How neat your it be if....

The Mach1 was the first flexfuel Mustang? 480HP on 93, 510HP on e85.

I'm kind of surprised they haven't done it honestly.

My first though was that this is stupid. But after thinking about it for a minute, it does make a lot of sense. They can advertise the car as having "over 500HP*"

*when using e85

Same thing that Dodge did with the Demon. It has 840HP*

*after changing out the ECU and running 100-octane race fuel

Ford's done similar with 87/91 ratings so I don't see why they haven't with e85 yet.

Since all it needs is a tune for e85..i dont see why not.

Unless MPG would affect it or something...idk

MPG would drop a lot with E85.

Yeah. Thats why i said that.

But maybe they could state hp bumbers for e85..but mpg numbers with 93...

 

[Adamone92]

Yes, "up to" 510 HP and "up to" 27 mpg highway

Haha. Exactly! We should pitch the idea

No way they would show the mpg with e85 bc then im sure there would be a gas guzzler tax or something at around 12 mpg..lol

And the coyote is flex fuel in the F-150. I feel like they didn't do it in the mustang to keep the horsepower gap between trims. They'd have the Bullitt inching very close to the GT350 for a decent amount of money less. Same thing with not having an A10 option on the PP2 because the performance would be close to the GT350 for less money.

Easy fix. Contact Lund and get your Flex/E85 tune asap. This car should be pretty solid at that point.
