Whats the horsepower/torque to weight ratio on my 97?

Onemanzu · December 10th, 2006, 01:29 AM

... it just doesn't feel that quick and i think that it has a lot of weight to no power... its very sad

150hp and around 3000lbs

so that is like 0.05 :-(

Hmm my bro has a 96 5 speed. When I roll to about 2000 rmps and mash it I allways smile.

damn your family is one big happy mustang family, eh

flattusmaximus78 · December 10th, 2006, 06:02 PM

Ahh just about. My friend justin has a 99 v6, my friend mike has a 2000 v6, my friend thomas has 64 v6. The list will grow.

... yea same here... but still.. it doesn't feel as quick as my old rx7 did

GreenFaleen · December 10th, 2006, 09:22 PM

was the 7 a twin turbo cause if so that's because it probably isn't

Onemanzu · December 10th, 2006, 09:24 PM

... no it was n/a ... and falling a part... maybe it was cuz it had a really tight suspension and no weight to it...

side question. How much do the 96-98 v6's weigh? i read on msn auto it was like 3650lb i think and the curb weight in my door sais 4370 er around their. I thought the 6 was suposed to be lighter?

thats a possibility the 7's weigh nothing.

I know the 00 v6 ways like 3350 or something close to that
