There is no 21 psi TSP map. Map 3 is more like 23.5 or so. Congrats on the takedown.

I believe it. 3rd gear 40 mph is ideal.

If the 4.6L is anything like the one in my 2008 F150 work truck, it’s a little sluggish below 3000 rpm.

I have both cars, but opposite mods. Non tuned Si, and bolt on & tuned 3V. It's crazy that I can get the civic as fast as the Mustang with just a tune. Because that stock tune is definitely nowhere near the Mustang lol.

I could be wrong, but I think you have the 2V 4.6 from the 4th gen Mustang.

It’s an XL Triton. Triton = 3 valve. The 2 valve are the ones they put in the mustangs and crown vics.

I could see you winning, but bus lengths seems optimistic to me. They should be trapping around 100 or so.

Maybe poor driving? Is is an auto? Maybe it's slow to downshift? etc

Agreed. I don't doubt that he beat him. But 2 bus lengths? Not unless OP kept pulling after the Mustang let off, or he has a swapped turbo.

pre coyote mustangs are slow, but a kill is a kill. my 16 gt fbo was a mean little lady in a straight line with the noise to back it. lol

those old mustangs had a boat anchor for an engine(4.6 3v). having driven them before, they are unimpressive. those 4.6 v8 had to worry about the cyclone v6 3.7 engine. gotta love progress.

It has like 180,000 miles he was still pulling but I let off at 100 mph and was quite a ways from the mustang.
