0-60 Times

4.7 FACTORY TIRES PP AOTO TRANNY MAPERFORMANCE PHASE 1.5 AND HAVE BACKED IT UP WITH SEVERAL 4.8.

Only 4.7? MAP 1.5 system numbers have more wtq than a GT and nearly the same whp as a gt, but the Eco is about 200lbs lighter. GT's are getting 4.5 0-60. What am I missing?? How do we get the eco under 4.5?

Where that torque is made and how flat the curve.

I currently ride a Honda CTX700 motorcycle. I have a good friend who has a Kawasaki ZX6R. I have 44 lb-ft of torque, he has 52. But up to 30 MPH I pull away from him - and up to 60 he can't catch me. It's only past that speed when he finally starts pulling away.

Why? I have 90% of my peak torque from 2200 RPM to 6500 RPM (redline). He's got nothing until he's well over 7000 RPM. So he's constantly short-shifting to try to get to a torque level higher than mine - and I have gobs from essentially idle.

A GT is incredibly torquey across its entire powerband - there is no spooling up, no delay in delivery. It's just there. That aids IMMENSELY in launching and 0-60 times. Given our torque really starts to peak over 3000 RPM, and the GT is deep in it by 2500 RPM, it makes sense they would still launch a bit harder than we would.

Weight and peak HP would be more important at the big end of the strip - after you got up and moving past 60-70 MPH. Less weight, more HP - you can keep increasing your velocity in the face of wind resistance. But down on the launch - it's all about wide torque power bands and delivery.

That's still extremely close to GT 0-60, but you cant just look at peak numbers you have to look at the power band. and we are talking about bolt on tuned EB vs stock GT, a bolt/tuned GT will easily do 0-60 in 4 seconds or below.

Thanks nihil and shanghai. I was under the impression that a tuned eco had a lot of low end tq. Which is why i thought 0-60 would be faster. ill have to take a closer look at the gt curve.

You are correct only 4.7 0-60 that was taking of at almost at nothing no spool up nothing with the new tune and 32 more whp and 20 pounds of tq more spinning a good amount in 1st I have ran 4.8's 0-60.

post up a pic of your acceleration g's id like to compare to mine

Is this an EB? Because it says GT under your name

Even his pic (2stangs) on his profile shows a 5.0 on the side of his car... I think he either got the wrong forum or just wants to brag about what $6,000 more buys you....

lol :lol: Even if it is the V8 it should be faster than 5.0 seconds 0-60.

I know ;) But he is running 3.15s so that makes a difference.

Auto with PP group and JMS module at 75% 0-30 2.2 0-60 5.0 sec

Still, he should do better than that, my tuned Eco does 4.8... And still loses to stock gts, which should do 4.6 or so from the factory. 4.5 with the larger gears.
