I don't know how the NA 4.8 guys put up with it!

Haha no man, I did a 10psi launch pushing around 16psi and the tires didn't make a peep. For some reason this thing hooks ******* hard. Even in 2wd once the weight transfers it won't break loose. My ECSB would have been all over the place, but not this truck. No more rolling burnouts...but I think the pros outweigh the cons

who knows, you might have so much fun with the 4.8 you might keep it and boost it too the moon until it pops...IF it pops.

430rwhp mustang vs the 4.8/11psi. Still does pretty good on low boost. That car traps 115 in the 1/4.
