BBP: 2014 GT500 vs TT 5.0

[WSsick]

Thanks guys. He is throwing some mods at the 500 this weekend, I believe he said intake pulley and a tune. Hope to get a rematch after that.

those mods are definitely gonna require some tire, tell him to put some 555R in 305 size, they fit the stock wheel.

I'm impressed .. Couple times it walked away hard . Remember boost for boost a 5.0 makes more than a gt500 .. Just new technology and great heads ... I've had both .. These 5.0s are animals after 5000.. Good race . I think both on a sticky tire would be a good race

Has nothing to do with the technology. It simply put, the Coyote has higher compression. That is all.

My 305/35-20 555r's were useless at my 690rwhp level in 2nd gear. Especially in this colder weather. It would light them up @70mph in 3rd gear just from a punch. (3.73 gear).

And this I agree with and I was at lower power than 690

Skip the 555R and go straight to an NT05R.

Lol...5.0@6psi beats the GT500 at the only thing its good at lol.....I love 5.0's and would take it or a boss anyday over GT500.

 

[speedieGT500]

I'm still confused at the 6psi argument... Yeah 6 psi on a much higher compression ratio motor...

Not the sharpest tool in the shed.

How about a GT500 or a c6z? You must pick ONE.


I also like how the compression argument is being thrown around. What about a .8 liter advantage? I guess in a perfect world this race should have:
5.0TT @ same compression as the GT500, and same weight :lol:
GT500 @ 6 psi on the supercharger
:kaboom:

 

[speedieGT500]

No doubt there bit just laughing at the 6psi comments like that's the only thing that determines what power the car makes.

fun runs

Easy choice....would never own a vette. Ford>Chevy IMO

Sharp enough to spend money on a 5.0 and TT kit and save over buying a one dimensional 13/14 GT500 :beer:

 

[big reg]

6psi on an 11:1 motor is a lot different than 6psi on an 8.5-9:1 motor. Boost is a measure of restriction on a given engine, nothing more.

That would be like arguing about how the coyote can only handle 8 psi but the Trinity can handle 17. Means nothing and is based on several factors.

because a tt gt is not one dimensional? what else could it do other than going fast in a straight line while praying that the motor does not fry?

I never said a TT 5.0 wouldn't be one dimensional.....read the post again . I said I am smart enough to save money doing that rather then buying a 13/14 GT500

Ok moving forward with the video and follow up. What's the mods the Shelby's doing to try to play ketchup?

Looking forward to more videos of these to care battling.

 

[nonliberal]

To be fair to the Shelby, I just saw 2 races from a dig where the Shelby raped the 5.0, but they didn't get posted.... Not sure why?

I think in the 1/4 mile these would be some great races judging by how hard the Shelby pulled off the line then how the TT pulled up top.

This video only shows the 5.0s strongest part.

Keep in mind I have a 5.0 so I like to see them win, I just like to see both sides of the story.

Really makes me reconsider going the blower route ( VMP TVS or Kenne Bell 2.8) and possibly go the TT route with either hellion or the lund kit when it hits the market.
