ford Reveals New Ford GT - V6 EB Twin Turbcharged - 600 HP

    I heard you can get them for MSRP if you buy two:headbang:
  7. Dyno Thread

    From what I've read, the Mustang dyno tests in a "loaded" situation. Where there is resistance on the wheels like you would have going down the road hwere as the Dynojet tests in a way that is more like the wheels being free in the air with little or no resistance. Some tuners prefer the...
  8. New Shelby GT350 Mustang Revealed! 5.2L Flat Plane Crank V8, 500+HP / 400 LB-FT

    Yes, I think this is competition for the 1le, the track pack will be for the Z28. The R will just be super sick.
  9. Revolution Automotive Tuned car with JLT vs stock

    That's awesome! 375 rwhp to 450 rwhp 75 rwhp gain from CAI, tune and LT's
  10. Lund Racing +75RWHP, +135RWTQ Tune ONLY

    I don't see anything unprofessional about it. If he base lined on 87 then it is what it is. He should be forthright and honest, baseline 87 then tune on 93.
  11. 2015 Mustang GT PP vs. 2015 Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE

    Yes, all the reviews talk about how great it drives on the street which is where 99% will drive it 99% of the time. IMO the PP is just has a little more focus on performance at a very slight expense to ride. Nothing like the all out track package that is the 1le. Wish they would make a...
  12. COMPETITION ORANGE S550 MUSTANG Thread

    Awesome car Mangrove! I love those wheels. I think I would need a set of the black and a set of those and swap them back and forth from time to time. Try to get some pics a little further away showing how the wheels look on the car especial a front back side angle.
  13. 2015 Mustang GT PP vs. 2015 Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE

    To me, the 1LE is a streetable track car and the PP Mustang is a trackable street car. 1LE wins on the track, Mustang wins on the street. Just depends on what you want. Myself, I would never buy a 1LE unless I were going to park it up and track it occasionally and drive it on the street...
  14. BLACK S550 MUSTANG Thread

    Great paint on the pics posted by Haz93! Great improvement, I hope all the paint is that quality. There is just a little orange peel behind the hood scoop, but otherwise it looks as if it were color sanded and buffed.
  15. MotorWeek: Throwback Thursday | '84 Ford Mustang SVO

    I went to buy a new 85 GT but when I got to the dealer, they were out. The salesman wanted me to try out the SVO they had on the lot so I said why not. I was a young kid at the time. I drove out to the street, turned right and floored it in front of the ford dealership. It completely took me by...
  16. 2015 Focus ST...June 27

    Yes, I love the interior. I would buy one over a Mustang if it were auto.
  17. A quick look at the factory 2.3L EcoBoost Intercooler by Mishimoto Automotive

    Nice gallery, Let me ask you this: I read that the Mercedes 2.0 turbo makes an awesome 350 hp. One magazine said a lot of it was due to the very large intercooler. I do think it also makes a lot higher boost than the EB engine so I don't really know if one is more responsible for the power...
  18. Turbocharged or Supercharged?

    Maybe it depends on the area, but not around here, I don't know anyone who road races but I know a lot of people who go to the drag strip occasionally. Also, in the stores around here they sell 5.0 magazine and MM&FF which are geared primarily toward drag racing. We don't have any Mustang...
  19. GT350 spied on carrier.

    I know one magazine got a 3.9 0-60 time in the Boss, so with better weight distribution and wider tires (assuming they use the same compound) it should definitely put more torque down and go faster. 3.5 0-60?
