Upset? Hardly.

Is there a very lucrative secondhand roof rack market in California? It seems like an odd part to make off with.

It will. Like every other version of GTA I've played in recent history, the console versions will hit first. Seeing the initial lack of a PC version, many will begin to worry and speculate. Then, miraculously, after approximately half a year it'll come out on PC.

That's on BMWs.

I'm one year younger than this "boy" and I'm worried for the future of "my generation," nay, my country.

Now playing

I guess M3's handle pretty poorly as well.

I really do think that hooning and cars in general are an international language. A yet-unexplored pathway to world peace. Our love of the car can unite us, except for the bosozoku crowd, they're just too weird.

It's a carbureted CHEVY V8. That's where his problems started.

Good point. Sign me up as well.

Air-Metal Battery?

A JUKE-BOX HEE-ROH!

Here we see the Common Dumbass in his native habitat.

That's the Modular design's limitation, bore is limited and piston speed is a concern as stroke increases. The actual bore of my old 5.0 HO is more than the bore spacing of the Coyote. The 6.2 "Boss" in the trucks is a different design that addresses this, the bore is just over 4" and the stroke is 1/10th of an inch

Yeah, I forgot about that. The 4.6 is already about the size of an old FE big block to begin with(exterior dimensions, not displacement).

The '00 Cobra R did, and the Shelbys have one in supercharged form. There is a downside to an all-motor 5.4 in a performance car though. This is something I brought up when someone pitched the idea of a "Boss 351."

That's not entirely accurate. The old small-block 5.0s had a pretty distinctive tone that I can best describe as throaty. The 4.6s, especially the 2-vavles, had a certain similarity but were a but more... bubbly. I once heard someone say that that generation of Mustang "sounds like it's running in a bathroom."

The problem with the Boss 351 idea is that the 5.4 Mod motor (and by extension, it's larger bored brother the 5.8) has such a long stroke that piston speed can get extreme rather quickly. This limits the RPM the engine can be taken to, thereby limiting the engines N/A power potential.

What's really disturbing is when the horn starts going off. Logically, something could have melted and shorted the circuit, but it's almost as if the car was crying for help.

Had a guy at the local car meet pull a similar (enough) stunt a while back in a ragged out early-SN Mustang (NPI 4.6).

My vote's on the '03-'04 "Terminator" SVT Cobra. Mustangs have distinctive sounds as it is, but the sound of a supercharger makes it unmistakeable.
