Have I just posted something stupid again on this thread?

Oh he's got a long way to go.
Gary - help me out (I believe you proclaimed it thread of the year) - who were those two guys with the 11's? One is in D.C. or VA and got to get back on, and the other previously had a vette maybe? and was from VA I think. It incl Italian vegetables.
What were those two guys' names? (Or do we not mention the dead here?) That was the best I've seen on forums.

At that point there wouldn't be much more power to gain without opening the engine up.. Plus its only a matter of time before something goes wrong, it went from 305hp to 475hp on stock internals, clutch, DRIVESHAFT... ect. Sounds like a ticking time bomb to me.

Yeah that was good stuff. Silverbull was one and that other one had an avatar with Apollo Anton Ono
That was thread of the decade!

I'll go ahead and bite since I don't have much going on. I'm all for getting information from the threads and there is a wealth of knowledge on here. Seems you have been rather argumentative when people post a reply. You are happy with your DD, but start this thread, you start a Boss v 5.0 thread and when people point out the other factors that drive up the cost of the vehicle you turn back to HP/TQ numbers and seem to ignore everything else. Don't get me wrong, I find this very amusing for some sick reason.

That reminds me. That one guy had ordered a V6 2011. Then he was hanging out here so much he went in and changed his order to a GT. Then he wanted to change it again but it was already being delivered. Then he wanted a different color.
I remember he used to talk about popping his collar.
Funny stuff!

I don't want to start a new thread but I read a Ford article about how most likely the upcoming mustang will have a ecoboost 4 cylinder. I didn't see anywhere in the article it mention about a 6 cylinder ecoboost. Any thoughts to this new 4 banger. Good, bad, otherwise?
Do they make a 8 cylinder ecoboost?
