I just raced a FBO 5.0 coupe today from about 20-110..I beat him by about a car and a half and still pulling..I thought they would be faster, they sound nice though..Im FBO cobb stage 2+ btw

You wouldn't happen to have a video would you? This would be a good video to show my mustang buddy

You mean "bone stock 5.0," or at least one without the driver mod. Yeah, I'm COBB S2+ also.

There's a big difference between a 5.0 and a regular GT...

Actually just noticed you are in Ft. Lauderdale, if you can go to PBIR tomorrow night, perhaps we can do some runs.

I don't believe this, definitely not without a video. Maybe a GT but not an FBO 5.0, that's like 115 MPH trap speed car if not faster. Your N54 is far from that especially without meth.

Im on my iphone so I cant link but if you search for bama tuned mustang vs bmw 335i on youtube you can see that from a roll that the mustang is a fair bit stronger.
Are you sure that the mustang was fbo?

If it is infact a 115mph car then it and a cobb stage 2+ car should be a good run and come down to a drivers race.

Without a video, my civic 5 speed is also faster than a 5.0 stang.

I haven't kept up with the Coyote community but have seen intake + tune 2011 5.0 Mustangs trap 115 - 117. Headers would make it a sure bet.

I feel that [most] COBB S2 cars here are in the 111-113 MPH range, at least on pump with full weight. Who's trapping 115 and higher on a stock COBB S2+ map with pump gas?

positive..the guy rolled down his window to ask me what I had..I asked him and he said "full bolt ons, pretty much everything except a supercharger"...you guys dont have to believe me, doesnt make a difference to me..its funny you guys think I would lie ont he internet to a bunch of people I dont know lol...sorry I dont have a video recoding every minute of me driving lol

I guess you guys wouldnt believe me either if I told you I beat my brothers IS-F w/intake by 3-4 cars...

it is what it is, you guys dont have to believe me but its true

I'm leaving my house around 5:30 and meeting up with another 335i owner near sample and i75. The track opens at 6pm and its going to be a chilly night!

I dont really see what the controversey here is about, i mean its a 5.0 mustang. They're impressive, but they're not a damn veyron or something. He may have expected to suck your headlights out so he started a gear higher than he should have, who knows. But i'd say you wouldn't be the first stage 2+ car to suprise a 5.0

Yeah exactly! Theres a couple of other 335 owners that are going to attend, but so far I'm only meeting up with one before heading there. Hopefully traction isn't an issue...

But yeah itd be great if you show, I really want to see a Cobb Stage 2 there and maybe run it so that would give me another excuse to jump ship.

Right, so you verified he's got headers, exhaust, X-pipe, intake and tune before you ran?
