Re: 2015 Mustang Revealed

Ford spec weight for the Ecoboost fastback automatic is 3524 lbs. If the 2.3L turbo 4 were to go into the guide and NHRA follows their usual way of starting with the NHRA HP = Factory HP then the weight break is 11.37, or a natural G with a 12.0 index, so it is already under that with the Livernois setup. Wonder if the IRS in the new Mustang uses the same ring and pinion as the Ford 8.8? If it is a completely new differential it's going to be tough to get a serious drag race ratio for it.

Re: 2015 Mustang Revealed
Ford Racing shows a different part number for the 2015 gears. The only ratio's that they show at this time is 3.55 and 3.73. Neither is available as of this time and my back order list shows an available date of 1-15-15.
The following is their description:

edit: Something else I noticed on the video, notice how it sucks the rear down as he's torquing it up? Modifying angles for straightline only should really improve an already awesome package. Last edited by goinbroke2; 01-03-2015 at 06:40 PM. |

Re: 2015 Mustang Revealed
I hope to see the new Mustang at the track this year. The 2.3 L EcoBoost I4 looks impressive. Here is my Super Stock/Comp photochop.

I like those wheels better than the "blacked out" versions.
