2014 5.0 vs. 15 5.0

[craigsix]

you should be shifting at 7300 not 6500 your peak isnt until 6700. i havent lost to an older 5.0 at the track in my 15 gt auto with 3.15 gears and bolt ons. n/a that is.

I had a 14 auto GT and it didn't seem any quicker than my current 16 auto GT (stock vs stock).:shrug:

Definitely not header size 1 7/8" make more power than 1 3/4" even on a NA coyote. His car is likely lighter weight or maybe he's a better driver. My base 13 GT came in at 3400lbs my premium 16 GT is 3900lbs and I can feel the weight difference.

On lightly modded cars like these, the 1 3/4" long tubes make more power. Is what it is. Maybe not enough to make a huge difference but combine that with weight, maybe driver mod.

Same bolt on's, longtubes full exhaust cold air. Went to the same Tuner. Oh, he has 1 3/4 headers and I have 1 7/8. 14 gt left me in the dust on a roll. Is it the header size that gives him the advantage and weight? Are the 14s that much faster then the 15. I had a buddy of mine in a 12 with a Bama tune and cold air, we were damn near door to door

Your buddy is out driving you!

Look into a MGW shifter and a better tune.
If you are neck and neck with a bama car, it can be one of three things.
1.) You are a bad driver.
2.) You have a bad tune.
3.) You are a bad driver.

Move your seat forward so you can press the pedal all the way to the floor.

Raising the seat up my also position your ankle at a better angle.

Make sure you press the pedal on the second honk.
