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

    the fact that the ecoboost engines are currently only "supposed" to be able to handle 415hp i would chose the new 5.0...400hp from the factory, a good tune, exhaust and a shot of n20 i'm sure we'll be seeing 475-500 rwhp without much issue..growl and muscle to back it up... that and i dont...

    Now you have to worry about bmw's???

    anyone see the pass time with the GT500 with the fat Hispanic looking dude driving it? had a KB blower, exhaust and tune with 315 BFG DR's...they all guessed it would run in the 12's and the S O B ripped off a mid 10 sec pass...now that is sick.

    header wrap??? good? bad? worth it?

    had it on headers on the car i had back in 2001, had it on there for nearly a year before i did a turbo on the car..there wasnt any rust under there, and while it was neat to be able to grab a header right after running the car hard, it served no purpose that i could tell.. dont waste the money.

    Nitto 555R's

    BFG gforce sports- i pulled consistent 1.9 60's with them. they are inexpensive and have good tread wear as well.

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

    i dont disagree that they are having issues, but trust me oil being burned at 1550 degrees comes out white, blew the seals in a turbo eclipse i had a while back and it fogs the road out :(

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

    if its the turbo that is going bad that is due to poor manufacturing from the company supplying the turbos. ford doesn't build the turbos, and if a turbo seal goes bad it will billow white smoke from the oil being burnt not black. i dont see why the quality wont be up to par in the turbo...

    Just a few pics and info on my 98 Gt

    nice car, but on question...why is your tq in the toilet? most of us make nearly 300tq with minimal mods...hell i made 302tq with a plenum/tb, tune and catback...i think you should be pushing 320 easily with your mods.

    vote for my pothole

    clearly none of you have ever been to charleston, sc. we have roads here that have 3 foot tall mounds in them. not to mention half the streets are still cobblestone.

    Well the motor blew up tonight...

    you know, i just though of something else, take some of the lines off and see if he used teflon tape to seal any of the fittings...its a BIG no no, should always use paste. the tape can break off and clog lines or jetting causing boom boom.

    Well the motor blew up tonight...

    we shall agree to disagree, by your theory i should have blown my engine 99 bottles ago when i put nearly 100 extra hp strain on the fuel pump.... its easy to say fuel pumps are "rated" to a certain HP, but thats not necessarily the way it works, they are based on flow #'s. a small 100shot isnt...

    Well the motor blew up tonight...

    where in the TB did he drill it? i dont know that it would cause failure having it drilled there UNLESS the nozzle obstructed the butterfly from opening and that cause all the n20 and fuel to go in but not enough air, but i can imagine you'd be able to tell something like that was happening...

    Well the motor blew up tonight...

    the only real power mods he has when he is on n20 is the hpipe, plenum and TB, he's nowhere near 300 at the crank and even then a 100shot isnt going to bump him over the fuel limits i'm running- demolet intake, plenum/tb, pulleys, prochamber and catback as my power mods and i'm not near...

    Well the motor blew up tonight...

    first we need more info...you say you "nailed it in 2nd" what RPM did you nail it from? 1k? 2? there is no way you should have blown the motor on the first test runs on a 100shot unless a) your motor was already poop b) you installed in wrong c)your timing wasnt stock d)you shot the juice too...

    O/R Xpipe w Mac cat back

    i had that setup on my car at one time...its loud, and fairly obnoxious, had a pretty ugly drone from 2k-3k.... people here seem like to like the newish sound of glasspack style mufflers rather than chambered, which delivers the old school sound so you'll get people saying that its boring...
