Is this for real or bs?

[Steedman07]

Fack dyno numbers. But if he must, slap that on a Mustang dyno and he would about 450ish..Better yet, If that car is making 536 corrected whp, it should be trapping around 125 mph..I call BS till that happens. Did I say fuck dyno numbers??

No. You said Fack dyno numbers...

hahahahha

On only 12psi ? BS. Also those are STD numbers.

 

[rayS197]

So why didn't you get a gt500 again?

easy! Trust me the Wife and I looked into it. In 2006:

My GT Loaded= $22.5
2007 GT500 = $70k plus locally
2011 GT500= 50$ locally

I am and will be well under the cost of a GT500 and be where I want to be. And as stated before a boosted V8 > boosted V6 any day.

I'm calling BS as well....not on 12 psi...

 

[Mystickeith50]

Just saw this....there is no way he's making that hp on 12 lbs of boost.

I never caught on to why some choose to boost a V6. If you have that kind of cash to spend on all the mods, why not just buy the GT? Just doesnt add up to me.

Same power, the smaller engine will accelerate faster. Plus it's fun to be the under dog. Look at the modular. Same thing compared to other engine with bigger bore spacing.
I believe the numbers. Saw the car there at the shop in November. A bit of work to get the E85 conversion to fit because of those goofy intakes.

I would call spending 8000 on a fuel system more than "a bit of work", but I'm still not buying 536whp corrected on 12psi through a V6. Sounds like the guy spent alot of money and needs some fake numbers so his ego doesn't get hurt.

sounds like your ego is hurt cause hes making similar numbers as you without having a forged motor

I'm fine with my numbers, but I know BS when I see it. Dyno's can be manipulated.

Custom shit costs money. Especially the one off billet parts I saw it needed. New injectors, rails, pumps, hat, install and the guy to figure all of it out since no one had done if before, etc.
Given the VCT, high compression and that fact it's running race gas, those numbers are not impossible. Especially thru a stick. It's almost running 1 bar. 1 bar is like DOUBLING the cubes of an engine. You don't think a high compression 7 liter can make 550rwhp on race gas ? A 5.0 makes 600+ to the ground with HALF the boost, and 550rwhp isn't feasible ? Come on.

 

[Steedman07]

I would love to see a time slip with a 125 mph trap. Until then...It doesnt fucking matter what the god damned dyno says. Its obviously very skeptical. So a time slip would be beneficial if he is spouting off about how much power it makes..

 

[jsnyng]

I wonder if he got the 7.5" pistons...

 

[Marc s]

I think it's possible. I put a Procharger on a new 3.7 and it made 441whp on 8 lbs of boost, pump gas, a conservative tune on a Mustang dyno.

4 more lbs of boost = 45whp.
5 degrees more timing because of the E85= 35whp

That's roughly 521whp on a Mustang dyno. I could see it making 550whp on a Dynojet.

 

[CPRsm]

So what are the wagers ? Sig control ?

That would be a wicked dd. Even at 441.

WTF?

 

[RedMustang]

My guess is that coming years will see an ecoboost version of the engine with those internals.

Ecoboost would rock in a Stang !

 

[FalconGTHO]

why would ford forge the 3.7? lol

The 4.0 in the previous S197 had forged rods.

As far as "Why do this" in general? Shock factor, "dare to be different", handling, insurance, sleeper effect.
