I own a 2008 silver 3v with a 5 speed like this that I'm specifically building for road coursing and it warms my heart to watch these ! Thank you so much guys!!!!
For those that haven't drag raced very much a little lesson. E/T(13.7 in this case)is a direct reflection of the car and driver as a whole package. MPH(107) is more of a reflection on the power/weight of the car. It will only vary slightly regardless of driver launch and tire/suspension setup. Any car with a 107mph trap speed can easily run in the 12s if the rest of the car is set up correctly and the driver is competent.
Agreed, when we look up times other S197s are running they're in the 12s with our MPH. We just need proper drag setup and tires plus a properly prepped track... and a good driver!
Speed Academy I hope I didn't come across as saying you guys were bad drivers, because I definitely wasn't saying that. Also did you see the comment I left about the s2000 engine removal and installation on your s2k removal video? If you didn't I was saying to just pull the valve cover off the motor and it slides right in with the oil pan and accessories still on it. I've pulled the f20c a bunch of times(I have vids of my old turbo s2k from like 2007 on my channel), just a little trick to save a ton of time and effort.
Guys get rid of that junk k&n cold air intake and put a series 3 jlt, delete the imrc control valves. And find a k member off an 11-14 mustang and put an electric steering wrack and get rid of that power steering. Those 3 things will improve the car drastically!
I have an 09 gt coyote swapped but i know a little something something about squeezing out every little pony out of a 3v with full bolt ons without hurting the pocket
To answer your question... No track guys don't remove their AC, they just buy a better radiator thats intended for maximum cooling rather then maximum cost cutting. Since you say you are done putting money into the Mullet you could remove the hood like the guys on Roadkill do when they encounter your same dilemma.
Doubt the sway bar mod helps you. They are ment to work side to side, not front to back. Put your "airflow diversion panel" reverse, makes the "intake" for it smaller. Smaller opening will be better in aerodynamic drag and the planes will make a positive pressure zone before the rad - better cooling.
Sigma Projects Sigma Projects i dont know the ecu the use, but i know oem ecu,s use the maf for much more than just fueling.., If the cam controlle use the load from the maf, the cam Will be off . f.eks Audi (vag) use the load Reading from the maf to controlle gearshift on auto. Gearboxes
MultiChimRichalds Doesn't change my position. Coils can fail out of the box for a multitude of reasons. Or with spark plugs I had a brand new iridium plug come with cracked ceramic.
I did a track day at gingermen with my 05 Mustang when it was 90 degrees outside and all I have is a upgraded Saleen supercharged water pump and it did great
Were both dynos done at the same place? Was the weather similar? There are a lot of things that can change a dyno resukt by 15hp that have nothing to do with the car.
That's exactly why I switched from drag racing to road racing. You spend more time in the staging lanes than on the strip. Ran a junior dragster when I was little (about 12 or so) and switched to motorcycles on the road course at 15 and have been doing that ever since. I run my 2010 MX-5 with my dad's Z3 M since 20. So in all corners and track days are 100% more exciting than straight lines!
Great video as always guys. I say take some more time with the car, do some slightly more robust ducting, remove the AC, remove the back seats etc... I think the car has plenty of potential, without the need to throw money at it.
Neil Magill the two mods I suggest that are cheapish, ditch that k&n oil filter, it's messing with the MAF, and get a vented hood. Other stuff that could help is wrapped headers, better radiator and fans, remove the foam behind the front bumper and drill some drag racing holes in the front for even more airflow.
I do not really put my 2005 GT on the track but I modified it in order to do so. To improve engine cooling I removed the OEM radiator and replaced it by a Ford Racing one ( M-8005-MGT). Moreover I also put a functional heat extractor on the hood to allow engine bay to get rid more easily of the heat. I can confirm the cooling efficiency is better ....but you need to spend some $$$ if you want to go that way !
A set of drag slicks would make a big difference off the line. Nitrous and centrifugal superchargers are both relatively inexpensive and easy to install and great for drag racing. Those two things I'm sure you would get under a 12. All that money spent on the cam and intake and exhaust could have made much more power with a centrifugal supercharger instead.
