whoa whoa whoa buddy. 15HP for a throttle body? i didn't even get HALF that on my supercharged GT. try again

UD give 15? HAHAHA!

4.10s giving .5? right... maybe if you're the best driver in the world. most people see about .3. one v6 owner actually said 4.10s DECREASED his time.

face it. alls you need is a blower and some sticky tires and someone will run circles around you.


EDIT: a tuner knocking a whole second off? STOP READING THE MANUFACTURER CLAIMS
+100000000000000000000 nanaki is right dude, ur making urself look really stupid[&:]

PS- I think MM once modded up a mustang 5.0 to race with other 5.0(NOS and Procharged) in drags at the 1/4 and they smoked everyone with only suspension mods!!!!!! If you can understand the PHYSICS of suspension mods, weight they can reduce, and pressure they can increase on the rear to keep the tires down3.8blackout you would understand how fast they can make your car. So shut ur stockass up 3.8blackout and race a real V6 if you got the *****, cause suspension and weight don't mean **** to you apparently. So my 230HP 6er should only take your 190HP POS bucket on wheels by approximately half a car by your calculation's when I would most likely take you by about 2-3cars. So shut up till you get some performance parts and see things first hand.
PS-never been to a dyno but that's the estimated HP people tell me and I've taken stock 05 on GT's w/my car. I also have 250lbs of weight reduction I don't have listed[:'(]!!!

I drive an automatic so I don't have to be a perfect shifter to get that buddy. And my flash tuner tells me 15rwhp 4 the TB after I reflashed, and now to explain the tuner:
First of all, all manuals could probably only get .3-.5 off their ET.
But for Auto's here's what you do:
1.Turn TorqueModulation off which puts all possible torque into your shifts-.3
2.Turn Traction control off, if you floor it with it on and your wheels aren't perfectlystraight your engine shuts down, very bad.-.2
3.Turn overdrive off for auto's, computer control's shifting timing and power-.2
4.Spark advance gives you hidden 5rwhp-.1
5.Reflashing it w/little to no mods finds hidden hp-10-15-.2-.3
6.Advance timing if your really crazy for another 10hp and now use premium fuel-.2
There's 1.2 sec's off your ET, PS this was proven by a mustang site, so if I overcome the article w/the dyno and ET slips I'll post them. Sorry non-believer's that's is all I can say.
Maybe you've never heard of these things, but this is why a lot of automatic mustangs go to the drag and win. Also, unless your a near perfect shifter, you will never see the numbers Car and Driver gives you manual for 0-60.

i'm not even gonna bother anymore. *sigh*

according to your logic of taking 05+ GTs, you're running right with terminators.

actually, i will bother. nobody is going to believe anything you say. you don't have track times, nor do you even have a dyno sheet. it's pretty bad when you're paper racing without ANY papers.
