All stock, not quite.
Is the smoke your talking about after an Egoboost LSPI's and kicks out a con rod?

You know, might be kinda fun to paste a couple "5.0" badges right underneath my eGo badges.....should get some interesting looks....

Could it be... a 5.0TT??? Who would know?

(would definitely need to do something with the exhaust note...or, lack there of...)

Another person in denial, just look up any "respectable" website with 1/4 data times, or time slips on here. The 5.0 is SLOWER than both the 2.7 & 3.5 Eco's bone stock. You don't even want to line up beside one that's had a $400 programmer added, you'd REALLY get embarrased then. 95% of LSPI is a product of 4 cylinder forced induction, not our V6's......

I don't even have a clue what you're talking about. My 2.7 has 20K miles with the same plugs.....

It's all good though, both eco's get the the sound too, yours just comes from the speakers

You want another fun fact, the Ecoboost Mustang's are running faster than the 5.0 in the 1/4 mile also.....

Seeing as how I get a new truck every 50K miles I won't be able to have those numbers for you......

A truck is a truck. You use it for doing what a car can't. Towing a lot? Sure, get the 3.5, not towing a lot and want to have your truck for a long time? 5.0. If I wanted to race, I would have kept my Charger. Ford gives options for a reason. Can we end the endless debates now? I've only been on the forums for a few days and every other thread I see this stupid debate and it's getting old real fast.
