Auto IRS cars do wheel hop but only a small fraction of the amount of the manuals. So if those cars were manual and didnt wheel hop then you must not have launched them or you just never cared enough to notice.

Even live rear Mustangs were wheel hopping. My 2013 did more than my 2005 GTO.

Yup. It can and will if you over-do the launch. At this point IRS is developed enough to were the solid is kinda outdated in all situations, but are situations where they are still ideal if drag racing.

My manual SS doesn't do it much if at all. Nor did my c6 vette. In fact ONLY my 15 Mustang. The 13 Mustang did not either.

My M6 did hop badly sometimes at the track, maybe I was in Tour, not sure.

Upper and Lower BMR Trailing arms was the cure for me.

Both of my fifth gen LS3 M6es hopped, but not the ZL1. I still miss that car.

BULLSHIT!! Thos engines blow the hell up at those power levels. maybe they're ok at low 700s on a Dynojet. But I don't know 1 person with high 700s or in the 800s on a stock GT engine. You need to stop your BS bro. The stuff you're saying is getting retarded. I can see if you're a Mustang fan...although why you're here of all places still makes you a troll. But being completely ignorant and oblivious is just pathetic.

Put a bias ply tire on a manual and launch it accordinly and the car will be as predictable and consistent as your shifting allows it to be. Suspension wise...a $150 cradle lockout kit is nice to have but not mandatory. An auto....put any tire under it and it will hook and be very consistent. The bias ply does well for shock absortion on the manual, way better than standard drag radial. Many people going well into the 10s with stock driveshafts and halfshafts, especially true with autos.

Bullshit. It is a Mustang problem. My 5th Gen Camaro SS only had an issue with wheelhop ONLY on cold days and ONLY for the first 2 minutes of driving. Other than that it was completely fine. Mustangs have problems with wheelhop because the suspension is shit.

Just because you don't know anyone in that range doesn't make it a lie, it means you don't know jack****. Lots of blown GTs in the mid to high 700 range on E85 on blowers and higher on turbo kits. 2.9 Whipple kits make 680whp on the Whipple tune in 93 octane. There's 2 GT350s on stock motors making 1030whp (Procharger F1) and 1056whp (twin turbo kit). Ignorance doesn't make you right. Gen 2 coyotes are quite a bit better than the gen 1 in the 11-14s.

And even more bullshit.

Edit: this is one of the first things that pops up for me today. What coincidence.

When I see stuff like this, it reminds me of how I see companies always advertising what the cars they work on put down. And then they either 1, dial it back to something more realistic so it won't blow the hell up or 2, leave it at those numbers and they blow the hell up. It's no wonder why every Coyote powered vehicle I've ever seen anywhere making over 750 to the wheels is on a built engine. But go ahead and keep thinking that. And if that is the case with these cars, why aren't you making 800 to the wheels in your GT? I mean, if it was as simple and easy and safe as you say, why haven't you done it bro?

Where is the 1000+ GT350 with a procharger? That's the one I find a little hard to believe.

still a glorified pos ford taunus with horrific road holding and handling. polish turd springs to mind. 400 bhp is way too much for the s550 chassis to handle.
anyone that thinks they can drive a 800bhp safely is out of their minds.

s550 is just a little better than that pos s197..avoid both like the plague.

[ST1LE]

Man, these GT350 motors are blowing up left and right completely stock. Even the GT350 guys are saying they have lost count on how many engines have grenaded. Some owners aren't even on their second engines anymore. 5 minutes on their forum is all you need to deduce the facts. Sad, I would pull the trigger right now, no joke, if I felt like I could rely on the engine to be around in 24-36 months. I absolutely LOVE that car minus the obvious issues.

Its way harder to do on a blower. You gotta be willing to push it. 17.5 PSI on an F1A.
