Someone is exaggerating. A lot.
That's like saying "GM had to add a bigger engine to compete with Ford!"
For someone that was dead wrong about the new 5.0, you're still acting cocky.
Don't you have a long list of apologies to make?
One posted in this same forum running 12.6 or 12.7s. No stock 4th or 5th gen has went there as far as I know.

You should know better about the 5th Gen; its faster than you think. Consult the slip time list on 5th gen forums..

ke<in lol thinks he knows about a car that just came out lol "ok tool". I seen with my eyes a bolt on cam only ls3 camaro reach 500rwhp. Can the pony do that with just a cam swap??

A) The ls3 has roughly ~1.2 more liters of displacement
B) 4V motors do not see big gains from cam swaps
Did you seen it, or saw it btw?

Its funny how the hp/liter is a stupid argument either way; when its to be positive plp say:''yeah, its making 415hp with only 5.0l, so its way better than a 426hp 6.2l''
But when its time to go with excuses:''Well its normal, its only a 5.0l, so it cant reach the same hp level given the same mods''.
We dont even know yet what will happen. Maybe this car is going to be total beast with cams. I'm sure it'll be better than the last Ford 4.6l.

Seems about right; I have the same dyno and I've beat 118-120mph cars(very very close race and I'm 3450lbs full weight, no skinnies and 3:42). Have I done 11s timeslip at 118-119mph? Hell no, my car is not setup for the 1/4 at all like this 5.0l.

Yeah, but you don't trap 119mph with some control arms and bigs/littles. The car is obviously powerful.
1) The blower argument is childish and quite ricer.
2) If you knew anything about Mach 1s, or had ever driven any 4V Mustang, you would know that 4.10s/4.30s, and even 4.56s in some cases is not "over gearing" it.

I think it would be a bit unrealistic to assume that every new 5.0l will be a 119mph car with boltons. A capable 119mph car, yes, if theres no **** like a gutted interiorm that the shoop did and didnt tell.. Let us see what this car will do on a daily basis with the average Joe. I'm not saying this all bullshit; I believe this shop, but maybe its the ultimate bolton car from a very reputable shop if you ask me.
Are you sure you aren't a woman? You can't even admit like a man when you have blatantly lost an argument, and you are now just sounding even more childish.

Their car isn't even near full bolt-ons. I can see full exhaust/geared/tuned cars running 120mph+ on a regular basis.

With 4.30s most machs, gts, cobras run about ~3k at 70 mph. Correct me if I'm wrong.

3000 grand is kinda high if you do a lot of freeway driving. Whats your experience with a mustang?

But I'm not making claims about them like you are. There's the difference.

Those gears like 4.30 4.56 are probably good for 1/4 action. I just think they might be too much for daily driving. The last mustang I drove was a '96 Mustang cobra.
