S550 Mustangs weighed on corner scales

[Noize]

Hi there,

I'm the site admin for evolutionm.net, and had the opportunity to weigh some S550 Mustangs at Cars & Coffee Nashville (Franklin).

Check it out: http://www.evolutionm.net/articles/mustang-s550-corner-weight-day/

If any of the members are on here, please let me know a complete mod list on the GT and Ecoboost. I can share data on 3 different S197 5.0 Coyote cars I weighed, as well as a Focus ST and Taurus SHO if anyone is interested.

Those guys post all the time in our middle TN thread in the regional section if you wanted to ask for more details there.

We all post under the Middle Tennessee regional forum like ManBearPig said! On my ecoboost I have Cai and Catback exhaust system on it.

Awesome! Do you own the scales? I frequent Nashville C&C but haven't seen the scales there before. Is this a normal thing?

Planning on coming up for next month's meet if the weather is decent.

Sidenote: Almost 3,800lbs makes me want to cry. Hope the white GT has heavy wheels and shaker pro.

I do own them. Last week was my first time. I'd be more than happy to weigh your car.

Close to 3,800 pounds with full gas is crazy heavy.

I wonder with recaros and ford performance exhaust - how much weight savings could be had.
