0-60

[escort?]

What is the 0-60, 1/4 times of a stock... say 95 SHO, because my friend was saying 6.6 to 60 but that seems a little too quick? any answers will be appreciated.

That's about right. Then again, it all depends on ATX or MTX and the Yamahas seem to vary alot from car to car...but 6.6 is feasible.

So what do they usually run in the 1/4 stock?? like a 15.2?

 

[Ryan]

All depends, I've seen a bone stock 92 run a 14.7, but typically anywhere from a 15.0-15.6 depending on the driver on a MTX, ATXs usually 15.3-15.7, the Gen III (whichh had the 3.4L V-8) are in the same ball park

hmm.. cheaper and quicker than a contour svt.. minus some of the handling I guess. I may be in the market, my dad still wants me to get a new car, and since this is a late model ford he might go for it. My cousin in Okmulgee has one, but I have yet to see it.

Uh Oh, now your are gonna get a flame war started with saying its faster than a CSVT. IMO they are Faster, or at least feel faster. Yes the handling/braking is way off from a CSVT. Yet they do seem to respond better to mods. Tho IMO the CSVT is a better all around package stock.

Also, if your serious about getting a SHO, do research first, and know what you are getting into. They are not cheap to fix. I mean, how many other cars have a Yamaha under the hood?

But if you do, good luck, and you'll love it!

It's more like a second job for me. when she's running good (which she hasn't for a long time) then the car is a blast to drive. the look on peoples faces when your secondaries open up is well worth it

I thought everyone knew the SHO is faster than the CSVT...

My best is in my profile, 9.8@75MPH in the 1/8 th, and a 6.3 0-60 MPH. I have yet to see a stock CSVT pull those numbers.

You maybe right about a 'stock' contour. But a few guys with just exhaust & kn have pulled 14.7s. Actually it was SVT2000 if i remember right. The only thing I like MORE about the contour svt is the total package IMO is better (braking & handling stock are tons bettr than the sho.)
