Yeah, the EcoBoost is incredibly detuned from the factory... it's crazy!

Here are the 100% stock runs:



These are 3 BACK TO BACK passes!! Talk about consistent!! LOL!

So 14.2 in a 4850 pound vehicle... figure about 1 second per 1000 pounds... and the Flex is not the most aerodynamic vehicle... Now imagine that in say a 3600 pounds car... Looking at low 13 second car stock! I picked up 1.3 seconds with a tune and methanol... now you are closing in on 11s!

Also..... based on the dynos, latest tweaks, calculated estimates... I would say our EcoBoost is pretty close to 500 HP / 500 TQ at the crank.. Based on my ETs, our Flex runs 0-60 in 4.3 seconds...

This is all without something as important (to a turbo car) as a freer flowing downpipe. When are people going to quit pretending that a TT v6 in a truck or other vehicles for that matter isn't a good idea? Also, you can't use the excuse that they don't sell well because I believe the ecoboost has substantially surpassed sales expectations.

Agreed! Even my 12.9x runs were with very few mods! Stock air box, OEM paper filter, only exhaust mod is a simple axle back... stock down pipes, 3 cats, big stock resonator...

Ford announced in May they were adding a 3rd shift to the Cleveland engine plant the produces the 3.6 V6 Ecoboost (along with the 3.7 V6). So yeah, they are selling a few of them!

The TTV6 From Ford is beast mode. It's straight nasty when you compare its power output to its size. I drove a relatives 2011 F150 2WD Crew Cab with the EcoBoost V6 in it. Very impressive engine.

Direct Injection V8 for the Chevy SS Sedan PLEASE!!

Come on Fen, give us something. Just a little hint.

[Silverlsinva]

Hmmn surprise something for the trucks. Ill take a guess at a Off roadish like the raptor but not as extreme as the raptor.

You know the black suburbans are circling when even Fen won't speculate or pass on rumors from that other websites "insiders".

Ricer? LOL! Stock? Ummm... the Traillbazer SS's were NOT STOCK!!! Big GM V8 engine... The TBSS is actually lighter than my Flex buy 100 to 200 pounds depending on if it's 2WD or 4WD...

You can find out more about those TBSS's here:

Ok... first run in this video is against a member (DandD) here with a MODIFIED LS3! He' treed me but in the end I had the BETTER ET!!



And pretty sure THIS car wasn't stock either:




So sorry... nice try.... please play again... when you have something more intelligent to add, rather than just name calling... which as far as I can tell is all you do...
