  1. S650 slow......what's the truth???

    Agree- I saw that video and tried to see if any other videos posted listed the mods on the S550 ....never found anything saying if car was stock or modded That being said- its kind of strange all of these back to back dyno videos but no one is filming a damn roll race - I would have thought...
  2. I have gone over 4500 rpm multiple times

    no.....there is nothing that says you cant go over 4500RPM ... so much misinformation on this subject (someone was referencing a generic article that had nothing to do with the S650) On the S550 they said no redline for first 100 miles and then no track days for first 1000 Vary your RPM- Do...
  3. S650 slow......what's the truth???

    In fact the more I think about it...we sound like a bunch of whiners... myself included... I mean the fact that EPA and CARB requirements are most likely MUCH stricter then before and Ford was able to still produce a car that matches performance... maybe we need to all STFU and just say thank...
  4. S650 slow......what's the truth???

    Maybe we should all be less mad at Ford and more upset with the mandates that force them to neuter the car? I mean if anything they are the only company that was able to come up with a formula to keep building V8 muscle cars. Even if it ends up being .1 seconds slower... the fact they found a...
  5. S650 slow......what's the truth???

    The minimal gains make more sense to me given the dual air intake design... more air flow to compensate for the carbon traps.. It would explain why the Whipple goes back to a single intake. Given stricter carb requirements every year would not be surprised if this has an effect on what...
  6. S650 slow......what's the truth???

    I should add- never go drive a GT500 - then your car will feel slow after.....ask me how I know lol
  7. S650 slow......what's the truth???

    Slow relative to what? : ) Compared to a Bugatti Cheyron ...its slow Compared to your 13 GT If you are going from 6A auto to 10A auto- its going to feel like a rocket ship 6M to 6M - still should feel a bit quicker- but not the same delta as going from 6A to 10A Going from a 13GT to a...
  8. March orderers that don’t have their cars yet, there’s still hope

    There are Dark Horses in Southern CA for 10K over ..... maybe could talk them down to 5K over which is not unreasonable for a new specialty Mustang seeing its first deliveries
  9. 4500 rpm limiter

    You will be fine. Working in the automotive aftermarket I have had interactions with many of the OEs..asked them as we were asked to dyno preproductioncars with no miles all the time. I also have friends that build motors for multi million dollars cars (they restore them as well) whom have built...
  10. So whats the general thoughts on 7gen Dud or Stud!!!

    Yeah unfortunately most of these videos dont list DA - but enough of them out there I wouldnt say they are "hero" runs - not like just one guy ran an 11.9 and all others running 12.30s I think the only way to be sure is to have a video of an S550 vs S650 which is kind of weird - no one has...
  11. So whats the general thoughts on 7gen Dud or Stud!!!

    I am going to say this right now- anyone who pays 80K + for a DH instead of a low mileage GT500 is crazy - see hand That and I think everyone was running around before the deliveries started talking about how it was going to be so much faster because of the extra hp and getting frustrated...
  12. 4500 rpm limiter

    You would be the first......guys were taking new 24s straight to the dyno.....you need to get your car back to the dealer
  13. So whats the general thoughts on 7gen Dud or Stud!!!

    100% this- I have owned 2 10A cars and neither had a break in period on the transmission- after the first 100 miles it was full send - neither got any faster after 1000 miles or anything like that
  14. 4500 rpm limiter

    I would get it back to the dealer ASAP - 100% shouldnt be doing that
  15. Where does it say there is a 1000 mile break in period?

    Yes agree- beating on a car without warming it up is asking for problems...... Wasnt saying anything negative about those waiting - more just curious as my car was a 100 mile break in before going for a quick run - 1000 miles for full on track days Was curious if there was anything saying...
  16. Where does it say there is a 1000 mile break in period?

    I was curious as I have never seen this on Mustangs before- but I just read through the owners manual and I don't see any mention of a 1000 mile break in period ..... The only thing the owners manual refers to is tires .. BREAKING-IN You need to break in new tires for approximately 300 mi (480...
  17. What ever happened to the Ford "cracking down on" ADMs?

    3K under MSRP - they are out there but you have to leave LA/OC metro area https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/vehicledetails.xhtml?listingId=693147418&allListingType=all-cars&city=Yorba...
  18. Bad taste

    2 years from now when your cruising top down Coyote rumbling you won't remember the extra 1000
  19. How Accurate are the Track App Times

    Yes... post your times! Just remember if you are running on the streets don't be too disappointed if the times are slower then expected... big difference between a prepped track and the street... have fun!
  20. 2024 Dark Horse Motortrend Review: We didn’t expect it to break a MotorTrend performance record

    I'm still trying to figure out how Motor Trend got such horrible 0-60 times for the GT500 as well when everyone else was in the low 3s ... as I mentioned ....the GT500 will put a hurting on my car too so nothing against the DH
