Default first shelby gt500 in the 8's
View Video on FQuick

What are the limits of the factory stock Shelby GT500 Production 5.4L 4V engine? Well, with two 67mm Precision turbos and a custom tune, Evolution Performance yielded a 8 second pass. Damn. That is impressive. On the dyno, 22.5 lbs of boost ended up blasting the charts with 1019 rwhp / 1016 rwtq. DO WANT.

They arent on much boost at all. They ran more boost when it was a supercharged car.
