Carried over from crownvic.net, I'm too lazy to re-type it all!
It is what it is guys, I offer no excuses, and don't feel as if I'm out of the realm of where I need to be given the circumstances and my location.
It's all good, not going for the fastest here, I don't have the budget, skill or time for such things.
That being said, let the roasting continue
Honestly though, I was in no way disappointed with it by any means. Corrected to sea level, that's a 13.49@105.35.
NHRA correction factors for my track: http://www.nhra.com/competition/altitude.aspx
The Vic in the video that shows the factory cluster working, has a Ford Racing Control Pack, true Mustang engine, and is around 500 lbs lighter than me, and had a trap speed of 104. Out of courtesy, I won't post his slip, that's not my place. His is a T-45 equipped unit.
Considering every Mustang GT I've seen run at our strip, is a mid 13 sec car in auto form (all stock), i'm right where I should be for my weight (4400 lbs with driver), Engine (F150 10.5:1 CR, Mustang Intake Cams), and completely stock, full Marauder exhaust including mufflers (which is true dual 2" vs. the factory Coyote true dual 2.25"). Initially, I had thought about giving it a shot and doing up the exhaust right, deeper gear and better stall to really give the Coyote justice in N/A form, but with jumping right into the turbo build here shortly, that would have been time and money wasted so there is no point.
Unfortunately, people only focus on the end results no matter the details that can alter them. It is what it is in stock form, and i'm in no way disappointed given the listed mods and weight. That's a substantial gain over the stock 4v.
Boost is coming, and at that time we can place our bets as that's the end goal here. One game changer for this setup vs my Turbo Chevy vic will be that, the stock 6R80 can have a trans brake with 3 simple relays and some tune work as demonstrated here (thanks for the heads up on this Cameronvic!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atma-QGHbGA
It's only the beginning, there is more to come guys.
