    V6 MT Rev Limit?

    I believe when I installed my Predator tune it showed 6100 as the default rev limit on my manual.

    Pwrhwse CAI

    I just read an article in 5.0 magazine on CAI intakes for the '05 GTs and there was a performance evaluation done on about 11 or 12 different intakes and Mike Bowen's intake did pretty well compared to the others. I don't have exact figures in front of me as I read it at the book store and am...

    Shelby CS6 is out

    Here is some more info that might be of interest: "Day 2: SEMA SHOW By Huw Evans They say that trends are often cyclical, and if this year’s Specialty Equipment Market Association show is anything to go by, it appears that it’s the ‘60s all over again. The S197 Mustang has made an...

    Shelby CS6 is out

    I believe it is around $14-15 G for the whole shot (body/performance pkg). Alot of scratch in most peoples opinions I'm sure, but if I was a rich man would have no problem spending it for the looks/muscle!!! I will just bide my time until I can afford some huffin of some sort and keep the...

    Shelby CS6 is out

    I just read this on one of the blogger sites and it is supposedly from someone at Shelby Auto regarding the CS6: "Posted Nov 7, 2005, 10:57 AM ET by Rich Sparkman For those of you who have a Mustang V6, we (Shelby Automobiles) now offer a nifty upgrade package that will give you 350HP. It's...

    Shelby CS6 is out

    Hey scrming, I did a little research cuz ya know at the ripe ole age of 44 sometimes things slip a bit and here is what I found out about ole CS's creations of the 80s: "...Carroll Shelby became a manufacturer (again) with the creation of Shelby Automobiles. The last 500 Omni GLH's built were...

    Shelby CS6 is out

    Yeah, I do (I'm 44), I remember the '86 GLH Turbo (nicknamed "Goes Like Hell") and the Shelby Charger Turbo. These cars were respectable for their time (as our V6's are in stock form). That was an era of low compression motors and there were not very many high performance cars on the market...

    Shelby CS6 is out

    "Simply having the Shelby name behind a v6 means great things could happen in the future for us". Zodiac, you hit the nail on the head with that statement. Yeah, I don't need vindication (never do) for what I choose to ride, and I might have misunderstood Roni's comments (I apologize)...

    Shelby CS6 is out

    Yeah, I know it takes deep pockets to get into the 10s on any car and I said "if" I did this. But it looks like with pwrhws' turbo it won't take much more than $5000 or so to get into the 11s. Insurance in Arkansas must be real cheap, cuz here in Motown it is as much as a car payment (and I...

    Shelby CS6 is out

    Have you ever heard of the AFTERMARKET??? Most of the stuff on this car will be available for purchase. You don't have to buy the car! In fact, I bet there will not be many produced. The reason why I chose the "six" this time around (I have owned four V8 stangs) is to build it up to kick...

    The Shelby GT350 returns as a V6?!

    An important thing to remember is that this will create an aftermarket for those who want to make a CS6 clone and will buy select parts to augment their V6 stangs and not necessarily buy the car itself. I for one might be interested in the wheels and the door decals. I personally think that...

    4th month in a row of lackluster Mustang sales

    Here in Detroit, the only GTs you can find at the dealers are verts, where are the hardtops at? Why isn't there any hardtops? There are lots of V6s and verts. Is Ford holding down the numbers on the hardtop GTs for some reason? If so, why? I cannot believe that those looking for a GT would...

    Shelby CS6 is out

    I think I hear Ol' Carrol knocking on the doors of the GT trolls and saying "the 4.0L is worthy of attention". I don't get the comment "GT Tires and wheels, GT grill..." I personally think the V6 looks better with the stock grill and the SC6 doesn't even have a GT grill, so WTF! As far as...

    V6 goes 11's!

    Wow! 400 horse and over 440 ft/lb of torque is pretty impressive for a V6 on a single turbo! Pwrhws, you are definitely a power pioneer in the 4.0L realm!

    Last Night.....

    Nice ride! A tuner (or tuneable performance programmer) is what you use to upgrade (or flash) your engine's computer that recalibrates things such as timing, fuel, spark and other variables and usually comes with 2 to 3 tunes that you can choose that comes from the factory. You can also use it...

    C&L Intake

    To all who are interested I just read this on another mustang forum: "Just got off the phone with C&L. They are now production complete with the new V6 CAI. It matches the GT version that has proven to be very popular. Today they used a V6 Automatic and their new V6 CAI on the Dyno. They...
