Well as many of you may know from the 8th forum, I sold my SI. I have upgraded to a new 2013 5.0 Mustang. It has 3.73's, 6spd, Brembos, 19" wheels, and leather. It is a much more beautiful car although I will always love and miss my SI. It was a beast but lets face it, 12.8 built up just isnt cutting it anymore when a stock 5.0 runs faster.

So here are some pics of the old SI

And here are the new pics of my 2013 5.0 Mustang in Gotta Have It Green. It gets so much attention its crazy. I just ordered Flowmaster Outlaws axle backs so it will sound like a mustang should sound.

Sad to see the Si go, and congrats on the new mustang! Thanks.for staying on the forum, but I'm with Adam though. I see where this is going and I feel the same as post #2.

So, to get it over with: All I have to say is my insurance is cheaper, I get better gas mileage, and have a faster car than you do. And i've spent less overall than you have. And my car is a daily, as wel as a hell of a sleeper and suer quiet. But, I have to worry about my car being stolen as theives love Hondas, so I have an expensive alarm system to help me sleep at night.

I wouldn't mind a new 5.0 though, they are fun cars! Looks nice too. I raced one with intake, full exhaust, tune, and drag radials and I was at 9psi with street tires. From a 10mph roll we were dead even till 100. And I was mid-datalog, so I wasn't even fully tuned. 17psi wouldve been a much different story, lol.

Nice car! Let me know if you need parts but those new mustangs are not as fast as advertised. The same year SS camaro will whoop them. Ditch the catalytic converters and run 3" exhaust.

daum how fast are those stock? theres a couple pro charged ones in my area, word is they put out about 700 after the procharger

Friends of mine have them. 12.70-12.90's stock. Not a bad platform to start with that's for sure.

If ford didn't use "vtec" you'd still be in the 13's-14's.

ya i was sad to see the SI go too, but sometimes in life we have to do things we dont want to do.

you have me on the mpgs, but my ins isnt bad at all. i have full coverage, gap for under 100. you are turbo and you should be quick but im stock. i ran 12.9@110. anyone can say their faster than a stock car but once my blower goes on its a whole different story. whoever you raced was basically stock. on these cars through my research i have found that an intake and their crappy bama tune doesnt give much hp. the stock intake and header are designed very well. if a new stang wants real gains they need to go boost. if you raced a supercharged stang you wouldnt have a chance in hell. you spent a lot of money on your ride just to keep up with a stock stang or mildly modded stang.

i have a hell of a platform to work off of. you may have spent less than me but we all get what we pay for. you have less options/power than me and your car is older. not saying anything bad about your ride but just the differences.

Well, I've also run a 2011 supercharged & intercooled camaro SS from 30-130 and I was about 5 cars in front by the 130. Just saying. Had to let it out from the UPS trailer pic.

The new stangs are fast though, toss some drag radials on there and tear it up!! Hope you stay as a member, you should keep this build thread updated!!

jesus fucking christ guys. im not trying to compete with anyone. i have a nice ride in which can be made very fast but that is the furthest thing from my mind right now. all you guys wanna do is try to out do me. give me a break. trust me i have so many outdone in life its not even funny. if all you wanna do is say how slow my car is or how slow a 10 sec mustang is because you have a 5-6 year old honda with a turbo then i have no time for you, IDGAF. all you guys do is think honda is the best car in the world. thats why i left the 8thcivic and it seems like its no different here.

so what if you have 500whp turbo. i can get in my car, turn the key, and drive. i dont need to tune, repair, or work on my car like the rest of you modded guys have to do. its reliable, i like it, and it turns a lot of heads. i dont need to be 900whp. i can right now if i wanted to but its not my primary focus. i have bigger things to work on. cars are just a small part of the equation for me unlike so many others.

the new camaros are slow, even with a supercharger. i raced one at the track with my supercharged fg2 and beat him by 4-5 cars. their heavy cars.

race a supercharged mustang and the outcome will be much different.

ya, it was only minor damage. broken axle, broken strut, broken panhard bar, broken sway bar, both driver side wheels broke, and a small amount of paintwork on the rear bumper from the exhaust pipe scraping it. no frame damage and is good as new

Also. Lol at your gauges. Kinda rice right there. Smh at Ford.

wasnt trying to drift. at time of accident i only had car a week. i was driving behind rush hour traffic. just went over rr tracks into an immediate 90 degree left turn. i was in 2nd going 20mph. roads were wet form rain. at end of turn i gave it a little gas to drive like normal and the car broke loose on me. i tried to correct it by laying in the gas and countersteering and spun the other way and smacked a curb.

the gauges are unique and it does get old seeing the same color so its a nice option to change the color

Nice choice dude. Those 5.0s are amazing. i got myself one also. 5.0 with mid pipe, 100 shot and a tune... running 11.5@126... 513whp/578wtq. I'm lucky to be able to have the RSX still also... but you won't miss thE Honda from a performance perspective... i can assure you that.
Welcome aboard.

Welcome aboard.

i will always miss my SI because i had to get rid of it to help someone out. otherwise i would still have it. but ya the performance of the stang def is awesome in stock form. its like why even do anything, its fast out of the box.

i plan on putting a blower on it. im going to do a lot of research before i make the plunge. i dont want too much power that just leads me to spin everytime i step on the gas but i dont want to be left wanting more than i got either. there are 3 kits im researching. the 525hp, 575hp, and 624hp kit. so it may be a while before i get it because im going to do A LOT of research because i only wanna do the build once.

those are some nice times bro. what gears do you have?

We're just messing with you man. Thats why I said I got it out of the way in my first post. The UPS truck pic made us Honda owners bend out of shape a little. But no worries, we all have a love for the new 5.0 because lets face it, Ford finally did it right! Glad you're enjoying the new car, keep up w the mods and keep us updated!

just installed flowmaster outlaws.

the stock muffler weighs 20lbs. so its 40lbs combined. the outlaw muffler weighs 8lbs so 16lbs combined. total weight savings of 24lbs. not too bad

thanks, unfortunatley there isnt a way to push the tips in anymore. its just the muffler design i guess.

im not really gonna mod this car because im kind of burnt out from the fg2 i recently had. im tired of turning wrenches. maybe a few years down the road that may change. i just ordered the side window louvers though, the roush ones. hopefully it will look better

Still looks and sounds awesome though!! Much better than I expected tbh. And I think the mod bug has already bit u and it will slowly increase. After the louvers (which I can't wait to see btw :party:) it will be an intake, then a short throw, mid pipe, and maybe a few small other things. But it'll still be mildly modded at that point. Once you supercharge her in a year, it'll be insane!
