My SHO does peel out, especially from a slow roll. Tricks the AWD and it reacts and kicks the back end out if turning. Try going about 15mph, coasting down to 5mph, and then turning and hammering it. Front wheels spin, then rears catch and the inrush of power makes them slip ever so slightly, but usually enough for a slight kick to the side. If you want a real boost, figure out how to use electric motors for the RWD part and use them as boosters on acceleration. I've seen small examples of this in RC vehicles. Gas engine for rear but electric motor for the front wheels

My SHO spins too, however are referring to Mr Know It All's post of why his SHO will not do a burn out. He was baffled why a car that makes this much tq, wont burn out...even when you punch it and turn the wheel.

I did burnouts so hard driving before i blew my engine that it would says ptu overheating or something like that and then say fwd only and then it would light the fronts up through 4 gears hahaha

What i would do is turn off traction control. Then in sport mode in manual. Id run it hard that it bounces off the rev limiter and then wont shift by itself and then anytime you stomp it, it would kick out all the time but you had to trick it somehow first. And then if done too much it would go into fwd mode. Ill get a go pro next time once i make sure this engine is good hahaha

Its like if you stomped it enough the esc would just say screw it and pretend to not exist, till i started the engine again

Lol too funny. I never once used the word burnout. I said it wouldn't spin the tires AT ALL. You douchenozzles go ahead and extrapolate that into thinking I wanted to drift, or melt the tires, or whatever you want if it helps you prop up your fragile loser egos, but reality is that those ideas only came from you just sucking so bad at comprehension that you could start a black hole if you tried to actually exercise your brain cell. I'll leave y'all morons in peace to smell each other's farts and ******* each other with misinformation. Can't wait to see which one of you sets a new record with that mythical unmodified 240° tstat 500whp FWD-only sho by launching in 4th to save shift times :popcorn:

Man even i know stock is 180 degrees. I got a 160 in it and its been at idle for a half hour and its barely past 180

@SM105K you're right and I'm sorry to everyone for being an a-hole. I do get worked up too easily. I'll just go ahead and block you and Jordan. That way y'all won't have to feel so threatened by any opposing ideas anymore and won't be compelled to start puffing your chests and trolling me.

I just choose to ignore idiots. No reason to sink to their IQ. When I see em struggling, I laugh and continue on. The worst part about idiots is they usually group together. Avoid the herd. Fly solo. The internet is full of crap, just gotta run a coarse filter.

It's a little presumptuous to believe that you are sinking to someone else's IQ. Maybe believing that, without proof, is reflected in posts and makes them want to poke the self-congratulatory bear. :poke:

Jordan and I dont have to feel threatened. We have both done the leg work and researched what we speak about with knowledge on this platform. People like Shodded, BPD, and 802SHO just off the top of my head have also contributed (even more then I have) here as well. We pool the knowledge and can tell you pretty much what to do and what to expect.

When you newbs come on here and ask the same damn questions all the time, it gets cumbersome. Use the search function, guarantee it has been discussed numerous times.

Then you want to fight with us. Jordan has the fastest and quickest EcoBoost SHO, yet you want to argue with him. Talk smack when you set the mark. I have literally spent 100's of hours and a bunch of money documenting my build and giving the members here real world results both with dyno numbers and track times. Ask anyone, I am willing to help anyone and I try to answer the mundane questions.

What have you two done except SHO your ass?

I'll just say that things on paper vs things that people have tried in real life with more variables. The real life experience trumps whatever theoreticals someone comes up with.

And it also cuts the B.S. as well.

there are people who put up their time slips and dyno sheets.... well and then there are the others.
I have a huge stack of time slips from this year :) but only three dyno sheets with one more to go.
