Really savage looking acceleration with no signs of wanting to stop! Another one I have seen was the f6 vs r8 6.2l the f6 wins but you could see it would benifit from a wider rear foot print.

The cars still have the usual Ford Q/C problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford has done it - every car produced has a generic tune.I still smell a rat...Provide a crap tune, let the tuner upsell a custom dyno tune for $500 +.I need to go in a corner and cry...I feel violated!cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
