NO, i'll keep my titan. the front end does remind me a bit of the chevy silverado SS though...

and after seeing some of the photos... hmm i should work for a magazine.

Im putting on the headers this week that have been sittin in my garage for 2 weeks. hoping to break into the 8's.
Not bad, my CC titan is running anywhere from a 9.0 (best) to a 9.2 in the 1/8th. I too have headers laying around waiting to be put on

Yeah dude, but ive seen your titan on youtube, your trucks a beast, crazy fast for a full size. Trucks in the shop as im writing this, picking it up tomorrow. Cant beat a header install for $210. It saves me a whole saturday.

Re: Since i know you guys will appreciate this...

That Foose Ford is a shame....Ford obviously is boosting the hp numbers....i ran a 14.9 (same as the roush f-150 and .2 slower than that foose) with intake and exhaust in a Crew Cab, whats that put me at 280 at the wheels lol...i think it looks cool, but if i had to go ford i would hit up a used lightning....if i had to get rid of my titan (wont happen for a long time) i would get a Tundra, all cheaper Trucks that perform waaay better

Take into account fords weight and drive line loss and you will understand. I don't have anything against ford... unless it is driven by blown330. I am sure they last a long time and everything.. just not my cup of tea, unless it is a lightning.

2 cars discussed here...GT500 and Ford GT. One's a Mustang, the other is a supercar. The GT500 is a low to mid 12 second car stock (already stated this), the FGT (the supercar) is a high-10 to mid-11 car stock. Never even implied a GT500 could keep pace with a C6 Z06...so where did you read that?...

Come on man drop it, I see where everyone on here gives you a hard time. THIS THREAD IS NOT ABOUT MUSTANGS OR SUPERCARS, its about trucks, and how fords new s/c joke of a performance bus is way over priced. Guess us AMERICAN MADE "import" truck owners are just lucky that our TRD and NISMO models dont add $20,000 to the sticker price like roush, foose, and shelby do. Imagine if you put $20k....hell, even $10k into a tundra or titan, theyd be well into the 11's.

amen!!! lol, thats exactly the point!!! for the same price of 55k--(i got my Titan for 15k)---i would be in the 8's lol.....for that truck to be respectable with that much reported HP/tq, it should be in the low 13's

Very well said. Couldnt of said it better myself. But Im a FORD guy but its still sad that a F-150 supercharged is in the 14s. Arnt the TITAN and TUNDRA in the 14s stock? Even if we are in the 15s, thats jus a second behind. Im disappointed by FORD.........

Re: Since i know you guys will appreciate this...

ya tundras are 14's stock...i think their biggest Tundra, the crewmax runs around a 14.7-14.9...the reg cab can hit very low 14's....07+ Titans can run a low 15 while 04-06 usually run a mid 15.....i know i ran a 15.27 with just intake and a 2* timing advance and a 14.9 with additional exhaust and Tru-track...now that i'm tuned i should be 14.4-14.5...all for less than 2k
