Plus, Ford knows that a 2016 Camaro SS will not have more than 460 HP so why hold back for one model year? It makes no sense. Another reason I don't buy the rumor that the Mustang will gain that much power for the 2016 MY is because they would have to re test everything for that much more power and re certify everything for the following year.

GM is guilty of that as well.

04 GTO LS1 350HP, 05 GTO LS2 400HP.

The SSR, the first two years had the 5.3 truck motor. at 300HP..next year had a LS2 at 390HP

07 Corvette had the LS2 at 400, and the 08 had the LS3 at 430

Yeah it does suck and I don't see why Ford would do it, but they do.

I also do not believe the claims of 30 HP from a axle back. I just don't.
