At 23 I bought my first Shelby GT500. I bought it because of the nostalgic reasons as well as the performance. I am on Shelby number two now at age 32. 2013 GT500. I bought it for the same reasons as well as alot of other reasons. Last of an era IMO.
Kaneda at the drag strip is where the torque makes most of the difference. With a high revving gt500 its easier to downshift and be in peak powerband. With the gt500 from any 45 mph roll and higher horsepower will make the biggest difference torque not so much. I am curious however to see the...
Let's start off by saying Indont give a shit whether its auto or manual or what transmission offerings will be had, but if they did eventually throw a manual in this thing it should drastically reduce the msrp in theory of the dct costs 20k.
A few posts up I posted a screen shot of BJ mentioning they had this car turned up to 820hp but detuned it by 7 percent for reliability reasons. He also said it went sub 10s in that configuration, and that of course Ford isnt gonna claim that because obviously that's not what the power it's...
Quick question? Why dont you believe him. He was a pioneer for mods in the GT500 world since 2007 is a tuner and literally has the ins with certain people to know this knowledge? He was even a big part of why VMP performance became what it is today. I mean I have a hard time not believing him as...
While I understand sides on how the numbers dont add up with it competing with zr1 and demon yada yada. I find this post by a very very reputable person interesting on how close they were.
To the people who LOL at the fact his fuel rails bent... This has happened on more than just his car it has happened on mine... and guess what... My car had no issues of such before I installed the new pumps. I ran on E85 for over a year and suddenly I install new fuel pumps and up the boost to...
After extensive, and I mean extensive research and owing a 2009 GT500 from the stock 440rwhp to around 770rwhp. My opinion is 4.10s in the 2013/2014 gt500 because with that and a tad bit taller tire you will run 4th gear out around 140mph. This basically the same mph my 2009 gt500 would run out...
I have DW300M Pumps, Dual VMP Boosta Pump, ID1000s, My car fuel system has supported Me at 697rwhp and 727rwtq that was me spinning on a Mustang Dyno. That being said. Now for some reason my pumps are intermittent. Below 3/4 a tank they run lean for some stupid ass reason. I am going to have to...
Hello all. I just wanted to share a few videos of me taking my full bolt on 2009 GT500 down the 1/2 mile. My mods are 1st Gen VMP TVS/w ported elbow on 20 PSI, Full Exhaust, E85. Lots of little things that I wont list unless people ask. Well I hope you enjoy!

This is about GT500s. I assume 03/04 cobras are similar but if you have any information regarding to GT500s this is what I am catering my question to...So I have heard of people raising their overall timing like I have to 22 degrees at WOT with E85, but when does everyone start pulling timing...

Well the title explains it. Enjoy. I havnt aligned the tips yet. I just wanted to hear it so bad I said F it and rushed the cat back part. It took me well over 24 man hours for the headers. I did them by myself in the garage on jack stands. I highly recommend getting one or two other people for...
I honestly have not posted in a while and have so many kill stories it would fill this whole damn forum up. So I have decided to pick my favorite one. A little backstory. I had my mods in my signature put on about a year and half ago. My car made 668rwhp at 16.1 psi and 22 degrees of timing on a...
Took the car out Saturday. Pulled a new PB off. Here is the video. It cracks me up because I ran a couple times and people have a hard time grasping it runs what it does with the stock appearance. Gotta love the 275 45 18 m&h radial.http://youtu.be/j4_tzwg2XoM
All,
So Here is a little backstory. My car has been running on E85 for about a year now. No issues. Originally when I got my car tuned it made 16 psi with a 2.4 pulley. Which I thought was odd because it should be making 18 psi. I was told it was the nasty Arizona weather. Long story short a...
Went to the store and on the way back I saw a black Challenger R/T weaving in and out of traffic to catch up to me. Long story short I got caught at a red light and he did also at the light behind me. His light turned green and he was coming through. He slowed down to probably 5- 10mph then my...

Long story short. I was going home for the night of fun with my Mustang Club when one my buddies calls me. He tells me he has a friend that just got a brand new hell cat and he is down to run. So I tell him It will take me a quick minute to get to mexico but I will get there fairly shortly. So I...
