That's with Ford Racing stuff...other aftermarket tends to be a bit more aggressive too.

A few thoughts..

It doesn't say if the 5.0 was a manual or not, and if so, if it was a GT PP or not.

My guess is that it was NOT a GTPP due to the use of DragStar wheels. It looks like all of them have a rear subframe upgrade and half-shaft upgrade, the Half Shafts are in the FRPP catalog.

Thoughts?

Nothing surprising about the coyote IMO but im really impressed with the eco boost.

So slicks is all it take to run 11's in a 5.0? NICE but im really impressed with the eco boost.

Error not quite.

The write up missed the ARH Longtubes. But basically it looks like it's just a full exhaust swap, tune, heavier rear subframe half shafts and wheels+slicks.

It's still impressive considering how conservative FRPP really is

"The truth will set you free".

So...a little more than just "tune 'n tires", right?

Here's the video:

Still impressive regardless. These are also premium models. Wish someone would get some times with the base models and recaros lol.

I assume you're talking about the 5.0 because that's the one I saw tune and tires for before, right? If so, it's really not much more than that. Take out the safety equipment and you have

- Performance Rear Subframe Kit
- Heavy Duty Half-Shaft Kit
- Prototype Off-Road Exhaust
- Ford Racing Development Engine Calibration
- Hoosier Drag Racing Slicks (Rear)
- Wels-Racing AlumaStar Drag Wheels (Rear)

I am wondering if the half-shafts need to be upgraded or if they just did it to make sure they could launch it balls-out all day and not worry. If they are needed that will be an issue for the drag race folks.

I'm afraid what a tune and tires just might do to some of y'all aha.

Auto 11-14 coyotes do this with THE right tune, cai, and offroad x...not really impressed with this newer mustang. Im sure it will be a nicer riding car but the looks of it are too generic.

Funny how khell86's picture and the video do NOT match...what happened to the listing for the FRONT ALUMASTARS?! And how much weight do THEY save?! Did they use those on the others' too?! Front stabilizer disconnected?! What ELSE, not listed?!

If you watch the video, "now you see 'em, now you DON'T"!

More Ford misinformation...