I also run an AIM Solo in my car and I've noticed that compared to the transponders we use for Global Time Attack, the AIM Solo was almost a half-second slower on average.
Can't remember but did you guys dyno with the same wheels/tires last time (at least same size)? Brenspeed did a video recently showing how the inertia in larger, heavier rims can drop the power numbers by 20+hp on a wheel dyno. The wide fronts definitely don't help the drag racing either.
So the mullet mustang is done, had so much fun watching it guys! But what's next? Back into badass2000 or the s14 or something else? Whatever it is thumbs up from now!!
Could be a shitty batch of fuel causing the hp loss. Sometimes if you fill up at older gas stations their tanks aren't the best and you may have gotten some dirty fuel or maybe even water also. Maybe clean the injectors and try again.
I don't think the AIM solo has any rollout consideration since it's a european system. Not sure how much that would account for but I've heard 2-3 tenths so maybe that explains the difference?
Hey Speed Academy, How was your 60 foot time? With a decent drag radial and good launch you should be around 1.6 seconds and Likely get low 13 possibly high 12 1/4 time with your MPH. I'm guessing your losing all your ET on the launch
here is the thing about drag racing, if you dont have DRs or "slicks" then you dont need to do a burnout, infact you do yourself a disservice by doing so. just go around the water box and spin the tires a little bit just to clean them. if you go through the water and burnout youre still going to be carrying water in your treads
i may be mistaken on what car your referring to. but the silver bmw in the driveway is mooses e36 m3. i didnt see a 5 series in the video but i wasnt looking for one either say maybe disregard this.
andrew mac Europe e36 is further up the garage. The silver bmw next to the mustsng is on Alpina wheels. Which has the lines of a old 5 series. I wanna say e24...but I could be wrong.
watched it again. like i said i wasn't looking for it the first time. just saw the m3. i see the car you mean now. no idea what it is. curious to see a video of it also.
You'd be amazed on how the tune changes just by rotating the MAF sensor. The airflow is not balanced , cross section wise , in such a short tube. Will need two couplings & a hacksaw.
5:56 "Guys who run these at the track, do you remove the A/C condenser?" No, you have something else going on. Throw a Mishi in there with some water wetter. When i saw you heat soak after 1 lap last vid I was thinking tune, because not a lot explains that. I know you got some new cams in there, what are you revving at now? 13.5-13.7 with tire spin and a stick sounds about right though.
That HP loss is likely due to K&N filter oil contaminating the MAF sensor values. Spray the sensor probe with MAF cleaner. Another likely culprit is that high mileage carbon was blown out of the cylinders from racing which can lower compression and power as a result.
I know I'm late here, but I feel with a nice tire theres an easy low 13 sec in that car, at 104-106mhp, but great try, I've done disappointed runs like 14s we all have.
I think you guys need to try again when the weather turns cool. Also....dont want to be a ass here....but you need to work on your shifting...still pretty slow...and thats probably costing you 2 to 3 tenths. 106-107 mph is a low 13 with a decemt launch. My 3.7 v6 s550 went 13.6@104 in shitty air (3,000+ft DA) with a terrible 2.15 60 ft. Should throw some drag slicks on it, and go for the gold lol
Thanks for that series but I really hope you guys get more into that powerloss. It´s just bad attitude to throw plug&play parts at it but ignoring a general problem on the car. I hope it´s not losing power becuase of some part from your sponsor, which would hold you back from getting further into that issue. Really don´t mean to be an ass. I´m just really curious what it is..
It's not anything part related since we havent changed any of the parts! More than likely its a dirty MAF, bad fuel, or something ECU related but it's really impossible to know forsure. The reality is that we can't just stay on the dyno and test everything since Sasha doesnt exactly have a lot of time to let us do that. He's already nice enough to let us on all the time.
