The four cylinder phobia in here is laughable.

If I start routing engine/exhaust noise in from my car, I might go deaf.

But to your point, folks are allowed to form their own preferences. If they want 8 cylinders and the gas mileage (and sound) that comes with it, so be it until the government decides otherwise.

I don't mind a 4 cylinder in a muscle car but fabricating exhaust tone is pretty pathetic. I think BMW did it too with the new m3 as well.

It's looking like the Ecoboost 12.50 run was indeed done with the stock IRS. It doesn't surprise me really..based on what I have read the Mustang's IRS is a hybrid of the 8.8 and the truck rear end for durability.
If that's true..it's going to be a VERY strong IRS. |

Probably E85. Even with some tiny turbos you can make gobs of torque on the corn before the turbo runs out of efficiency up top. That would explain how they are lifting the front, but only running mid 12s.

Agreed. I want to know how to get my front wheels off the ground.

We also have to remember that this isnt a typical multilink IRS setup. The ILIRS in these cars behaves very differently than a traditional IRS.
