2015 Gt On Order

84Ttop · May 23, 2014

I drive a Powerstroke every day back and forth to work, I don't think I'll own a truck that isn't a diesel ever! As far as boost and the coyote, they really are built tough. Forged pistons from that factory and a very adequate fuel system help these cars crank out 600 flywheel hp with a minimal amount of boost and other supporting components.

But what can't take the extra power? The clutch? Tranny? Driveline/u-joints? Rear end? I just want a daily driver I can put 100,000 miles on in the next 5 years

I put a 450hp chip in my cummins, cranked up the boost to 41 PSI, immediately discovered the stock clutch was nowhere near strong enough for that! It would now slip at half throttle in 5th gear.., forget about 6th! $1250 later and a long weekend my 750HP SouthBend dual disc clutch took care of that problem, but I don't want to be messing with any of that on my daily driver. This isn't my toy....

I'm over 600rwhp in my 2011 5.0 and it sees around 2,000 miles per month. I do not baby it.

That is good to know. Did you have to do any drive line upgrades?

No sir. I'm still on the stock clutch, and riding the crap out of it! Stock engine, stock MT-82, stock driveshaft, stock rear end. (upgraded suspension, obviously)

@Sharad, did you actually shift into 5th on that run? sounded like it

Yessir- 3.73 gear required a shift to 5th. Powershifted 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, then speed shifted 5th.

Planning on swapping to a higher gear or taller tire?

Hi everyone,

Its the difference in the standard model to the premium model. Cloth vs leather, sound system, interior trim, wheels and tires are all different just to name a few. I know the premium gets have an 8" touch screen in the dash that i don't think the standard models get either.
The add for navigation was 795, the recaro seats were also quite a bit more as well.

Just placed my order today as well - here's the build:

Guard Green
GT Coupe Premium
Seats - dark saddle
401a Equip group
spoiler delete
18" black alum
reverse park assist
nav sys

Dealer said that today was the first day they could actually see VINs in the system on their way to the dealership - but no Guard green, so I went ahead and placed my order - whichever comes first...

They make new pistons every day, so why worry?
