  1. I asked him on shoforum when he is going to get rid of his land anchors. I am sure he would pick up some speed with just that.
  2. Ford has been pushing the Ecoboost HARD and this is just another one of their ridiculous marketing schemes. They try to hide the bias because its set up by Automobile and Motor Trend Mag guys. It pits the Ecoboost MKS vs a BMW 550, Mercedes E550, Jag XF(5.0 n/a) and Maserati Quattroporte. Its supposed to show that the Ecoboost has the power of the V8 with the gas mileage of the V6. Essentially trying to bring to light how great turbocharging and direct injection are together. They do the test at 12,000 feet elevation lol, and guess what car is the ONLY one with F/I. You guessed it, the MKS. At 5k feet, a N/A engine produces 80% of peak power, imagine what 12k feet is like. F/I lessens the power loss significantly, but not entirely. This test is laughable. Also, direct injection and turbocharging have been used by many manufacturers for over 6 years lol. http://www.6versus8.com/speedchannelvideo/video16/index.html
  3. You also think that the automatic they used, which they limited engine power for because it couldn't handle what they wanted to give the SHO will be reliable? Remember the car weighs 4300lbs, thats mega heavy for a weak tranny. The new Taurus is a nice car, way too big on the outside for how big it is on the in side, and way too expensive. With that said, the car will very easily be in the 11's. Throw on some downpipes, full exhaust, charge pipes etc a retune and some lightweight wheels, and your there. Exactly
  4. CHANGE anyone have some spare change?
  5. ahahahaha one of the funnier things I have seen lately.
  6. You're right.......... Fuck you H22, I hope your kids have aids, and die, and while all of that happens, I hope your wife gets as fat as I am. Face.
  7. Just had that talk with my wife. We are about a year out from that. Good luck with that, and have fun (baby making, not taking care of the prego wife lol)
  8. Face to me. I concede that one.
  9. Not a big fan of candy. Now if it was an Eagle's Pepperoni pizza, then I most certainly would run after it.
  10. haha, good one, I'm fat. Your brilliant. Anyone with eyes can see that I am fat, its not a secret. Personal attacks amuse me.
  11. Yep, a ricer, that's me. :gtfo:
  12. No nut swinger, just have a similar dislike for you as he does. Yes, I do.
  13. quote fail for me. I was talking to H22. Fixed it for you;)
  14. H22, If you need me to bust out the VW and shut you up, I will.
  15. H22, your a tool, talking shit to people, including someone in high school, who has contributed more to the forum and meets than the 4 year veteran. GTFO douch bag.
  16. X1000000000 It is absolutely the best flavor ever. A good hot flavor that actually tastes good is Buckeye bbq. Suicide and bbq mixed together. I like it for about 2-6 wings then its too much for me.
  17. With that said, I have been looking at FC LS1 swaps, and Volvo's with 03/04 cobra engines and or LSX's. In theory I would love one of those, but I will most likely do a Gen 1/2 SHO with built 3.2 and turbo, or a MKIV R32 stripped for track days.
  18. Shanton, there is something to say for being unique. Not everyone wants to have a Mustang, Camaro or Corvette. And anyone that buys a new GTI, new Civic Si, new R32, new Mini cooper etc could have afforded ANY of the cars I just mentioned, and easily been in the 400+hp range. But not everyone values the same thing.
  19. Paul, what you have just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
  20. Worst call out/bitch thread in history? 1 Vote here.