Dynotime is indeed valuable, especially when someone is letting you run as a favour. Still, checking parts of the ignition system or the intake sensor etc. is not like you would have to pull an engine or transmission. I´m counting on that thing all car guys have...it will haunt your dreams :-D At some point in the future we´ll hopefully see a immaculate Mustang on the dyno. Thanks for the content anyway!
Have you guys thought of putting Ford performance 3v cylinder heads because just running the stock heads are really restrictive you can gain up wards of 60 to 80 horsepower easily then tied together with a Ford Racing intake Plenem then put a mishimoto radiator trans cooler diff cooler and a few other things I can guarantee you possibly be above 400 horsepower or slightly below without putting a supercharger or a turbo the stock cylinder heads are very restrictive and just doing cams yeah sure it adds 30 extra horsepower but you have to tie it with a set of good cylinder heads to see full benefit oh and don't forget a Watts link from Maximum Motorsports panhard bar just does not cut it
Don't do a burn out just drop the clutch and pull up I run 13.2 with long tubes, jlt cai, muffler delete, rear upper and lower adjustable control arms with 3.55s
Speed Academy yeahh i noticed that car was spinning one wheel during burnout ... thanks for reply :) i really enjoy your videos and it helps me on my track days
Sooooo, time to get rid of that mustang and get an LS1 Camaro or Trans am?!?! =D If you do make sure to get year 2000 and up only. The newer the better really as each year newer models have improvements to them over the previous year like better ECU, Z06 intake, some had Z06 engine blocks and the 2001 - 2002 supposedly came with Z06 clutch among other small improvements.
To help with cooling try to jet wash the condenser and radiator from the out side. You will be surprised to see what will come out of a one year old radiator, how about 8? Good luck.
Thats unheard of. They what? They pump up the tyres to heat em up and than they complain that they run hot? Wtf guys? And i'm pretty sure they left the high pressure in em when they went to the strip
We increased tire pressure so they'd come up to temperature quicker but that means less laps before they overheat. Which doesnt matter because we only had 1-2 laps before the engine would pull power.
I own a 2008 silver 3v with a 5 speed like this that I'm specifically building for road coursing and it warms my heart to watch these ! Thank you so much guys!!!!
Excellent! These cars are a ton of fun when setup properly.
For those that haven't drag raced very much a little lesson. E/T(13.7 in this case)is a direct reflection of the car and driver as a whole package. MPH(107) is more of a reflection on the power/weight of the car. It will only vary slightly regardless of driver launch and tire/suspension setup. Any car with a 107mph trap speed can easily run in the 12s if the rest of the car is set up correctly and the driver is competent.

TurboNFRStwoK 107 if fully dialed in the car will go 12.3s getting the 60ft really down. In the 1.6s
Guys get rid of that junk k&n cold air intake and put a series 3 jlt, delete the imrc control valves. And find a k member off an 11-14 mustang and put an electric steering wrack and get rid of that power steering. Those 3 things will improve the car drastically!
Emilio Cueto sell the 3v buy a 4v
I have an 09 gt coyote swapped but i know a little something something about squeezing out every little pony out of a 3v with full bolt ons without hurting the pocket
I do 12.9 in my bolt on 2v lol
i do 12.3-12.5 on motor with no aftermarket cams. should i buy a 4v to be a nuthugging 5.chode when 90% of them cant even break 12s lol?
So driver mod, run ac and power steering delete belt, and go to the track when you calculate a good DA.
To answer your question... No track guys don't remove their AC, they just buy a better radiator thats intended for maximum cooling rather then maximum cost cutting. Since you say you are done putting money into the Mullet you could remove the hood like the guys on Roadkill do when they encounter your same dilemma.
need to run a different intake as well so they stop drawing in all the hot air from the engine bay.
Funny how everyone is bashing on these guys yet none of you would be able to keep up with them on a track day #keyboardwarriors
Haha you're probably not wrong.
Speed Academy I bet they have never been on a track before
Andy Toledo keyboard racers. At least I can say I’ve been road racing and drag racing. Even then I won’t try to school anyone.
Doubt the sway bar mod helps you. They are ment to work side to side, not front to back.
