From my understanding about the Ford GT40, it was made out of spite from Ferrari refusing to get bought out by Ford, due to financial reasons, because Ford would have control over when they could compete and the reason why they were having financial trouble was Ferrari kept building cars to beat the Corvette, which was known as the most powerful car during that time.

So, in other words, the GT40 was an indirect consequence caused by GM.

Well, /o/tists, Yesterday, we lost one of the big guns of the aftermarket industry.

Vic Edelbrock Jr. died last night from respiratory complications.

Just thought the rest of you should know. I'm gonna go peruse the company catalog again and have a memorial beer for one of the guys who helped to make engine modification as easy as it is today.

The irony is not lost on me. But dude DID serve as president of SEMA in the early 70's, and also talked to legislators to help keep the aftermarket industry alive and legal, if it helps to understand the impact here.

Explain to me why buying a 2017 Elantra Sport is a bad idea.

I've been driving my Sonata for 10 years and want something newer. Before I was looking at the Mazda 3 and the new Civic Hatch. I hate the CVT and the shitty head unit in the Civic that lacks physical buttons for the radio and HVAC controls. The Mazda is in serious need of a refresh and I dislike the louder cabin and worse head unit.

The new Elantra Sport is cheaper than both. It has a multilink rear suspension. It's quieter than the Civic and Mazda and comes with a 7 speed dual clutch. It's HUGE inside and has a better infotainment system. It has the same 1.6L turbo out of the Veloster.

I can pick then up for thousands less than MSRP and they have a longer warranty and theres a hatchback version coming out in a few months and I want a hatch.

Why SHOULDN'T I just get a new Elantra Sport hatch rather than a Civic or 3? It seems obvious since they're seemingly just as good if not better and are ridiculously cheap.

Just get whatever gives you the most bang for the buck (probably the Hyundai). I wouldn't keep it for too long though, The resale on them isn't amazing.
>>
>>17354089
>pros
10yr/100k warranty
cheap
luxo-bloat that you seem to like
>cons
1.6L may be a bit lacking
turbo means more stringent maintenance schedule
depreciation
>>
I would still get the Civic.

Actually, Dodge offers "scat pack performance" stage kits for the 5.7 L Hemi V8 which go all the way from stage 1 to stage 3. Going through will all the stage kits gets you from 375 hp/400 lb-ft to 450 hp/454 lb-ft

http://www.motortrend.com/cars/dodge/challenger/2015/2015-dodge-challenger-mopar-scat-pack-3-first-drive-review/

>"Proper installation of these kits preserves the original warranty"

Additionally, Dodge offers a few suspension upgrades (coilovers, sway bars, strut tower braces, etc) as well as exhausts and intakes too.

But i still do think Ford has a much better selection of performance parts for its mustang ecoboost and GT.

Use your phone. Like, seriously. Nav systems, even dedicated ones like Garmin/TomTom/Magellan suck compared to Google Maps and/or Waze. And head unit nav systems are just terrible, every last one of them.

The only one I ever saw that was even passable was some shitty Chinesum HU that ran Android, and because of that, you could install iGo software. But even that wasn't good.

Want a half decent HU for your truck? Get a Pioneer DEH-80PRS. That's pretty much the only new sub-$300 deck that's worth a fuck. Even new Alpines, and this pains me to say, because I'm a massive Alpine fan-boy, are pretty shit at that price point.

Alright dieselbros, I need your assistance. Looking to buy either a 6.7 Ford Powerstroke from 11-14 OR a 6.6 Duramax from 08-14. If you have either of these engines in your truck, please comment and tell me your thoughts. I know the 6.7 PSD is fairly reliable, but I'm new to learning about the Duramax. Which one of these engines will be more reliable and treat me better as a daily driver? I will use it occasionally to tow a gooseneck horse trailer, but not too often.

Thank you!

Don't go with a '11 6.7, first year and they had the typical teething issues. 12+ are solid as hell. Can't help you with the duramax. We recently deleted and tuned my bosses '12 6.7, and it is an absolute monster, although in my opinion they make more than enough power stock.
