    2010 Mustang EcoBoost V6 or V8 ? - will it come down to sound or power ?

    Both are good points. Since we don't have the prices yet or what the HP/Torque ratings will be it's going to be hard to forecast at this point which model will be advantageous. Nor will it make sense for Ford to have a V6 of this caliber and have the 4.6 available at the same time. Personally...

    Ford's 400HP 5.0 (Coyote) V8 spied !

    The EcoBoost is going to be in the 2010 Taurus SHO and have 365HP. The EcoBoost itself is safely capable of 415 HP with the existing internals. The F-150 line up will have this engine available as well. They've announched on Feb 18th that they have done a significant upgrade to the drive...

    Drifting World Record set in 2010 Ford Mustang

    I'm not a drifting expert, but the the impression I got from the guy on the video was that the current record was set by someone doing a donut/drift from a start position without getting up to full speed first like they do in normal drift races. The guy challenging this record is saying that...

    2010 Mustang EcoBoost V6 or V8 ? - will it come down to sound or power ?

    Since we all know by now - or soon will, Ford has approved their new V6 EcoBoost engine capable of up to 415HP for the 2010 Mustang. From watching and reading stats on this engine, I personally feel it’s going to come down to Sound or power. Do we want both the V8 growl and that power, or will...

    Help, Ford racing 4.10 for 7.5 axle not available

    Howdy Did some checking around. It appears that Motive/Pro 5.0 are not the best gears and Even installed by a professional mechanic the Motive gears whine. The mechanic stated that the Ford Gears and Motive gears installed had the backlash Set properly. He will now put the Ford gears back on...

    Help, Ford racing 4.10 for 7.5 axle not available

    Yeah, that's funny you should mention that. I got an email from Tom at Supersix and I mentioned this him, mentioning the the most common three, Richmond, Yukon and motive . Tom mentioned a brand called Pro 5. I have not ran into them yet. Maybe I'll search for those to see what impression they...

    Help, Ford racing 4.10 for 7.5 axle not available

    long tube headers

    Yep That's a good sign. If you have to take your car through some sort of emmisions test each time you renew your tags, that's a bummer for performance freaks. Talk to a custom exaust specialty shop as well, they may have some helpful hints or tricks, know what I mean. I happen to be...

    coil and spark plugs wires question

    Howdy, I can only speak for myself here of course, but went with the screamin deamon and live wires. Cool Blue wires that have super insulation. I think they had a different color to choose from. I opened my gap to about .065. Which is what this combo will allow you to do if you want. Some...

    Road and Track tested the 400HP 2010 Mustang and got a 13.4 quarter mile... (link)

    Here's some examples using the math giving the weight and 1/4 mile times = HP at wheels & Flywheel. This will give us an idea of whats going on with the setup and/or the driver. Things we don't know; reaction time, driver experience, specific setup, parts used and RWHP that they were able to...

    Mustang vs Camaro.....hope it's not a repost

    Don't worry about the Muscle part of things. Ford has already announced/approved the V6 twin turbo EcoBoost capable of up to 415hp, for the 2010 Mustang. It may not be available in April but it's been approved for the 2010 Mustang. A larger V8 is also going to be available later. Since the V6...

    Road and Track tested the 400HP 2010 Mustang and got a 13.4 quarter mile... (link)

    Howdy, I looked at the rating which is 400BHP which we all know is what they're getting at the flywheel. What it's not saying is how much of that power is getting to the rear wheels. That's the problem in my opinion. We all know the ways to get more power to the rear wheels. Even my Stangs...

    04 V6 supercharger??

    It's recommended to upgrade valve springs as well. While your're at it, go with some Harland Sharp Billet 1.8:1 rockers and hardened pushrods. This is good for about 20hp as well. I have a tuner though and I recommend a tuner for anyone doing mods. The tuner will take care of any idle...

    Ford is suing companies for use of Mustang name?

    This is truly unfortunate, but politics are a part of the business. I'm going to have to look into this one myself. I'm going to look this up. I have an avenue to use that may let me see what's going on. I can see the Ford side in a way. They have worked really hard to be up there with Honda...

    For Your Viewing Pleasure...

    I like the V6 as well. I'll be getting one when the EcoBoost is available in 2010. I think the early April release will still have the 4.0 in it. That's not bad since there's enough after market parts to get 400hp naturally aspired. More if you go with a Procharger. I say Procharger because...

    2010 GT500..when?..how much?

    2010 price guide This is as of this month. Sort of depends on what deal you can get and how close to Invoice you'll end up being. I'll be test driving at a dealer, but I won't be buying via the dealer. You'll just end up paying more. That's been my experience in the past.

    Which one to pick?

    Ford has approved the EcoBoost for the 2010 Mustang. It may not be available during the initial April 09 release so you may need to wait until 2010. Since the way they worded it was "which ranges from 300 - 415 HP, I'm not sure what that rating will be. We know the Taurus SHO EcoBoost...