Put your "airflow diversion panel" reverse, makes the "intake" for it smaller. Smaller opening will be better in aerodynamic drag and the planes will make a positive pressure zone before the rad - better cooling.
It does help with weight transfer front to rear on the 60''
is a bad maf- the oil form the k&n filter will make it read the airflow wrong...
Peter Høgh this
I've had this happen. I'll never run a K&N on a fuel injected engine again...
That should show on the air fuel ratios though, I'd assume they were monitoring those on the dyno...
What F1NNSP1N said. If the MAF was reading incorrectly the O2 sensor would pick up the discrepancy when they are reading the data.
Sigma Projects Sigma Projects i dont know the ecu the use, but i know oem ecu,s use the maf for much more than just fueling.., If the cam controlle use the load from the maf, the cam Will be off . f.eks Audi (vag) use the load Reading from the maf to controlle gearshift on auto. Gearboxes
15 HP missing? Check coils/plugs/wires? Sounds like a spark issue.
it's Coil-on-plug. they put all new coils and plugs in it already.
MultiChimRichalds Doesn't change my position. Coils can fail out of the box for a multitude of reasons. Or with spark plugs I had a brand new iridium plug come with cracked ceramic.
We tried old and new coils with zero difference.
Needs a tune, drag slicks. That should get in 12s.
From 1.31 to a 1.21.5 incredible handling upgrades!
I did a track day at gingermen with my 05 Mustang when it was 90 degrees outside and all I have is a upgraded Saleen supercharged water pump and it did great
Were both dynos done at the same place? Was the weather similar? There are a lot of things that can change a dyno resukt by 15hp that have nothing to do with the car.
Same dyno and somewhat similar conditions but yeah any of those conditions can change the power output.
That's exactly why I switched from drag racing to road racing. You spend more time in the staging lanes than on the strip. Ran a junior dragster when I was little (about 12 or so) and switched to motorcycles on the road course at 15 and have been doing that ever since. I run my 2010 MX-5 with my dad's Z3 M since 20. So in all corners and track days are 100% more exciting than straight lines!
Yeah, it was crazy how long we waited.
You need more rpm to make sure you can use the top of the power curve when you get in the next gear. Also 4.10 gears will help.
Already have 4.10 gears and we're maxed out on our RPM with the cams and springs.
I think it only makes since for you guys to do/show a coyote swap and how easy it is
Is it that easy though? I think it involves a lot of work
compared to cams it is! lol
Great video as always guys. I say take some more time with the car, do some slightly more robust ducting, remove the AC, remove the back seats etc... I think the car has plenty of potential, without the need to throw money at it.
Neil Magill the two mods I suggest that are cheapish, ditch that k&n oil filter, it's messing with the MAF, and get a vented hood. Other stuff that could help is wrapped headers, better radiator and fans, remove the foam behind the front bumper and drill some drag racing holes in the front for even more airflow.
what was the tune like? how lean is it running? I still think that's where the heat problem is coming from, no airflow doesn't help either.
The tune is fine, AFs were spot on, no timing being pulled so we really cant blame the tune.
I do not really put my 2005 GT on the track but I modified it in order to do so. To improve engine cooling I removed the OEM radiator and replaced it by a Ford Racing one ( M-8005-MGT). Moreover I also put a functional heat extractor on the hood to allow engine bay to get rid more easily of the heat. I can confirm the cooling efficiency is better ....but you need to spend some $$$ if you want to go that way !
A hood was our next mod if we were to keep tracking it in the summer. It seems like there are good options to get the heat out of the engine bay.
I just bought an e28 so I get super excited every time I see that one in your videos!
Haha, awesome! Check out the website, there are a few stories on it there.
A set of drag slicks would make a big difference off the line. Nitrous and centrifugal superchargers are both relatively inexpensive and easy to install and great for drag racing. Those two things I'm sure you would get under a 12. All that money spent on the cam and intake and exhaust could have made much more power with a centrifugal supercharger instead.
In hindsight yes more power would have been made with a blower but everything we read is they don't like any lapping hence why we stayed NA.
