You were originally right looking at the 2.7. Tuner, drag radials with that elocker and I bet you can run a high 12s. These guys are dreaming with this 5.0. It's Ford's work truck engine, good engine but not a mustang like these guys make it out to be. Ecoboosts are way quicker.
lol you are funny. 😀i like you

I mean, he’s not wrong with his estimation of breaking into the 12’s. Turning up the boost a bit while disabling all the torque management in the ECU is all the turbo engines need. This whole stock vs stock comparison is silly, when it comes to racing. Who ever heard of someone focusing on racing, but not modifying the vehicle?

I just want to see a 93 octane perf tuned 2018 5.0 vs. a 2017/18 93 octane perf tuned 3.5 ecoboost, same drive/cab configuration go head to head.
Its hard to argue the 5 star tuning 2017 3.5 ecoboost laying down 445rwhp/500rwtq on a 93 perf tune.
But, that doesn't really mean that it will be considerably faster than the 5.0 in the quarter mile. I am just curious to see how well the 5.0 holds up apples to apples.
Supercharge the 5.0 and it's game over. Not even a comparison, no chance the ecoboost keeps up. A modified reg cab 2wd 3.5 ecoboost couldn't keep up with a crew cab 4wd supercharged '18 5.0.

He's running a 125 shot of nitrous that's he's dialed in pretty well. What's not fair about putting drag radials on a peg leg truck? lol. I didn't say i had to buy them, i got them already, picked them up recently.
And i believe my current ET is still faster than he's gone anyways. So i guess i don't really need them, i just want to pound it home lol.
