Well, then I guess I'm dead to you then.

18 gt 6 speed. 469 wheel with tune pmas cai and e85 only. Seems a little high to me. Ive seen 6g camaros run 460 wheel with the same mods but with catless headers too.

Honestly, that sounds about right. I thought that number was low. Man. I need some sleep. What are they putting down stock at the wheels? NM. He said 421 was baseline. Yea, so 469 sux!!!!!!!! haha. Tune/Intake/E85 should at least get it to 475. It's not forced induction so, they lose a little on the E85 anyways.

So, I guess we can close the book when fan boys say a tune and tire GT will roll a Zl1. This proves it's not even in the same league. I base lined at 564.

Nice!

That's a little more than a Camaro will make with those mods. but hard to compare different dyno and day.

The gain from the mods is legit. The SS sees 30-40 rwhp just from tune and e85. Mustang GT gains big too. E85 likes high compression and DI.

If its also like the SS gains from headers wont be huge. A good portion of the gains with those is just from removal of stock cats. Stock parts get more efficient every generation. e85 and tune is biggest gain NA mod for the SS.

Id really be surprised if they are getting as much as claimed from the cai. There are ways to manipulate numbers on a dyno to sell parts. many of them. Same for the SS. Independent test always show less than vendors/shops

This is basically the same chassis with some minor (or new in the case of magneride) suspension bits and a new DI engine and better 10 speed transmission that allows the coyote to stay in it's powerband.

The biggest thing I have noticed more than anything this thread is camaro people (who seem to desperately need to have the faster) car dismissing valid 1/4 mile times. The Ford guys aren't saying anything about the mustang being faster...only that (so far) the 1/4 mile times being laid down are absolutely comparable to the camaro.

Excuses so far:

Rented dragstrip
Cars must be stripped/not stock
Mustang drivers are pro drivers
Not all mustangs are capable..need special models
Auto transmissions cant chirp 1-2 shift...again, not stock.
Ford provided altered mustangs
Etc.

Truth.

That's why you don't see actual quotes of these outrageous statements the mustang crowd has allegedly said. But there are always those on here that like to stir the pot and blow things out of proportion of what has actually been said.

Don't be biased. I can admit that we make some claims here. But you guys make claims that are just as outrageous as ours. You guys constantly come onto our forums to troll us. You constantly come over here copying and pasting our comments to take back over their. You talk tons of shit over there. Don't act like you guys are all just good people and we're the bad guys. How many negative things and personal attacks have they said about me over there? How many of us have they straight up named and talked shit about over there? Do we do all that over here? No. For everything you bring up that is negative against us I can bring up something that you guys do over there. And I'd be willing to bet that you do the same thing or at the very least stir the pot Mr Innocent. We're all part of this and add to it in one way or another.

Threads can be fixed without removing the head. Unless it’s Really bad.

So you made a comment about me not doing my own work just to get proven wrong and now I see you didn't reply back. Again with eating your own words.

And plenty of us read those comments on YT, FB groups, M6G, and other sites. You can play oblivious all you want but you know what they have said over there and the ridiculous claims they make. Y'all talked mad shit up until that H2H got posted and now you're back tracking, digging up excuses, and trying to act like you guys are on some moral high ground. You didn't get to do your victory dance so I guess this is the best you can come up with.

Removing the head is not that bad of a job tho. I personally would do that than try to fix the thread and worry that it'll happen again. I never ran into that problem BTW. But I know plenty of people who have.

Right. Now all of a sudden you don't have time to argue when you brought it up in the first place and when you spent your entire time here arguing. LOL!! You guys are the biggest sore losers on the internet. Making stuff up...lol, that's the best you could come up with? Sounds like the words of a broken man with shattered dreams.

Right my dreams are shattered because you know how to work on your 2000 mercury mountainer... ya mhm and maybe you need to prioritze a little better, you bought two of some of the fastest muscle cars to ever come out but you buy a 2000 mountainer for what a daily? Lol. Sounds like you might need to trade in one of those toys in but you probally realized you cant because you lost 10k on each when you drove them off the lot... ouch

Talking out your ass again. I bought the Merc for snow duty only. I was actually gonna take out another lease on a F150 but decided against that. Plus after the Winter I am giving it to my niece as a gift since she is going away to college. So it'll be a nice safe first vehicle for her.

Both of my cars are DD. I even drove my ZL1 twice in the snow already this month, lol! On the stock tires nonetheless. I have a video of that too if you wanna see it. But the Merc will be used for snow duty from now on and it'll be sitting until I need it. If it doesn't snow at all, then the only miles it'll have are the ones I'll put on it getting it home. Keep reaching tho, lol!!