Junk the condensor, who needs a/c anyways. MORE POWERRRR
Especially in Canada!
I also run an AIM Solo in my car and I've noticed that compared to the transponders we use for Global Time Attack, the AIM Solo was almost a half-second slower on average.
wow! That is a big difference, still a great tool to have though.
Yea I agree. I figure if i can meet my goal time on my Aim Solo I'm doing really good. lol
What you thing about enclosed air box filled with dry ice?
Gedas alekveravičius Hmmm, Following lol...
Gedas alekveravičius dry ice is compressed carbon dioxide. You would have to keep it from getting in the intake and choking it out.
Mark French Maybe mesh grill in the pipe end, to box.
Well it was a good youtube series you had here, you earned my respect. Let us know when you guys sell it 👍👍👍
Thanks so much, we're sad to see the Mustang go because it's been such a blast to mod and drive.
How about some weight reduction mods ? Strip that Interrior ;)
Not worth it, we want to keep it streetable so that means keeping the interior intact.
Get a radiator comb and run it across the condenser. That's what I ended up doing.
Great idea!
Did you check the blinker fluid ?
That's the first thing we always check!
Can't remember but did you guys dyno with the same wheels/tires last time (at least same size)? Brenspeed did a video recently showing how the inertia in larger, heavier rims can drop the power numbers by 20+hp on a wheel dyno. The wide fronts definitely don't help the drag racing either.
So the mullet mustang is done, had so much fun watching it guys! But what's next? Back into badass2000 or the s14 or something else? Whatever it is thumbs up from now!!
S14 is making a comeback!
Speed Academy oooh yeah!!!!
Could be a shitty batch of fuel causing the hp loss. Sometimes if you fill up at older gas stations their tanks aren't the best and you may have gotten some dirty fuel or maybe even water also. Maybe clean the injectors and try again.
Very true!
I don't think the AIM solo has any rollout consideration since it's a european system. Not sure how much that would account for but I've heard 2-3 tenths so maybe that explains the difference?
My WRX lost 50whp with a dirty MAF, that thing looked spotless too. I heard converting to Speed density will get rid of this headache.
We're going to clean the MAF for sure.
Hey Speed Academy, How was your 60 foot time? With a decent drag radial and good launch you should be around 1.6 seconds and Likely get low 13 possibly high 12 1/4 time with your MPH. I'm guessing your losing all your ET on the launch
We are, 2.2 60 ft so its pretty terrible.
here is the thing about drag racing, if you dont have DRs or "slicks" then you dont need to do a burnout, infact you do yourself a disservice by doing so. just go around the water box and spin the tires a little bit just to clean them. if you go through the water and burnout youre still going to be carrying water in your treads
We going to get a video on that 5 series?
i may be mistaken on what car your referring to. but the silver bmw in the driveway is mooses e36 m3. i didnt see a 5 series in the video but i wasnt looking for one either say maybe disregard this.
andrew mac Europe e36 is further up the garage. The silver bmw next to the mustsng is on Alpina wheels. Which has the lines of a old 5 series. I wanna say e24...but I could be wrong.
watched it again. like i said i wasn't looking for it the first time. just saw the m3. i see the car you mean now. no idea what it is. curious to see a video of it also.
I was going to ask this too!
It's an e28
You'd be amazed on how the tune changes just by rotating the MAF sensor. The airflow is not balanced , cross section wise , in such a short tube. Will need two couplings & a hacksaw.
Can we get a full video on the e28 with alpinas??? Please???
Not much to show, 528e with a euro conversion and suspension. Other than that its stock.
What happened to the airaid?
Swapped K&N - intake test video coming soon will explain everything.
5:56 "Guys who run these at the track, do you remove the A/C condenser?" No, you have something else going on. Throw a Mishi in there with some water wetter. When i saw you heat soak after 1 lap last vid I was thinking tune, because not a lot explains that. I know you got some new cams in there, what are you revving at now? 13.5-13.7 with tire spin and a stick sounds about right though.
We have a Mishi rad in there though!
