ill give you the first run in the video is, the camaro driver fell asleep.

the 2nd run, you take a car with more hp, just a bit less torque, better gearing, and less weight, and it pretty much adds up.

If the A6 5.0 can consistently trap 114-115mph, something we have to wait and see, the video would be representative of what you would see on the street.

It was put on by Ford for the journalist no doubt about that.

However if it was clearly staged bullshit it will get called out in the media, mainly the car mags.

I could be wrong, but I thought Mike @ PowerHouse tuned his 2011? Also, Evolution states theirs is custom tuned... in this youtube vid


Just asking, that's all. Seems as though Ford nailed this Mustang, ala the Terminator.

I don't know who Mike is using to tune his car, didn't even know it was tuned.

However Evo is getting help from a proven tuner in the mustang community who is well connected.

I will say that this is very early in the game. As I am sure the GM car mags will test the 2011 GT and will call shens if they can't replicate the results.

I'm not for sure it is, I thought it was listed though. With all these Mustang threads floating around, I can't find the one about his, lol.


I was just questioning the statement that tuning isn't available. Seems as though it is, maybe just not in canned form?

In any case, the Evo vid was sweet, and aside from the Mustang just not looking good, IMO, it does look like the strip is going to be fun.

Also, why slap Vendicated Tuning on your window if it isn't tuned? Ricer-ish it is, lol.

There's no such thing as a piggyback tune or just throwing on mods without tuning. I've got to raise the flag on this video. There's something we don't know about this Mustang.

I didn't call him a liar, I said people are calling him a liar, even on his forum. I could care less I just said we will see what other autos start running.
