Will 3v mid pipe fit?

[Redfireshaker06]

I have a mac prochamber from my 2006 GT, will it fit the new 5.0 I'm thinking about getting?

Shit if it doesn't just splice that bitch in. Is it not the same diameter pipe?

 

[Twinscrewgt]

I believe the new 5.0 has bigger exhaust. I thought I read 2.75

Well, doesn't look good yet for me getting the 11. But I bet I'll be getting a call here in a couple days from the dealership.

Sux to hear. To me from the 07 to an 11 the price is quite a bit higher. You're talking about a 4k to 5k increase. Kinda out of reach for alot of the market that the Mustang was targeted for.

Considering it would take 5k for an 07 to match the performance , I for one think it's a fair trade.

I love the pro-chamber btw!

 

[Redfireshaker06]

Prochamber is AWESOME. lol

Well I might have to build one to get the options I want. Anyone know how long a car takes?

 

[Twinscrewgt]

I ordered mine in march, and it'll be here tomorrow!

 

[Redfireshaker06]

Less than 2 months?

Magnaflow has some part numbers specific for the 2011

Well yeah it's worth it, if you can afford it.

Still not bad for major changes including a whole new engine(that adds 112 HP, 70 TQ, and .4 liters), 6 speed transmission, reworked body, redesigned interior(finally with soft materials which I think are plastic that feel almost like leather), electronic power steering, "close to mid length" headers, higher flowing mufflers/midpipe, vastly upgraded suspension, and performance figures very in line with the 25-30,000 more BMW M3. I think all of that is worth a lot more than 4,000-5,000.

When you consider the high percentage of people that bought 4.6's and supercharged them to have a car between the GT and the GT500 for horsepower and now look at how Ford has filled that gap themselves...it's brillant.

The V-6 was a dud until this year sorry.

Now we have a platform that gives 4.6l performance with V6 milage.
A GT that outperforms the 2007 with 7k worth the mods and a 10 with 5k.
A GT-500 with off the charts performance compared to it's roots.

And we all win, especially Ford that now has a proven powerplant that can be modified and changed to suit 80% of it's lineup.

Who wants a 300hp ranger FX4? lots of young guys.

Who wants an entry level 412hp F-150?

300HP V-6 F-150 with over 30 mpg?

This on top of these engines being pre-set for Eco Boost and DI technology.

Makes me proud to say I'm a Ford guy through and through.

This should help you with your question. http://forums.themustangsource.com/showthread.php?t=482660

Hope this answered your question.

I'd be amazed to see that, frankly. It won't happen with the current engine. An F-150 is neither as light nor as aerodynamic as a V6 Mustang. Both of those will mangle MPG ratings.

 

[2011CS]

As is yes Hawkeye, but in 2 years they can do it.

We NEVER thought you could break 20mpg with 400hp in a Mustang either....

Very exciting times coming, for about another 3 years til Obama kills all the fun.

I just wish I had the money to go out and trade mine in now!! I'll just have to wait until 2013 or so when I finish paying for mine.
