Need some input. I have a 2012 mustang gt, 6m, 3.73. I am considering putting a JMS kit on it in quest for 10's. The car is completely stock. I plan to run slicks and front runners with the JMS kit. How long will it last before something breaks. The car currently has 4100 miles on it.
How long before it breaks...something

No one can predict when a part breaks...you may get lucky for a while.
ford will cover damages caused by spray right?
going to blow out your cats first
Lol
Your going to "break" the hearts of other car owners. Guaranteed.
Ive heard about more NA and FI cars blowing engines than nitrous cars.
I am not concerned with the engine. I have a great deal of n20 experience it is the drivetrain that concerns me. The car with a Tune and CAI, slicks and runners has gone a best of 11.69 at 118 and change. When spraying, I will use 100 octane no lead fuel and the JMS tune. How much abuse can the 6m drivetrain handle??? This is my first mustang, been a gm guy for years. GN's, Vettes, and numerous SBC combos in my drag car. The Gn's powertrain will take ton's of abuse as long as you don't detonate the motor. The C5 vette on the other hand is made of glass. The clutch, trans, and halfshafts barely handle stock power.
ok I would do upper and lower control arms plus alum ds. DONT ever dump the clutch! Launch at 4,500 dont bog but ride it out some like taking off from a stop light fast. Im also a former GN owner and that being said you should have got the AUTO!! lol
The tranny and the clutch are the problems. Motor wise.. I haven't heard or seen a nitrous car lose #8 yet. Jms tunes are top notch. Monty knows his shit.
I've got about 60 passes of around 5K clutch dumps on my 3.73 car on a 28" slick. It's not an issue. However, my car is just a Procal tune car so, I've got way more tire than I need...which is not the worst problem to have.
Are you launching with nitrous? If not then there is no comparison.
Driveshaft with loops minimum. Clutch won't last a super long time if you are riding it....but what stock one will?
If you break the car three times, Ford will replace it with a 2014 under the lemon law.:banana:
