2015 Power numbers

[GrabberBlue5.0]

i can see 15 being 2010 all over again, as a new camaro is due in 16 and I'm sure it will make 436. then the 17 s550 will come with probably 450.

2009 mustang GT - 300 hp
2010 mustang GT - 315 hp
2011 mustang GT - 412 hp

2014 mustang GT - 420 hp
2015 mustang GT - 435 hp
2016 mustang GT - 532 hp?!?!?

lol, but in all seriousness depending on what the camaro and to a lesser extent the USS challenger does, a 450-475HP GT is possible.

especially if the GT350 makes near 600hp.

Is ford changing anything physically in motor or did they find power in the tune?

 

[BMR Tech]

Not really sure why people keep on comparing the 15 to the 10.

The GT in n/a form is not going to make any more than 450 hp anytime soon. And to get that 450.....it'll be a revised air intake, intake mani, TB, exhaust etc.... All which are heavily supported by the aftermarket.

I love being right...seeing people think it was going to be over 450-475, was comical and they thought they were correct, I knew it would see over 440.

 

[tagle281]

And its not that great looking....

I'm kinda thinking the same thing. As soon as I heard "more than 420" I knew it wasn't going to be a ton more. We all knew it had pretty much the same motor so why are we all surprised when its "only" a 15hp gain?

 

[tagle281]

Would've been awesome to see a 3.5 eco in it.

I think it will be awkward as hell to think I am hearing an evo or some shit coming down the block and a mustang pops out. lol.
But the 2.3 should run hard and be easy to mod, just please don't change the exhaust!!

I heard flowmast is going to be adding these to the line-up for mustang exhaust.

I think the new V6 sounds like a fun project car to have. Just mod the shit out of it and have a blast with it.

Exactly why I haven't touch the exhaust on my truck.

From everything I have seen, and heard, the rods should be similar to the Boss 302 pieces. If that is true, then this engine should handle 700rwhp pretty safely.

I am going to get mine, and make 750-800rwhp. We will see how long it lasts. My goal is to take the car into the 9's with only a poweradder, tune, and some minor suspension tweaks - on a DR.

You should be good at 800HP, I think around 850 is when you start to get into sketchy territory though. I think Tracy's Boss was making 9 and change when it gave way but I may be wrong.

Mine will make 550rwhp and 500fp torque by next summer so it really doesn't matter what numbers Ford says it makes.

N/A or with FI?

If these cars make 380-390 rwhp stock, will you still be right?

 

[tjm73]

Was about to post almost the same thing. 15-20% drive line loss with those wheel numbers would be in the 445 give or take range.

He may want to hold off on the "I told you so" world tour.

 

[BMR Tech]

380rwhp with an IRS car is about 450hp at the crank, typically.

I think the car will make around 380-390 rwhp. Time will tell!

 

[BMR Tech]

2011 GT Rated at 412hp = 370~rwhp on avg.

 

[07TGGT]

Who cares, the only numbers that matter are 1/4 mile and track times.

 

[BMR Tech]

^ Correct, if you drag race.

Power is power. Still needs XXX amount of power to run XX.XX at the track. If the car had 300 HP, it wouldnt go 12's stock.

 

[07TGGT]

My point is that no one really knows until it gets put to the test and we see how it performs. Making assumptions and crying about it doesn't change anything.