Wasn't is super cold when y'all took that car to the dyno?
It was but it was also pretty cool the day we dynoed again.
when they replaced the coils did they use OE coils?
We replaced them with AEM coil packs.
That HP loss is likely due to K&N filter oil contaminating the MAF sensor values. Spray the sensor probe with MAF cleaner. Another likely culprit is that high mileage carbon was blown out of the cylinders from racing which can lower compression and power as a result.
The Mullet project was awesome! Pro-touring Camaro/Chevelle/Nova in the future?
That would be killer! We want to do an LS project in the near future.
I know I'm late here, but I feel with a nice tire theres an easy low 13 sec in that car, at 104-106mhp, but great try, I've done disappointed runs like 14s we all have.
Im curious if they put drag radials
No, we only ran street tires.
I think you guys need to try again when the weather turns cool. Also....dont want to be a ass here....but you need to work on your shifting...still pretty slow...and thats probably costing you 2 to 3 tenths. 106-107 mph is a low 13 with a decemt launch. My 3.7 v6 s550 went 13.6@104 in shitty air (3,000+ft DA) with a terrible 2.15 60 ft. Should throw some drag slicks on it, and go for the gold lol
The shifter in the car is a tank so it's pretty hard to bang a gear quickly.
I have an 07 not built but try launching at 4500 and it looked like your traction control was off
Dang thats crazy how it did at the track! Im kind of surprised...
Can we see more of the E28?
Pete's daily driver, not much to report on it. Euro conversion and stock drivetrain. One day we'll build it!
Why don't you guys gut the stang? If it's just a track car wouldn't help to lose the carpet, deadening, and backseats?
So much work for so little gain and the loss of alot of creature comforts. We wanted this car to still be very useable on a daily basis.
Thanks for that series but I really hope you guys get more into that powerloss. It´s just bad attitude to throw plug&play parts at it but ignoring a general problem on the car. I hope it´s not losing power becuase of some part from your sponsor, which would hold you back from getting further into that issue.
Really don´t mean to be an ass. I´m just really curious what it is..

Dynotime is indeed valuable, especially when someone is letting you run as a favour.
Still, checking parts of the ignition system or the intake sensor etc. is not like you would have to pull an engine or transmission.
I´m counting on that thing all car guys have...it will haunt your dreams :-D At some point in the future we´ll hopefully see a immaculate Mustang on the dyno. Thanks for the content anyway!
So would you guys recommend the mustang for road racing and drag racing? Are is the price for performance just too high?
We would but get the 11+ with the 5.0L, it's such a better engine to start with.
Is the front going to get light at speed?
Did you install the oil cooler or is it factory?
Its an aftermarket piece.
Speed Academy Any chance you can move it and improve airflow to the radiator?
time for weight reduction , the Mullet Mustang needs a haircut !!!!
Have you guys thought of putting Ford performance 3v cylinder heads because just running the stock heads are really restrictive you can gain up wards of 60 to 80 horsepower easily then tied together with a Ford Racing intake Plenem then put a mishimoto radiator trans cooler diff cooler and a few other things I can guarantee you possibly be above 400 horsepower or slightly below without putting a supercharger or a turbo the stock cylinder heads are very restrictive and just doing cams yeah sure it adds 30 extra horsepower but you have to tie it with a set of good cylinder heads to see full benefit oh and don't forget a Watts link from Maximum Motorsports panhard bar just does not cut it
What about a 150° thermostat??
More videos like this that's filmed outside would be awesome!
eh those ecus have a learning curve similar to a 32 bit subaru ecu... ide relook at the tune..
Don't do a burn out just drop the clutch and pull up I run 13.2 with long tubes, jlt cai, muffler delete, rear upper and lower adjustable control arms with 3.55s
Whats your MPH? And yeah with a little setup we could go low 13's.
edlebrock high flow water pump trust me! then mishimoto 160 thermostat, it will not overheat
have the waterpump but not the thermostat.
get rid of all the a/c stuff and change your k&n for another filter brand
So uhhh whatever happens to the S2000?
