Thinking about taking the leap. Currently have factory IM and airbox on my 2012 GT automatic. Other mods are Circle D 5C converter, 47lb injectors for E85, Mike Rousch tuning, and an O/R X-pipe. 3.15 gear and 27" tire (255/60-15 M/T DR), so I'm going through the traps at 7000rpm at 116mph in...
Some of you may remember that I had a white 2011 GT last year (auto, Circle D, Boss manifold, E85, 11.40s), which I sold and regretted ever since. So....I bought another one yesterday.
This one is a 2012 'base' GT (cloth interior), automatic. Only option is the back-up assist system thing...
This is my 13th (I think?) Mustang. I had a convertible C5 for a bit but decided to get back into an S197. My last Mustang was a 2011 GT auto with a Circle D converter, Boss manifold, Mike Rousch tune (the best!), off road x-pipe, E85, that ran 11.40s. I've had a Vortech-then-turbo 2005 GT, KB...
So obviously some members here have been bickering back and forth about whose transbrake setup is best. I'm not too interested in sifting through the pissing contests, but I would like to know how much a car like mine (Boss manifold, 5C converter, 3.31 gears as the basic mods) would gain with...
Had a great day at Rock Falls Raceway today. Opening day at the local track. I made 15 passes (could have made a lot more if I wanted), and I only was there for 3-1/2 hours. My previous best ever pass was an 11.578 at 118.3, last season, in ~1100' DA, on pump gas. Today ranged from zero to about...
Not big dyno numbers but this is what the car picked up by switching to E85. Peak power is only up by 9hp but the midrange torque is up 20+ at some places and the curve looks much better. It should pull a lot harder after shifts now in the 5000-5500 range. Also the old pull was with JBA mufflers...
