Default 2013 Roush Supercharged 5.0 Vs Supercharged DCT M3

I think i had some 95 octane left in the tank, I dont recall since last I drove the car. But Meth was off as I thought it was cold enough to see what it had. I probably should have kept it on by the 1/8 mile mph and lackluster 1/4 mph

Im also on stock X again. Sorry guys, its quieter and a tone I like more, but its robbing me MPH, so im going back to mean and nasty..

I ran 11.9@ 123.7mph the run before this, (2.1 60') But I dont know if its artificial from the shitty 60's I have again even on Drag Radials. Mike@VAC is correct in that we need a lineloc to do proper burnouts. This is on my list now..

Its crazy though that my ET is STILL sitting the same, 11.8/9 even with a huge flux of mph difference (119-123)





The mph improvement could also be because I think it was -1300 DA

That was actually the best run for the Stang, the 2 runs before he was 11.9@117.

How much boost can the new s65 engine take reliably on pump gas?

Loving the M3!

reliably? that depends. rumor is that we have bearing issues, some motors seem to be fine, others not. I know 1 guy that has put 40k hard miles @ 8 psi w.o issue.
I know another guy thats on his 3rd m3, and another that took his kit off for bearing sounds after 6 months at 7.5 psi..

but everything else, is about 8-9 psi, 9 being a gamble

im on 6 psi right now, but going to 7 next week

so did I, i figured a low 11 and nearing 130mph, at least, on a setup like that. My buddie 5.0 on stock tires runs 12.1@117/118 with intake tune x pipe.

Nice runs. Is the roush stock? If so those times seem perfectly fine.

lol, yea, DCT is tricky to launch, so in reality, when the 2nd light pops is when i have to just mash the throttle and wait for the dme to tell itself to go, sometimes its early, sometimes its way late..

Nice run. You and the Mustang need some drag radials.

stock + blower @ 9 psi, some suspension mods, not sure what
im still confused at that answer. Is it a stage 3 roush with comes with a blower and its 100 percent stock with the exception of the suspension? Or is it a stage 1 roush with an aftermarket blower on it?

Its a regular 5.0 with a roush blower installed on it running 9 psi

Im not too sure how many different configurations there are. I know he threw the blower on about 3 months ago he said
