Just Test drove the 2.3L EB Mustang

[Txstrmhntr]

Nice package, it was a Premium edition RR metallic auto trans, no perf pack though they didnt have any with it.

First Impressions,

How can I say this... It has enough power to surprise you, it had more pull than I was expecting. But on the same note it was a tad bit disappointing. Just doesnt have the same butt dyno effect that the SHO does. Could a tune really wake it up enough to make it really enjoyable? Thats the question I think im going to have to wait for.

Just a tune nets mid 12's. From some facebook (taken not so seriously) reviews I read, they were saying it felt sluggish cornering. How'd the maneuverability feel to you?

It was rush hour here in ft worth so while i did take it onto the freeway there really wasnt much room for really getting a feel for it. I did romp it pretty well on the off and on ramps and it corners better than the SHO for sure. The weight balance feels really solid and almost no discernible body roll. After talking with the wife tonight, I think im going to pull the trigger and get one, going to swap over my alky kit onto it and talk to Torrie or Cobb(since there pretty much local). Maybe i can get it into the 11s by summertime

Lucky you!!!

I've seen Livernois and Torrie put up some nice #'s for this super new project. This ecoboost will have a ton of aftermarket support for sure.

A tune REALLY makes a difference in the EB Stang! Tighter shift points, more responsiveness and of course more power...its like a new car. Add up to 56 horsepower and 87 Ft. Lbs of torque to your 2015 2.3L EcoBoost Mustang with Livernois Motorsports' MyCalibrator tuning device!

Hey Rich, honestly to me it feels like a Mustang in the corners...good going in fun coming out. It is responsive to your input but ultimately wants to go straight. Lowering the car with some slightly wider (.5-1") wheels and tires I think would help a ton!

Thx for the feedback. Being nice you are I see...lol. Going into corner feels good, coming out is fun. Love it, not the most effective way I bet, but hard to beat fun!

[/quote] Jaimie for the record,what is your best assumption regarding horsepower for example a 13-14 SHO with just a tune,thanks Z.

360 to the wheels is my guess

Basically on the money, 60-65WHP and 80-85WTQ.

I have been a mustang fan for quite a while know,after reading an article from mustang 360,Livernois Motorsports was mentioned there related to performance on the mustang,guess they have to be doing something right. http://www.mustangandfords.com/how-to/engine/0302mmff-mixmatch/

+1 for Erick at Leading Edge

Just a Livernois tune nets mid 12's.

Fixed for you. Just had to do this as to date, we are the only ones that have gone 12's on only a tune and a tire (mind you, with heavier than stock wheels too) Everyone else has either been on race gas to do it, or had bolt ons as well. I think we are the only non-performance pack car to be in the 12's as well. So far, seems like history repeating itself on what we can accomplish with an EcoBoost vs. everyone else. We ran that quick 2 months ago, and in 2 months no one has been able to touch our numbers in an apples to apples comparison.

 

[ZSHO]

If there for (example) is a ten year anniversary,will be the first one to attend this well deserved acheivement.

Roger that fix...I try to play nice most times
