05 V6 runs 12.8

Pauls High Performance brought a V6 stang to the V6 Ford Challenge this weekend in Michigan. It was a stock V6 motor with underdrive pullies, cold air kit, JBA headers, poly motor mounts, SCT tuning and a 75 HP shot of nitrous. It ran 13.9 ALL MOTOR and a best of 12.8 on the spray. It should run mid 12's with more practice driving it, this was its first time to the track since the tune.



here are a few more pics from Saturday

Yeah that is awesome, them 05s aren't some lightweight!!! Them new 05 V6s have forged H beam rods and stuff from the factory too... not sure what they are running for pistons but I think just cast. I'd love to get a '05 V6 and turbocharge it. Long as you kept the A/F safe [a tad rich], made sure to run race fuel [Sunoco 104 no lead] and went easy on total timing [so that cylinder pressure at low RPMs isn't throught he roof] I bet you could get the cast pistons to live to 15 PSI. That would be some BIG power output. Esp TQ

Wow, I didn't know that. It's a good idea to run a bottom end like that
