Octane is literally the thing that prevents engine knock. So Higher Octane = More goodnessIt amazes me that you can gain that much HP just by using premium fuel.

I watched a video of a tranny shop rebuild of a a 10r80 that had been drag racing. Their conclusion is it's fine up to 700+hp at which point the clutch packs wear out before the rest of it.Wonder how much the 10R60 will be able to handle
Unless the EPA has it's way... They've been raiding tune shops that sell defeat emission devices. Just a matter of time until they completely kill tunes.And with a Tune it will be even higher!
I think we'll find out... Those clutches will be the first to burn though.Wonder how much the 10R60 will be able to handle
because the numbers are probably going to suck for a vehicle produced in 2021...lolNow that the HP and Torque numbers are out and we can decide between fuel octanes, maybe someone can find the ELUSIVE MPG numbers!!
I don't know why the MPG is such a secret that they won't publish it? what could they possibly gain by holding out on that info?
I’ve used premium only for 7 years now.Odd that they list it with premium. Do they do that with the F150? Either way, mine will never see premium in the tank unless it comes with it.
Still lame. Mustang should be a manual. If you want faster, put a blower on it. GT350 transmission is an absolute beast.I fell down the rabbit hole of looking up 10R80 mustangs the other night. I wasn't sure why everyone was touting the 10spd auto over the stick shift. Hooooo boy. Makes the same engine much faster with just a transmission change.
Thats what I've seen too. Ford ecoboost numbers are always with premium gas in the tank.Peak HP/Torque is always listed with premium, at least Ford does with their ecoboost stuff in my experience.
I remember when you used to denounce that the Bronco could be run on regular. Wait, Pepperidge Farm remembers. That is everyday, including today!I remember when everyone got mad when I mentioned premium fuel. Lol enjoy that regular fuel.
10R60 = 10 speed 600lbftWonder how much the 10R60 will be able to handle