Waiting to get the motor rebuilt.
Great video like usual! Now can we move on to that E36 M3? :)
Changing the rear end gears will reduce horsepower if you go taller, that’s what made the difference.
No one else notice the rear bumper light at 12:08 ??
you need the 3v frpp intake and get rid of the k&n for a jlt intake.
They're all going to make the same-ish power. No intake is going to pick up big power over the other unless its cheating the MAF
Great... more background BMWs that I'm curious as hell about.
Moose's M3, Pete's E28 daily :)
Daily driver episode please! :)
Lol my bolt on 2v has less then 280whp and they have 308whp and i actualy run 12.9 on the drag
So when you say "Ghetto" cooling mods what exactly do you mean?
Watch the next episode
You could’ve moved the oil cooler some where else and put a electric fan on the cooler
Clean the maf, preferably a better intake, slicks, and stop doing burnouts in the water box
that e36 m3 low key sittin on stands though
Hood louvres (vents)? :)
Those would probably help tremendously.
wait who has a e36 m3 with a ltw wing? e28 alpina?
E36 is Moose's car. E28 is Pete's daily.
Nice bmw e21 on alpina rims.
E28 and thanks!
speed academy Maybe remove the passenger & rear seat.. Mickey Thompson ET Street R Bias Tire will help.
A set of proper tires would help us out forsure!
open diff ?
Nope but we upgraded the clutch packs but the diff doesnt seem to be working well on the drag strip.
Speed Academy yeahh i noticed that car was spinning one wheel during burnout ... thanks for reply :) i really enjoy your videos and it helps me on my track days
Compressor? Software? Both of them? Mods! Mods! Mods!
great video as usual guys. Perhaps time to focus on weight reduction on a budget?
We want to keep the car streetable so stripping it isnt high on our list of things to do.
Sooooo, time to get rid of that mustang and get an LS1 Camaro or Trans am?!?! =D
If you do make sure to get year 2000 and up only. The newer the better really as each year newer models have improvements to them over the previous year like better ECU, Z06 intake, some had Z06 engine blocks and the 2001 - 2002 supposedly came with Z06 clutch among other small improvements.
We've thought about an LS project so that may come in the future.
I think you need to find a higher gear I stead of power banding the corners
107 is a pretty good trap speed, but it was clear that there was no traction there
It should be good for a 12 sec pass with the right setup.
I believe it. Bum some slicks off of someone next time you're headed to the track!
I spy, with my eyes, a clean M3 in the background...
That's Mooses M3!
weight reduction?
Beat the time. Close but no cigar!
just please take the seat out and take the left head light off so fresh air could get to the intake and put skinny's up front
seats*
and some good wheels and tires would help a lot
To help with cooling try to jet wash the condenser and radiator from the out side. You will be surprised to see what will come out of a one year old radiator, how about 8?
Good luck.
SPEED SHIFT IT ?
That damn shifter is almost impossible to speed shift, ask us how we know...
how do you know ?
Like for more mods to the Mullet Mustang!
streap it ??
Mustrang needs more stickers, get that horsepower back! VTEC?!
11:54..... no wonder he wears a hat all the time, Fryer Tuck haircut!
Please let that e36 m3 be a sneak peak of the future???🤰🏻😈
You'll get your wish soon!
That s550 flew past you lol
The beauty of a 5.0L Coyote!
Why not removing the interior less weight
Supercharge the damn thing already!
you guys should buy something with an ls in it. You spent way too much money to be barely faster than stock.
We're thinking about it and not really, the stang makes 80whp more than stock and is way quicker.
Can't wait for the card board to fall and block the radiator
Time for some cheap weight reduction...
Gut the interior and take out the spare tire and tools etc...
Thats unheard of. They what? They pump up the tyres to heat em up and than they complain that they run hot? Wtf guys? And i'm pretty sure they left the high pressure in em when they went to the strip
We increased tire pressure so they'd come up to temperature quicker but that means less laps before they overheat. Which doesnt matter because we only had 1-2 laps before the engine would pull power.
