Mustang would keepdoing fly bys to get me on the hook, picked the wrong fight, we ran it three times from a dig and i pulled him by a bus each time, off a roll i pulled him by about acar and 3/4 and still slowly pulling
Mustang had exhaust, not sure what else

All things being equal, 2011+ V6 Mustangs are quicker than TLs/Accords. 6MTs with the 3.31 axle are upper 13 second cars bone stock; mid/low 13s with just headers and a tune. Don't sleep on them. The automatics and especially the convertible automatics are slower.

He was a douche, he was laughing until i beat him lol
Btw man seen your vids on youtube, what rpm do you launch at if you dont mind me asking? Havent seen a 5AT tl-s run a 13.7, good shit!!
I wonder what ill run in the 1/4

dabeast51

Buddy of mine has a bolt on and gears auto '12 v6 stang, ran a 13.5 spinning lol had a shitty 60 ft

Thanks. Brake torquing around 2k-ish rpms has worked well for me but my best time was done from dead idle.
The hard part for me was working the throttle just enough to keep solid traction. I think having some sticky tires is the best mod for a car.

dabeast51

You think i could run a 13.8-13.9? I have a '12 v6 5at j35 accord, im slightly lighter than a tl-s and i have intake, j37 manifold and throttle body, ur pulley, rv6 hfpc, atlp v2 j pipe, third cat delete, and stage 3 exhaust (dynomax resobator with mid muffler delete)
Ill be getting a cutout soon tho
My car bogs if i launch higher than 1700ish tho even tho traction i off

Nice man!!! Now ya gotta work on your camerawork

GoPro, dashcam, or hell even a mount for your phone :P

dabeast51

Hahaha had to shift and record same hand lmao! It ain't easy! I have a go pro in the center console but in heat of the moment situations like these i wont have time to set it up lol

D's Up

Just leave that shit running all the time man.

FamilyGuy

Nice

dabeast51

Hahaha i think ima look into a dash cam thing, so if a run goes down i just tilt it towards the other car lol!

dabeast51

Thanks man!!
I noticed in your sig that you had ported intake runners, are they worth it performance wise? How much gain did they net?

TacoBello

What kind of man buys a V6 Mustang?

dabeast51

The kind that tells his friends he's getting a 5.0 but ends up getting a v6. Lol...i guess

FamilyGuy

I never dyno'd but IIRC other members have claimed around ~7-8whp. For me it brought back the vtec punch up top, since my RV6 exhaust setup lowered the power band towards the mid-range. Car felt stronger across the whole band and I can feel vtec again. I was originally gonna do the 3.7L mani / TB swap but several guys with 6MTs reported throttle hang issues, which I didn't want to risk. Happy with my decisions, car runs smooth and strong untuned.

Ps: note I did the PnP on runners, mani and TB all at once. No idea if runners by themselves would yield any gains.

They're not going to do anything on their own. Maybe one or two horsepower. But if you're going to port your manifold or go 3.7, upgrade your throttle body, it's part of the big picture.
Probably the fiscally intelligent ones who want to save money on initial purchase price, gas and insurance and still have the potential to have a 12 second car with bolt ons, gears and a tune.

(I'm sure most Mustang guys wonder what kind of man buys a TL or Accord.)

dabeast51

I alread have the j37 manifold and throttle body lol in that case ill get the runner and get them along with the manifold and tb ported lol

With some grippy tires you couldrobably do lower than that.
