exhaust mods or moreso for sound rather than performance, unless you include long tube headers (even then the cost for the performance isn't worth it IMO and the car will become unbearably loud). you might notice a slight performance bump on the dyno, but i wouldn't count on any noticeable...
Funny thing i noticed is in the screens for changing modes, they have a GTD specific animation. Which is kind of a bummer on my dark horse when I go into the change modes, it just shows a GT instead of the dark horse š
I own a dark horse and even I know thatās not true. I made an emotional decision and I stand by it, doesnāt mean it was the best financial decision
Per the website:
⢠Front and rear lowering springs
⢠Front and rear sway bars
For the GT350R:
⢠Fully-adjustable, JRI race struts and shocks with remote reservoir
⢠Optimized chassis stiffening
I'd imagine the R has more customization, but I'd bet good money you can just get a normal GT +...
apologies, "my dude". it sucks that Shelby didn't put a voodoo engine in this to replace the coyote. But from the press release and the product pages, they are releasing this as an inferior version to the super snake, which has the exact same motor and supercharger on it. so it sucks that...
It's $110,000. Press release: https://www.shelby.com/multimedia/News/ArtMID/5059/ArticleID/141/Shelby-GT350-and-Shelby-GT350R-Return
The whipple option will probably add significant cost as well. They don't mention the GT350R pricing, but i'd imagine it's sky high
Insane blue balls for everyone who was hyped for this, but at the same time, not surprising at all. Ford couldn't let this car upstage the Dark Horse, which they claim as the track ready car. So the only way to differentiate it is to add the whipple on it and some suspension tweaks. Oh, and...
$110,000 š , just get a dark horse and a whipple. still have a ton of money left for any of the suspension upgrades needed. But people will eat this up im sure
Kinda surprised you only hit 17 mpg on such a long road trip. Iāve driven from the bay to LA multiple times and have managed to maintain a 20-30 mpg each time even with the supercharger on it
Ya, I made around 660 hp on my setup, but I'm limited to 91 octane. Have seen multiple cars in my area make around the same with their whipple kit stage 2 as well. Only way to make the numbers that shops and others have been getting is with some E blend, headers, or both. I see you're in...
Also is this the same Ford company that made this post: https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/ford-motor-company-announcement.164784/
and also periodically just asks for VINs but never actually follows up on any of the problems people post on here.
You say "the only V8ās that matter are the ones Ford puts into Mustangs." like Ford basically isn't the F150 company. Like it or not, the F150 is paying the bills, not the Mustang. Not only that the precious v8 that goes into the mustang is the same one that goes into the F150 too
is that even true given that the v8 is all over trucks in America. if you're making the argument for sports cars and sedans, then ya sure there are less. but saying they're all gone is objectively incorrect lol, hence my quote and reply
??? the post i was quoting simply said the v8 is not being offered anymore outside of the US. all i said was that isn't true as there are cars that are being offered with a v8. If we want to talk about price value, check out the dozens of other threads about the mustang price
This is not true?
Audi: https://media.audiusa.com/releases/612, multiple 8 cylinder cars here
Mercedes: AMG GT coupe
Lexus: LC500 and IC500 still are in the lineup
BMW: 6 cars with a v8
Sure there are not a lot, but there are still plenty of cars with a v8 engine around
