So are the mods worth it DAMN RIGHT they are, confirmed to me that all the time and money spent is well worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hulk xr6t Member 160 Member For: 17y 1m 29d Posted 11/07/08 05:24 AM Share Posted 11/07/08 05:24 AM I used to have an edited SS GEN3 and I compared it to a stock Typhoon. I thought the SS was better up top down low and everywhere else.I just dont beleive it when they say all the torque is there from 1900rpm, more like 3000rpm.But my modified T makes the Gen3 feel slow in comparison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when you do a drive comparo it becomes just how obviously underpowered and under handling Ford and FPV left these things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
