AmericanMuscle 2011 Mustang V6 Auto - Stock vs. Tuned Track Results
#31
AMChrisRose, GOD BLESS YOU! I have been going through hell trying to find capabilities of the stock v6 auto with 2.73 gearing, and that is exactly what I was expecting (and hoping) the results would be; low 14s.
This is exactly the news I needed today. I've had such a horrible day with college, but this has made my freakin' day! Thank you!
Also, knowing what professionals were able to do with it, I can now use that as a goal for me to set so I can get better at my launches. This thread should totally be a sticky!
If I may ask, at what RPM did you do your launch at?
I'm eagerly awaiting the video! Any ETA on it?

We punched it off idle, and had no issues. We might try foot-braking when we have better tires. We will have the video up first thing in the morning, and we are heading back to the track for more testing this weekend! Gotta get you guys the 93 octane results that you requested, as well as some CAI numbers!

My Vert gained .329 seconds using a 93 octane performance tune from you and the 2.73`s. I launched both stock and tuned from idle and had no wheelspin at all. I still only had a 14.303 corrected so mine isn`t quite as quick as yours.
I`ll probably get new tunes in the spring when I get her back out. I`m sure you will have made progress since mine was written.
I now have 3.55`s and it will be interesting to see what that does for the times.
I will be very intrested in the CAI results.
You do an outstanding job for us and we all need to be greatfull for all the wonderfull `stang vendors who make our lives more fun.
Thanks Chris, and all who make the magic of these tunes possible.

Eagerly awaiting CAI results. You have no idea how many times I added the C&L cai to my cart and went all the way to the last step before checkout on cyber Monday. Each time I had the logical self whispering in my ear "don't be an idiot, $300 for what?!?!". I'm one of the few who would actually rather not have the noise of the CAI. So if all I'm getting is 5-10 hp and a bunch of noise then I'm out. If on the other hand somebody manages to pick up 20hp with proper tuning, I'm in.

We had traction control off, then with stability off and there wasn't any difference. It will probably be a requirement to turn it off once we add a CAI/93 octane.
Thanks again for all of the kind words! Until we get back to the track this weekend, you can enjoy video below!

We enjoyed beating a V8 Trans Am in stock form!

Lol. Dude if I only made 40 ft of progress and I was shifting to 3rd I'd have shut it down 30 feet prior to the accident.
