There are way more pros than cons to the active exhaust, honestly with a resonator delete and long tubes. It’ll be as loud you would want it too be, so unless you want straight pipes I’d get it
This is 100 percent true, it’s an updated s550 “is what most people will see”, if ford would have done something absolutely wild with the engine or given it a 100k interior for 45k. It would be a lot different but i agree they’ll be hard to find for a few months, then you’ll be able to get one...
The one area where i do agree was everyone for a long time saying the oil pump gears were exploding. This is one failure that i actually never saw any proof of actually happening on stock gt350s
And you need to remember most of voodoo issues are going to come from NVH related failures like the oil filter spinning off cough cough. Or bad QC which resulted in a whole lot of early 2020 MY cars having engine failures. It was a good 1-3 a week for a good few months, all at 25k a pop. If ford...
Oh you mean like how frpp had to replace exhaust manifolds because they kept cracking at the track attack and engines failing because of oil pressure issues left & right. Do ya wanna talk about how kooks had to add an exhaust dampener to the header so it wouldn’t rattle apart. Or how every...
Let’s start this from the top ford had alot of issues in development of the gt350, i was a regular on Svt performance And we heard all the horror stories which ended up being true. Ford wanted to lower the hood line by 40mms which resulted in them being unable to use a traditional twin throttle...
And everyone has to remember that ford tends to be much friendlier to aftermarket tuning than a lot of oems. You won’t see en mass a crap tuner of tuning software but I’m sure roush, Whipple and FRPP are working on something. Even though the carb process is a boat load of crap, seriously they...
2 percent under invoice is A plan lol
Or that’s how it’s calculated as of late it’s been a very mixed bag
back in the day talking 5-10 years ago it was a simple formula that was calculated on dealer invoice
2 percent under for A and Z plans
2 percent over for X plan
but back when i got my...
In a lot of ways i agree however they would need a true brand new engine if they wanted to get another 50hp or more. Higher compression, high redline, basically you’re getting into a very different and expensive discussion. Should ford invest the money into a some high strung V8, sure they could...
Let’s cut the crap here they could have gotten 500 and 530hp people still would have complained. Heck i know people who complain the C8 Z06 won’t be a torque monster like a small block “dead serious”
I’ve seen more and more posts about how disappointing the new figures are for all 3 engines. In a lot of ways i completely agree especially for the poor 2.3, y’all had an opportunity here to truly make a next gen 350hp 2.3 that everything the RS engine wasn’t lol but nope we got 315 like huh...
He’s definitely a moron because if he said he’d rather have a gt350 than a dark horse okay i get it but the mach 1 gtfo. That car is basically obsolete at this point
If you can’t afford to put premium in the car then ya shouldn’t be buying it lol kinda like all the dudes that cry when they get a Ducati and go wow these services are expensive. Wow who would of thought
