2018 GT 10R80 ripped off the FIRST 8 second pass for supercharged 2018 Mustang tonight! 8.82 at 157.5 MPH on a stock engine with a @whipplesuperchargers Gen 5 3.0L blower with a 3.75/20% pulley combo. Insane! It backed it up with a 8.91 and 8.88. @whitem3 and the @midnight__performance crew did @mcleod_racing clutches and a test converter from @circledspecialties. This hasn’t been done yet and we all did it with success. This is promising for the 10R80 aftermarket. This car averaged low 1.4 60s with the stock converter before. Now it’s averaging low 1.3X! All with a 2nd gear launch off the footbrake! Thanks to that @steedaautosports and @vikingperformance suspension!

720S killer.

Gunna start seeing these things really fly now that converters are starting to come out.

 

[Sprayin]

Track seems empty too. Knew I should have went. Damn.

Demon killer.

+1 LOL

8's on a stock engine is nasty fast . GM LT1 engines have a hard time to get into 9s on stock engines

Waiting to hear costs of the trans modifications. This is exciting to see.

 

[GLADIATOR]

Very impressive. Also interested in the cost to get there by buying stock and DIY.

Waiting to hear costs of the trans modifications. This is exciting to see.

From my understanding it's just the converter. They're $1300 to modify the stock one or $2000 for the whole thing.

It says clutches also but I couldn’t imagine they are “needed”

 

[Sprayin]

Oh yeah it does. I forgot to reread it

Converter is going to be wicked on these 10 speeds once they are sorted out!!

8s @ 150+ mph is badass!

 

[HellPIG]

Love it

 

[syP]

DAMN... hellcat what?!?! demon WHAT?!? Audi RS3... want... but WHAT??

 

[SaturdaysGS]

Nuts!

 

[1quick]

I cant wait to see what these turbo guys start running now with a good converter

I wonder how long the stock engine will put up with that. Surprised if the pistons and rods last very long.

 

[willizm]

That’s impressive. The new cars are scary fast and capable of making such great power out the box.

Lund told me that my goal of "hitting 9s" is putting the car on borrowed time. Said the 18+ engines are letting out left and right. Manufacturing flaw they think.

 

[Mook]

Whaaaaaat

 

[Sprayin]

that's what they said. Make me kinda pull back on going up in power.

I wonder how long the stock engine will put up with that. Surprised if the pistons and rods last very long.

My guess is not too long. They probably have it in a really good fuel to help with detonation. But the pistons and rods are well past their design parameters. They put clutches in the trans for reliability. I would bet that now they went that fast in a stock motor they will either push it until it blows up or remove it and build it.

But sure is cool to see a stock motor go 157 mph sheesh haha
