2013 GT500 - 5.8L w/ Interactive Launch Control

[Loco1234]

Interactive Launch Control is now being used on the new 2013 GT500. According to the magazines... It's awesome...

& Ford bored the 5.4L to make 5.8L w/ under piston oil squirters, increased compression ratio & now uses the TVS 2.3L root super... Now pushing upward of 650HP & 600FT/TQ

Now that should be interesting. If that tire burning monster could actually launch it would be all over for a huge amount of "Super" cars.

They have also raised the REV limiter & now its 2 stage to work with the launch control system...
Supposedly its good for upto 8 sec bursts of 7250rpm but the tach on the dash goes to 9k
