No, full premium car....only thing is driveshaft i guess for weight reduction. 6speed car with 331 gears

 

Awesome! Car runs great

 

Yeah, nice runs! Your car runs good man!

 

Nice runs! Thanks for sharing

 

Good pulls, I may have missed it but how did you do against the 2015 car?

 

I got him almost a car top end

 

Good runs man!


Yeah, a Pulley/Tune Shelbro can move out. The 07-09's had weight against them. My 2012 Shelby made 558rwhp SAE with just a 2.6 upper pulley, and dyno tune. Still had OEM CAI setup.

 

Was there a weight difference between the different years on the Shelby? I'm actually hoping to line up with my buddy's 08 Shelby...me n/a of course

 

I think the 07-09s were 3900-4000lbs. The 2011+ had aluminum block shaving 100lbs off motor alone. I put my 2012 on a truck scale and it weighed 3800lbs without me in it.

 

Ok I didn't realize the new models were a tad lighter. Have you ran yours at the track yet?

 

I don't have the Shelby anymore. Not great at the track with crappy 555r drag radials... those cars need slicks. Had 2013 TVS on it @ 690rwhp. Hell of a highway car. Took out a couple h/c/i/e C6Zs.

I have run my S550.. best so far 11.81, best trap 117.4

 

Gotcha. Heck of trade....the Shelby for the 5.0 lol. I've seen vids of your 5.0 though. It runs really good for the mods it has

 

Thanks. I didn't trade the Shelby for the 5.0.. traded it for a 2013 Fusion . Bought another house, and needed to prioritize remodeling. cheaper car helped. Finished most of the house, got the speed bug again, and traded the Fusion for the 5.0

 

I see. That makes sense. From what I've seen the S550 can actually handle boost really well. Probably could make similar power as the Shelby couldn't it?

 

The 2015+ 5.0 can actually handle much more power SLB than the 5.4/5.8 Shelby motors reliably. The Shelbys were good to 750ish rwhp on the 5.4 and 800ish on the 5.8 to still be safe. 800-900 SHouldnt be a problem on a new 5.0.. although me personally, I would build the motor anyway at that level. No sense in pushing a SLB just to say "Hey!! SLB!!" Who cares.... just go faster and don't blow it up.

 

Nice pulls OP. Our cars are similar in mods so its nice to see your vids.

 

Nice, are you FBO E85 as well?

 

I don't have long tubes, but it is on E85, catless X, ported boss and a catback.

 

How do you like the ported Boss....BTW long tubes make a world of difference!

 

The ported boss was a good investment. It took me about 10 hours to do the work myself, just going slow with a dremel. I added E85 at the same time and switched to AED for a tune and I gained 4+ mph in trap speed (113.78 to 118.09).

I would like headers but I'm scared of the install lol. Im sure it would help gain back some low end torque.
