Take the 114mph limiter off and the engine goes to shyt amongst other issues with tuning though.

Driveshaft, sure. Not the engine.....

Yup. The guys that mod them usually replace the drive shaft then they can go however fast the car can safely.

Boosted the engines are making 450whp safely. The limit is 500+ on stock internals after a while. Someone just blew up at 550whp after 5-6 months.

Yeah my bad. I was about to correct that. Had a brain fart.

Finally a sane comment

No tune issues either unless the tune is no good... and that is a risk with any car.

Yeah, this thread really belongs in the Other Vehicles section.

This whole thread has been very sane... :rolleyes: go troll a different thread.

Its all gravy brotha.

Not bashing the v6 stang. Just my opinion though. I really wouldn't want a stock car that is limited to 114mph, without a limiter hits 130mph and with extensive modification can hit 155mph to 160 tops. Not my cup of tea.

I understand. The limiter is set there for the drive shaft, though. Replace it and you're only limitation is your tires. To keep the v6 price down Ford compromised with a single piece shaft susceptible to some gnarly harmonics at high speed.

In retrospect though... the mustang v6 makes the perfect entry level tuner car with guys that want to enter the sport. :tup:

Yeah it used to not be that way at all!

I think I still like the new altima style better though

Weird. I rarely see any FWD cars converted to RWD...
