top speed with 4.10s?

[bobwb]

for a 2007gt, supercharged, 4.10s, it hauls butt big time from 0to115mph, wondering what kind of top speed it might do.

 

[bobwb]

forgot, its a auto. trans.

 

[bobwb]

it dose 11.79 in quarter mile at 114mph. hinking top speed around 125mph? that would be enough for me.

 

[arcwcb]

lol your top speed is higher than 125 mph, don't worry about that.

 

[bobwb]

these 4.6s must rev high? i am buying the car tom. used to the old 5.0s.

Fast enough to rip off your hood applique.

Theres only one- 100% sure way to find out, and I hope you live near the
Desert.

 

[arcwcb]

lol that's the fun way to do it

Easy way to find out. It redlines at 6000 RPM, so check how fast you are going in high gear at 2000 RPM and multiply by 3. My guess would be about 165mph, if you have enough power.

Pretty sure that's entirely incorrect.

 

[Wind-Farmer]

Yes, it is...because our cars would do over 200+ with enough power?

what?

Well the factory limiter is set at 149 and a stock car can hit that at the very top of 4th gear. So just guess from there

gt500

The GT 500 will do 185 with stock gears and no rev limiter...

The supercharged Mustang GT is lighter with a bit less power so I bet it would reach similar speeds.

This is an article from popular mechanics...

The GT500 is unique in that its speedometer is actually calibrated to a number commensurate with the car's abilities. A stock GT500 is limited to 155 mph, so it makes sense that the car's speedometer reads only to 160. Given that every hot-rod hatchback now has a speedometer that reads to Mach 10, the delimited Mustang offers a rare opportunity: the chance to pin the needle. Which it does, with extreme prejudice. At 160 mph, this thing still has a long way to go. In fact, at the 15,000-foot mark, where the Camaro was touching 170 mph, the Mustang is already at 180. And still pulling.

While the Camaro ran into a wall of aero drag at 174.4 mph, the GT500 bumps up against its redline, supercharger screaming, at 184.7 mph. The late Ford GT, with sleeker bodywork but only 10 more horsepower, is good for 200 mph, so it seems logical that the Mustang has a few more miles per hour to unlock. Given longer gearing, I'll bet this thing could hit 190. Still, I'm impressed: If you had this car on the autobahn, you could pull up behind a Porsche 911 (top speed: 180 mph) and flash your headlights in the international signal for "get out of my way, slower car." That's a rapid Ford.

remember , mine has 4.10 gears, no way it will do 160mph. i was thinking mabye 130mph at most, stock gears mabye. just wondering, ill never try it.

Bob my good man if you eliminate the factory top speed gov. you could go One hundred and crap yourself MPH. http://www.moddedmustangs.com/forums/2005-2010/43213-3-55-vs-3-73-vs-4-10-gear-ratios-s197.html Your tires would fail before your 4.10s quit on you!

 

[92importkiller]

I think that you feel your gears do more than they really do. You can easily hit above 130 with 4.10s they aren't that low of a gear

 

[arcwcb]

yeah, your 4.10's make a bit of a jump but it's not that much more gear than stock. You'll easily eclipse 150 mph if you had a place to test and had the limiter shut off.
