well... we don't know how good/bad the 2024 fuelling is as its duel port not just DI as previous. Which was a big issue.
Either way, if I end up with ecoboost i will def be reaching for a tune as soon as they come out
I agree with all of the above. We pay a premium here and do not even have the handbrake on the correct side, and now that it will actually be a 'button' it will be a cardinal sin to keep it on the left hand side.
Im getting a bit impatient with Ford delaying without any sort of updates...
I've got a Shadow Black GT - auto - magnaride on order.
I want to see exactly pricing and packages before i amend.
I had an ecoboost before so not opposed to that, as i loved the lack of weight over the front wheels, albeit nowhere near the shove the GT produces.
If i go ecoboost, which is very...
Ford is significantly underquoting this engine then?
Both ecoboost and GT engines got the big overhaul but eco pushing much more than anticipated and GT under performing?...
What i always thought was that forced induction may benefit with added efficiency where NA high HP cars might struggle...
the amount of comments on the videos saying '300mi is far enough for these engines!'... I dont think so. Hopefully they do show to unlock a bit more. The general feel in the US going by the videos is disappointment but i think its purely a fresh tight engine lol. and its doing the same things as...
oof... that is a bit slow. mid 5s... those are pretty skinny tyres for 480hp lol.
I got 5.2s as quickest with my old ecoboost with mild tune with MT82.
Managed 5.2 when i changed to mph, because red line was 60mph and not 62mph! so when i was in km/h my 0-100 was 5.9 hahaha
Sticky tires will get...
thanks i havent seen those two videos. will give them a look.
For sure, if there is a bit more then there is a bit more. For me, to jump across would be purely for the tremec, as i think 480hp-500hp is a bit of 'do i feel 20hp on a 500hp car. maybe.
But i understand the sentiment. Its like the...
My dealer is straight up saying there is no news at all and will let me know as soon as there is a peep...
The DH reviews so far, dyno's don't look that promising compared to the GT's... same if not lower? But some of the guys are thinking the DH might open up a bit more after 1000kms or so...
check it yourself next time. I said that to my BMW dealer who wanted me to go to 22 000kms! so they showed me the oil with inspection at 12000 and it looked like 'old school oil' when it had 1000km on it. it wasn't even black and hardly any oxidation. but anyway...
I still felt uneasy going 22...
excellent... you guys are probably doing the same, but just watched LMR pick up their GT and he was complaining about the 3.15 gears feeling a bit anemic.
Excellent win
I have my BMW for sale and not hyper competitive, although carsales gave me the green tick for pricing lol...
market is strange atm. some models can't walk out the door fast enough. But yeah, im not in a hurry, only have 28k on the odo so she is pretty new still! lol
Yeah... elections etc. as well...
I am still expecting March/April delivery considering 'all' the issues. Im personally not in any rush so it doesn't bother me too much. Painful for those who are going to get rid of their current cars shortly :/
