wtf,at least they are talking about something they have,and i would take thier word over yours any day of any week.:lock:
I think it's wrong for people to buy something based onone's word.

LOL,i am not prejudice,but you make no reference to your "facts" which are strongly stated as fact.Start including some of that to back up what you are saying.Cmon,fess up,you really drive a prius..don't you?

And what did SteelStang say that was so vastly wrong?
And how can you not say that the X is hyped?! There are a TON of X groupies!!! In literally every thread about F/I people will bump in and talk about the X. Even if it is totally not relevant. For example, there was a thread a few weeks back with a guy asking about turbos and how to reach 400rwhp, and people were coming in and saying stuff like "go X!". Sometimes it feels like I am surrounded by hyped out frat boys....

Wow,so in the mustang world everything has to make dollar to hp sense.Never knew that.Ron is a great guy,pure and simple.A pioneer i would even say.Always willing to try out new stuff for us all to see what the results are at his expense and learn from it.You take his times as an exception and i take it as what is possible for anyone who is willing to take the effort and spend some money.
Now,as for track times,yes, post the(typical)vortech times here.I believe justin at vmp holds record and kudos to him for what he did to get there.Also shows what is possible at best known.
Chris,i really like what you are doing to make the ultimate vortech setup.It just seems this is a winner/loser argument and i don't like to see that.

Can't find Scrmin and Asixer'sslips, but they ran 12's withtheir vortech's, like I said if droptop6 posted in the 1/4 sectionhere isn't a convertible he's in mid 12's, and for some reason it's not letting me post 4.0 collective links for times. So to name acouple screaminyellin6 has done low 13's on street tires andhamidlmt has done low 13's on street tires. They get Drag Radials and there in mid 12's.Search 4.0 collective forumsfor this if you don't believe me. It's all there!

Yep.
Best times listed for those mentioned,oh and nav to be fair
Navbtscret 2006 Mustang Coupe X-S/C 282.0 1.780 8.270@80.51 13.038@103.95
screaminyellin 6 Mustang V6 Auto S/C 330.0 2.199 8.691@82.89 13.450@103.95

Not hard to tell who is on drags:60ft. times.
asixer>unsure his times,but when he sold his vortech and had it serviced he found it(the main unit) was faulty.He could'nt break outta 14's prior.He has now ventured to higher grounds.Nav blew an engine trying the 2.6 pulley untuned for it(not related to his best time tho on 2.8 pulley).Droptop has been my favorite.Reaching new bound with a vert,but also had some costly breakage getting there.I also saw his custom vortech to shaker intake setup and believe it is a plus.Hamidlt has been very consistant,and once again is a track junky,lol.I admire all these guys *ps-sorry copy paste is hell on xp64,lol-
