v6 vs ecoboost

[Stam616]

I paid $23,900 for mine with A/T, 051A Package and stock gears. I think that's quite a bit less than a EB and it sounds much better, feels great and I get very good MPG.. As to the Premium stuff, I'm adding that over time since I will keep this car a very long time.

$23,900 OTD? Very nice then.

Don't want to be rude but you must be in negative DA, etc. I had a 91 tune, CAI and there's NO WAY I'm dipping into the 12's.

I can show you x amounts of real life videos of EB with a 93 tune, bolts on with a IC and they will realistically run high 12's if that. My EB started to smoked, CEL for cyclinder misfire. Took off the tune, disconnected the battery and traded it in 2 weeks later.

You are giving the impression that any EB with a tune can run mid 12's and smoke a stock GT. Oh and add DR and then hit 11's as well closing in on the Hellcat's, GT500's.

Maybe your EB magically had extra HP from factory? Something but for most EB's that I know, it will take a hardcore E30 tune, IC, DP, CAI, Exhaust to dip into the 12's -mid 12's.. Heck, a bolt on GT with a tune, torque converter, DR exhaust is barely dipping into the mid 11's .

I get it , you have the hero time but it's just not the case in real world with most EBs. My EB felt quicker than the GT only from 2.5 -3k... after that the 5.0 kills it. EB is a fun car, but I hope folks aren't thinking, hey I too can tune my EB and run mid 12's.. cause if they do, they are in for a rude awakening.

He posted facts from actually racing the car, no watching youtube videos. Just because you're a sceptic or can't drive does not mean the rest of the owners are the same. He doesn't even have the M6G stock turbo record...

Edit: Just looked and he is number 6 on the list.

I had an EB with a tune. Been driving manuals for over 25 years. And there NO WAY A TUNE ONLY EB can smoke a stock GT running mid 12's (guess it's possible then). I have experienced both, have you??

The YouTube videos I just used as a reference along with a bunch of EB that have experienced it.

Like I said, he must be in neg DA or something. ATTN EB owners.. let's do a "tune only" and go from high 13's/low 14s to mid 12's..

Sounds radically dudeeee!

Go look at the fast list, he is number 6 for bolt on cars. A guy on here ran 12.8 on Unleashed pump gas and an Airaid right after the car came out. I can't help if you don't believe it but it can be done and has been multiple times.

Well I guess.. but high 12's, auto, IC, CAI is more realistic than mid 12's with just a with a tune and auto.

All I'm saying is that its usually not that easy to crack in the 12's.. at least not without bolt ons and a tune. Heck, my auto GT will need a tune to run mid 12's.

I get it, it's turbocharged... Oh well all good just voicing my opinion.

A lot of guys in the 12's. Opinions are great but they should be based off facts.
