2011 5.0 GT Runs 11's @ 117, Slicks + Tune

[93R-Code]

Found this on another board…

2011 GT running 11.70s @ 117 with supposedly just skinny’s, slicks and a tune (Edit) and rear suspension, see below. Some guys have already gone faster but not with this little done. Very impressive!

I'm a big Ford nutswinger, and even I am skeptical of some of these times.

Not sure. But I did notice it still has the stock mufflers.

I think it's possible. You're a fart away from 11's with less power than even a stock one.

I guess I won't be a true believer until I know someone that has a stock 5.0 and see their dyno numbers. I just have a hard time believing they make 395/36X to the wheels from the factory. I think my dyno numbers are a little low too as it was +90 degrees when I had the car tuned and dyno'ed. I wouldn't be surprised if it was closer to 400/400.

What can I say, I require a good amount of proof. Some random internet videos do not make me believe anything. Maybe it's just me hoping that it's not true because my FI car will lose to a new N/A with slightly more displacement and better technology.

I am a bit skeptical too. I'd like to see pictures of the car to see if it's a "full weight" car or if weight was removed. Does the car have a gear? Control arms?

We don't know anything other than the fact that someone says it's on a tire and has a tune.

I found more info on the car. Apparently it also has some rear suspension work also…

 

[jason05gt]

Here is what I found:

The Exact parts on the rear are

UPR non adj lowers with poly ends
Steeda Hardcore upper control arm with the heavy duty mounting plate
UPR Adj panhard bar
QA1 single adj shocks.

It's a 6 speed manual with the "Brembo" package, which comes with 3.73's.

 

[blakbearddelite]

So are suspension mods lumped under 'tune' or 'slicks'?

 

[greasy]

Well what the hell, why don't you just put a blower on it and call it stock too

 

[blakbearddelite]

I guess I could say my car is stock except for some suspension work, a tire, and an upgraded lower/upper intake.

people are starting to get dyno vids of their own on the web now..saw this one on svtp recently.
1300 miles on the clock.
100+* and 90%+ humidity in the shop. 100% stock.

Everyone has a different deffintion of stock or just a tune or what have you! Still impressive times none the less!
