2001 Ford Explorer Sport 4x4. Shift on the fly capable.
4.0L Cologne V6/5R55E Bordeux A5: 210hp/245lbft.

Similar setup to a 2009 V6 Mustang but the 'Stang uses a 5R55N (different gearing). I'm not joking either. Actually, I'm sure the 2010 Stang is the same. I find this hilarious.. I'm driving a 4x4 4200lb Mustang with a mile high CG.

4wd? You should see the crap I pull in 2wd. Remember, I've put this truck on 2 wheels.. (allegedly..)

And Justin, it's all true. Ford part-binned the current Mustang and my Explorer's power-trains from the same bin. XD

Xanthos · 10-12-2009, 08:46 PM

For those bench racing over there (I see you. Yeah, you know who you are) the hyundai is an M5.

Gearing for each gear (total including the differential gear) is 15.53 - 9.32 - 5.83 - 4.66 - 3.32

You need a custom hood scoop for extra power.

You can fabricate one pretty easy from a 9" x 12" cake pan.

Cut one end off the cake pan

Turn it upside down and place it on the hood on the hood prefereably close to center.

Trace an outline of the cake pan.

Cut a hole in the hood to match.

Use self tapping sheet metal screws to screw the cake pan...oooooops..hood scoop to your hood.

Parts:

1 Cake pan

12 self tapping sheet metal screws

Tools:

Saw

Screw driver

The performance improvement will be massive. But don't let a dyno result fool you just because it's the same before and after. It takes the air going at 88 mph to create the giant boost in power and most dynos can't provide that fresh air induction at 88 mph.

Of course this is all predicated on your ability to get your Hyundai up to 88 mph.................

Oh and make sure the open end of the cake pan..........ooooops I mean hood scoop........ is facing the front of the car. It's not a Trans Am.

Heh - It hits 95 quite handily (well, comparitively). After that things slow down a lot.
