Robertp Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 Anyways car has 1600 miles know, been watching the site, so I finally joined. I've got plenty of fast cars but there 2 door terminators a 03 and 04 mistachrome, and a 95 tbird pushing 660rwhp, but this sho is sweet it's the fancy car I've every owned and the 7 month old can ride along. I must say I'm very impressed with the ecoboost, come fall I hope to run some 13.7 maybe quicker, we usaully get some killer -da's here! May do a tune after that just kinda waiting on sct to have access to the 13s then looking at livernos for a tune I can't spell. Just traded a 11 fusion sport for the sho I raced it and managed a 14.8 @ 95.8mph the car couldant be launched for crap being I had the fwd model! Nice to meet u all Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpoolinX2 Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 What's up Robert! JeffTBird93 from TCCoA here. Didn't know you picked one of these up! You should be able to hit a 13.7 down your way as temps cool. I ran mine a few weeks back at Summer Blast, bone stock non-PP car at 13.8@102 in Mason Dixon summer conditions.

EcoBrick Bob Posted September 6, 2012 Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 NICE!! Looks similar or same as Red Candy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve142857 Posted September 6, 2012 Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 Looks nice! I changed a 2009 FWD Fusion V6 that I had tuned. From 221hp to about 260hp. Ran best of 14.9 at 93.5mph... Traction was an issue and was frustrating. I love AWD; it was a decisive factor in favor of the SHO and I knew the turbos would be receptive to tuning... Very happy of my choice! Enjoy your ride!

Robertp Posted September 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 Same here on the awd ad my fusion had the 3.5 263hp and 250 tq the tires would just smoke like crazy on a hard acceleration run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tss Posted September 6, 2012 Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 You think that's bad....my 09 Impala SS was the worst ever. Horrible torque steer. I could be traveling on dry pavement, new tires, at 20 MPH, mash the pedal and spin them like crazy. Sucked in the winter even with my dedicated smaller rims and snow tires. That kind of power in a FWD Impala or Fusion is not a good thing I discovered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoMoCoSho Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Same here on the awd ad my fusion had the 3.5 263hp and 250 tq the tires would just smoke like crazy on a hard acceleration run It seems there are a few of us that dumped our Fusions for the SHO.....We still have ours but I haven't touched it since I bought the SHO. We had a 2011 FWD Sport also. FWD=too much power. AWD=not enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
