^ actually mid 5 low 6 i meant. all depends on how you drive too, if you start it up and go test a 0-60 right away its gonna be hella slow. drive it hard a few times then try it once the beast is all cracked out!!

Would driving it hard work? I never really drive it hard cuz i dont wanna cause my non-oil consuming engine to start burning oil. 8 seconds is incredibly slow!!

ill try to record a video tomorrow and upload it so you all can witness and maybe give me more advice?

And again, being a calssifieds ghost for this site i believe your talking about this custom grounding kit. He has great reviews and it out performs most other kits.

I'm shifting in manual mode. I just can't seem to make power that hit the pavement and launches my car.

Do you guys think it could be exhaust? Maybe a kink somewhere along that line that is killing my performance?

Just did the spark plugs and now my car feels like it idles smoother but no gain on power really.

Clean/replace your air filter, reset your ecu. You're using 91 or above octane gas, right?

Air filter is super clean, spark plugs changed, oil is synthetic and just changed, just had big o tires look at it. Idk what the problem is, I haven't changed the oil in the differential and I'm at about 80000 miles now. Plus I checked my spark plugs and no oil at all. Not even on the coils that's one thing I'm really happy about.

^I would definitely change the oil in the diff, and tranny if that wasn't done yet either.

Did you reset the ECU yet? That should make a noticeable difference.

Yep I've done the pedal dance. Doesn't change much for my car. Tranny was changed at 70000 miles. Could it be the fact my altitude is 6000+ feet?

I don't know. Has anyone here done a 1/4 mile race here in Denver? I've heard alot of mustangs are running really slow times like 14.9 for the new 5.0L GT models.
