2015 mustang hits the track

[Riptide]

600 is harder than 400 but I know I've seen people on these forums claim to have hooked up on the street with it. Better have a good tire, warm pavement, and the right suspension setup. I would assume.

I think most of those live in the south. With ~380 to the wheels I can hook but I have to go easy in order to hook, hell even a quick shift to second with the pedal to the metal I can get the car loose. I can't imagine with 600 up here

It wasnt too bad when I had the Mickeys on lol.

But the 295/345 stagger on AWD worked great

Will 345's poke if I put them on the rear?

 

[mikeyfitz]

Oh without a doubt on the stang. That was the UGR superleggera lol.

I had 335/30s on the CF10s with 0 rubbing. Poked out like 1/2" though

345s will fit but not without rubbing. You need fender flares to fit them properly.

Awesome! I am going for that Mexi poke look I have heard about in the 20's thread ... Gonna look bitchin on the LS

Gotta weld my axle tubes first though .. Crazy traction bro

If the 2015 still has the catfish mouth I'll still be sitting pretty in my paid for slow mo' 05 w/bolt ons. Which I can easily break traction when on 275 NT01s. Well maybe not easily

With direct injection, another 25 to 50 HP, and 400lb less weight, the 2015 model will out-perform the 11 to 14 like the 11 to 14 outperformed the 3v 05-10s.

With the Camaro upgrading in 2016, Ford can't afford to rest on its laurels!

The Hyundai Genesis only added DI last year and jumped a tad over 12% in power. So if Ford could hold at 12%, it'd pick up around 50hp for a nice round 470 Corvette embarrassing horsepower. Now if the new chassis proves to handle as well as, or better than, the Corvette the Ford could show GM how to make a world calss car that handles and that the average guy can afford.

the exciting part of DI isnt what the car will make power wise while stock, but what it will make with tuning.

It doesn't hurt that you pick up mileage (CAFE) or that you clean up the emissions (makes the hippies happier...I think) either.

 

[Sprayer84]

Fuck hippies.

 

[ford20]

It would be awesome if you could retrofit the DI to the earlier 5.0's

 

[05stroker]

I just cant wait till there is a wrecked one I can thow a BB Ford in. LOL

 

[Turd burglar]

The only experience I've had with any DI car is dirty ass filthy intake valves from no fuel washing all the carbon down. Pulling an intake manifold every 12k to clean shit up sounds miserable, newer Porsches have that service iinterval for valve cleanings, ridiculous lol

Did you really just say a 2015 mustang will embarrass a 2015 Corvette... Or are you saying a 2015 mustang will finally keep up with an older corvette?

lol

Also, by your statement one could conclude that you are average, and a Corvette owner is above average... Hmmm

 

[ford20]

Hey now, no mustang bashing outside your thread lol
