[QUOTE="guarnibl, post: 13483886, member: 33086"] To be fair, we all know Dyno's lie -- but the sheet I saw put it over 700 at the motor. Pretty much every bolt on possible was done to the car. I actually just talked to a friend of the guy today and he corrected me and stated that was running race fuel. I'm sure it's possible it's fudged. I haven't been in the vehicle or met the tuner :) I did some browsing though and did see people hitting 620-630 -- perhaps race gas is the difference here? Or he's just lying. Or the dyno was wrong (kind of leaning this direction). I certainly saw the sheet...(easy to fudge -- but not sure why he would bother). I do understand CAFE standards are an average across their fleet of vehicles. The reason I mentioned it is because in general companies are improving the fuel efficiency of their vehicles to meet CAFE standards and customer demand. Fuel efficiency in sports cars are increasing across the board. I do not see that trend stopping. But yeah, for a limited production model (assuming the GT350 would be?) they can certainly do whatever they want here. I see them continuing to milk the 5.0 though. It's the best motor they've put in the high production # Mustangs that I can re-call in a very long time. They'll milk it as long as it's competitive. Ford loves changing stuff though. And it's 50 years. We'll see. I just don't think they will steer from the sound. Anything else is fair game in my eyes. [/QUOTE]
