    300HP? Thats It...Whats wrong with Ford

    Its kinda funny. I'm 40 years old, and have been around the Mustang game for quite a while (really came into it in 1985 when I bought my 1984 Anniversary car). For every change of the Mustang, large and small, there have been the complainers. For every change, there have been those who think...

    13.2 @ 104...

    As has been reported previously, short of the weight removal (jack/spare, back seat, A/C) the car was completely stock. The original thread where all the flames were have probably been deleted.

    05 gt or 02 ws6

    I can tell you what I would do............ but this really is your decision. Of course I would buy the new car. Even though the TA only has 6500 miles on it, the problem is that performance vehicles frequently have the living crap beat out of them. I am always very leary about purchasing...

    05 GT Dyno numbers in

    Well Einstein, since you are all knowing, I'm sure you already know the answer to this. :rolleyes: However, I will help if not. You are talking about a different dyno, on a different car, on a different day. Your standard Dynojet, or any regular dyno shop, has variences from dyno to dyno. If...

    Legand Lime Mustang GT !!!!! (Impressions)

    That was MSRP. I wasn't trying to buy it, so I didn't negotiate on the price. That said, I paid $18K for my '91 GT. It didn't have leather, it didn't have a Shaker 500 stereo, it had the build quality of a Cavalier, and paint quality hadn't been heard of, and there was no such thing as...

    Legand Lime Mustang GT !!!!! (Impressions)

    Legend Lime Mustang GT !!!!! (Impressions) Wow !!! I finally got to check out a '05 Mustang GT in Legend Lime. Our local dealership (very small) finally got a GT on the showroom floor that we could look at. As it was snowing, we decided to check it out. However, there would be no test...

    The official "How fast is it?" thread...

    Actually, your post is BS. When it comes to comparing times, if you aren't comparing them at the same track, on the same night........... about all they are good for is a guideline. Also, every driver is different............ and as many who have driven this car at the track say, it runs...

    Test drove a V6 this weekend...

    Sorry, I forgot about the Lincoln version. :) The Duratec 3.0 is a very versatile engine that is used in many different configurations. While I really enjoy it in my Tribute, what it really needs in my trucklett is a 6-speed auto trans. The 4-speed really bogs it down. However, it is...

    England bound V8 GT Coupe !

    LMAO :D Great post. As a performance enthusiast, I spend time on boards from most of the manufacturers. I have spent quite a bit of time on the Ferrari forums (no I don't have one) lately............. and I must say, in all the time I have read posts over there, I haven't seen nearly as much...

    Test drove a V6 this weekend...

    The 3.0 in the Jaguar is a massaged version of the Ford Duratec V6. It uses VVT and a different cam, plus aggressive tuning to make more hp. Mazda also uses a version of this engine in their 6 cars, but it doesn't develop quite as much power because it is not as agressively tuned. It does...

    O/T. We need your help !!!!

    While many may be willing to accept the crap that the manufacturers throw out, in place of their beloved products............ many of us are NOT. I have been in retail, and sales of one type or another for 24 years. It takes a long time to garner good will and a loyal customer...

    O/T. We need your help !!!!

    The untold story here is that SVT buyers also buy other Ford products. SVT products cause people who would never consider a Ford, to buy a Ford. Passion in SVT can turn a "Chevy guy" into a "Ford guy." These are qualities that cannot be realized on paper alone. If you think I am "full of it,"...

    O/T. We need your help !!!!

    As some may know, Ford recently shelved the upcoming Generation 3 Lightning. This was not a SVT decision, but a Ford beancounter decision. Remember that the next Lightning was to use a version of the Ford GT engine, and was supposed to be quite a monster. Even if you are not a fan of this...
