No joke.
I no longer have this car but thought it was worth noting for you folks here.
2012 3.7 DOHC V6 w/Direct Injection Mustang with Auto transmission and 2.73 rear gears.
Had factory high rolling resistance tires. Michelins.
EPA Rated at 31 MPG Highway.
Mods where...
- SCT flash programmer
- Low flow dual exhaust (don't remember what mufflers I put on it).
- Cold Air Intake
My daily commute was 27 miles each way. 95% mostly flat highway.
It got a very, very consistent low/mid 30s MPG and believe it or not, it got around 36-37 MPGs when I was driving for mileage. Maintaining 65 MPH.
I truly believe that someone could hit 40 MPG Highway out of this setup with aeromods.
With the mods, it was rated around 325 HP. For a V6, that sombich would flat out "get it" when I wanted it too !
Oh, BTW, wife made me get rid of it cause it was a chick magnet! LMAO !
I really miss that car.
Here's some pics. Enjoy!
