    GTech results

    Man, looks like Ford did a nice job w/ the new V6's. What's the best time for a stock 5-speed Manual so far? I've heard 15.0 for the auto. Anyway, only things I'd say is in relation to the Gtech: 1. Trap speed will read high in the Gtech because it is instantaneous speed rather than average...

    Check out these Two V6 CAI's....

    Off topic, but... you trapped ~101 w/ just exhaust and K&N?

    I Think I Am A Genious!?

    Now, I only read to like the 3rd post, but 66 is right. Unless the ram air could compress the air (which it can't at anywhere near legal speeds), the engine is still going to use the same amount of air. Essentially, the only advantages to Ram Air is the same as any CAI, get rid of turbulence...

    V6 Ford Challenge Upcoming races

    Haha, 27 posts and you're a founding member. Anyway, I'm planning on coming to the FL race in September. My name is Blainestang on v6power.net, and I posted in that thread, too. BTW, anybody who can make this... it'll be awesome. Justins coming w/ his 10-second Twin-Turbo V6 as well as...

    Fr500

    The FR500 was built on a stretched wheelbase so you can't really get a body kit from it. There are a few parts from the car that you can buy from Ford, such as the steering wheel and exhaust, but I don't think that you can officially buy any of the body panels. People have made custom ones to...

    total waste to mod an auto v6?

    Eh, opinion. IMO, spending a couple grand on H/C/RR's to be a sleeper that will beat near-stock 94-98 GT's, RSX Type-S's, etc. and hang w/ Cobalt SS's and G35's, is worth it to me. To other people, maybe not, but I don't plan on ever getting rid of this car and I love it, so I might as well make...

    V6 to take a GT

    Considering my 6 ran a 15.5@90 virtually stock, actually probably slower than stock w/ the Bullitt's on there, even w/ a crappy 2.331 60', I think w/ some practice and some good weather, the 60' could be @ 2.00 and I would be dang close to 14's had I just added gears after that. You are correct...

    V6 to take a GT

    Sounds like you have a pretty nice V6. I think if you're spraying, you'll probably run where you want to be, but without the spray, I doubt it. The stock intake manifolds aren't THAT bad at flowing the air on a lightly modded car. Porting them really makes a difference once you port the heads as...

    V6 to take a GT

    1. No one w/ just bolt-ons will come close to 13.8 2. What do you have that you think you will run anywhere near 13.8? I am not trying to be a jerk by any means, I just want to be clear that it takes a few good mods, a good driver, good conditions, and a manual tranny for most to get into...

    V6 to take a GT

    99+ GT: High 13's - Low 14's 99+ V6 w/ Bolt-ons: Mid 14's at best I don't care what bolt-ons you have, no one I've ever heard of has made a legitimate 200whp w/ just bolt ons on a 99-04 V6, so you will not run high 13's/low 14's w/ just bolt-ons. Oh, and the Cobra was in the wrong gear or...

    C&D tests an '05 Mustang V6

    The auto 6 couldn't do a 15.1, but the C&D did a 15.1@90-91 with a 5-speed 99 V6 when it came out.

    Mach 1 vs. '05 GT

    So, you don't like the '05 or the Bullitt... what DO you like?

    05 GT Dyno numbers in

    If I'm not mistaken, the AC automatically shuts completely off when WOT, so the hp gain would be near 0 at WOT.

    Insurance Rip-off is driving me away!

    I don't know about your insurance company, but they tell US how to set it up for the best rate. My mom or dad is on my Stang, I'm on the Focus or something and the other parent is on the Accord. Finally, my little brother, who is likely the most regular driver of the focus, is the occasional on...

    6-speed T56, will it work with the 3.8's?

    I imagine that it would work since the V6's currently use all the same tranny's as the GT's except for some beefing up of the internals. Also, I know of several stangs that have Viper-spec T56's so I assume they work as well. More modification necessary of course.

    New '05 Roush Pics and VIDEO

    The "3" on the back is for Stage 3.... oh and yes, the interior is really nice. The unveiling was at Brandon Ford here in Tampa. It's the largest Roush dealer in the World, so Jack comes down every year to sign autographs, signs the dash's of all the Roush's that show up and such. There were...

    New '05 Roush Pics and VIDEO

    Sorry, didn't catch the price, though I would assume very near the same as the 2004 Stage 3 because the car and mods are still similarly priced. I did hear that "Jack Roush said it will have 425hp" though. Well, if you want to see the vid, I'm still looking for a way to host it or whatever...
