Scotty Kilmer .... I can change my oil and filter, and on a good day, figure out where the cabin filter is. This guy, is talking all kinds of technical mumbo-jumbo to me.
@@Sitchinte It is human to think, because only humans can. What do you think advances the human condition, thinking or not thinking?
Never make a decision to stop learning things,---or else. :)
Drive train power loss varies, but is about a 10% loss. But 465 plus at the flywheel on a V6,---nice. There is no way to accurately measure drive train power loss unless you dyno both at the wheels and the crank. But you know that. You're in the ball park, but on the high side IMO. Nice car.
Hey Scotty whats this guys name and how do I get ahold of him I would really love to get ahold of him and do this with my 2007 ford mustang 4.0L v6
"my wife gave it to me as a birthday present" great wife, great life!
What problems have u had with the pro charger
V6 is definitely better on your insurance bill as well
Especially if you swap it out with a V8.
☝️this guy knows how to party☝️
Lol
ATX-CVPI I was just about to post this lol they wouldn’t even know lol

Nice video. It is good to see that there are people putting love in these v6 like myself. I have a '11 modified v6 as a daily driver as well. With a smaller engine in a big engine bay, the car is a joy to work on. These v6 are very reliable. Mine's got over 220k miles and it is still running strong.
220k!? Holy wow!
It's a miracle! Was it blessed by the pope?
These mustangs are tough. I take it on tracks, auto-x, and off pavement. Just oil change every 10k and never had an engine problem.
In 2011 was the first year Ford released a mustang with a new v6 engine 24 valves & duel overhead camshafts. Horsepower: 305 hp MPG: Up to 19 city / 31 highway Curb weight: 3,401lbs Engine: 3.7 L V6,
v6 3.8 twin turbo.
Got to love it when someone breaks away from the pack, does their own thing, and it turns out so well. Thanks for sharing your ride.
*my name is jeff*
👌
Brilliant lol
Leinad someone give this guy the attention hes lookin for
Hi name, my Jeff is Hi
Soon as i heard him say that i was dying lmao
I'm not a Mustang guy, but the spirit of this guy and how he translated it to his car make me love this one.
And now you can stick the 3.7L badges on the side of the car and have a nice little sleeper 😂
DE hybrid badging
Sleeper!
I applaud you sir those people just buy a huge engine spend a lot of money pressing the pedal when the way they go fast you earned your speed... Old school like myself let's hope the younger generation never loses the meaning of that old school never gets old. It feels so much better when you earn what you got
@@kevinbattaglia9255 I'm 15 in Junior year of high school and i can't find no one, not a single "real" car enthusiast like me. I've watched over two years worth of people leave and come in and still to this day no one has taken off their sheep skin. It's kinda sad to me, though at least the Internet exists and i can chat on car forums :)
Hopefully i find someone in the next year or so...
you keep living the dream my man! well deserved, you deserve it! I'm 41 and look forward to be in your footsteps!
I was never a mustang guy, until today - those mods are great
My cousin has a '13 Mustang V6. I drove the car and it was very great. It has enough power from stock.
Ill be honest I’m not mechanically inclined to do any of that stuff myself so I would’ve got the GT only for that reason. But I really like your car and all the mods you did. Nice Job.
Nothing wrong with that bro.
The 3.7 V6 was a good motor. Made 305HP in factory form, way better than the 4.0 it replaced and reasonably quick in manual form. I loved mine.
Imagine if the old ranger and explorer got that engine instead of the sad 4.0. The 4.2 was always a better engine than the 4.0.
simon lloyd 305 hp isn't low for an engine that size. At all.
I think it's just the weight of the mustang versus the others that makes it get ridiculed
what do you drive now? im in the market for a used car
I have one of the first built 2010 camaro a when they only came in v6, faster than all my friends ricers and my v8 truck.
Very nice upgrades! This guy has done some amazing tuning. It looks great and the saddle brown interior is gorgeous.
I love the Wacky Wednesday videos
I thought a burn out was gonna happen when I heard it revving
I thought it was a four door'75 Mercury Comet with a squealing rat in the exhaust.
Tony ARC that was a weak as rev
Just to clarify, I have an NA stock 3.7 and it sounds pretty rad for a v6.
I thought a wreck was about to happen
This might be the first V6 Mustang that I was really interested in. I love anything with an engine that I can drive really, but there are some that peak my interest more than others. I really like the story and how the owner made it exactly how he wanted it. It was different and unique. I like it.
Wow who would have thought 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Kudos to the Owner !
And Scotty you did it again , great video!!!!
Love the lil V6 Tang! But over 60 with a real lil hot rod, now I’m impressed!!!
They're squeezing that 6 good! You've been a busy young man Scotty.
Great car! I love the blue with that saddle interior. Never thought the brown looked good in cars, but this looks so good. Never even looked like it has over 100k miles on it. Someday I'd love a mustang. Always loved the foxbody ones from the early 90's late 80's. But I also love this 2012. Great choice! Thanks for posting.
Nicely executed modifications to the Beast, Jeff, and expert video. Especially love the old-school gear shift. Interior is striking. P.S. I've had an orange-stripe "cue ball" gear shift grip on my Toyota for years, loads of fun. Again, just beautiful job.
Luv the car! And happy to c another Stang driver who actually drives his car! Happy trails!
I always love a high powered modified V6. Some don't like the sound, I love it. Also, love the shifter!
Dicky Seamus as long as you keep the stock H pipe it sounds nice. X pipe is too raspy, dont even like them with v8’s
YES!
I have a stick shift 2011 performance pack premium v6 that still runs like a dream. Seriously considering supercharging it. Such a great looking car, extra 150 horses would be all the fun of a new car.
Great car! I love how you took a typical Mustang and made it unique instead of going the same route everyone else does with a V8 and the after market exhaust upgrades. Reminds me of the Grand Nationals back in the day.
Very generous of Scotty to showcase other creators work.
I love my 2012 Mustang Convertible v6. Over 150,000 on the car and still runs like a dream. Always take care of routine maintenance.
Very nice True Mustang, the brown seats make it nice, kind of 1960'ish.
thats one *Sweet Pony!* Nice hearing its got over 100k miles too! :)
Wow. A 6 cylinder with all that power. I had a bone stock 98 with just some modified exhaust. It was a joy to drive.
Your video is so inspiring I'm an old-school person I've never owned nothing past 1994 and I'm about to purchase a 2008 Mustang GT Deluxe it's got a V6 in the 4.0 and after watching your video wow very incredible thank you so much
An EXACT twin to my brother's Mustang!!!!!
Rev up your engines! 🏎💭💭
I also have a 2012 Mustang with only 39K miles, looking forward to adding a few mods. Great job!
Beautiful car Jeff! Thanks for sharing
That has got to be fresh paint, very nice for 100,000+ miles.
Michael Cook wrong if you take a look real closely when he shows the pony lin stripes you can see swirl Mark's all on the hood. Nice car over all
Fanboy, there are many 20yr. Plus cars in same conditon
In fact I'd argue it partly depends on how well the paint was put on in the first place. Some cars are notorious for having paint issues, while others, not so much.
Benjamin Esposti
Garage Keept and parking in shade' under Trees... plays a Major Role Also.
Depends where you live. Here in Arizona most cars have nice paint like this. Unless it’s bad paint it could catch some sun damage
I bet the best performance upgrade was the 485 hp sticker. That had to add 105 horsepower. Just kidding. Nice to the owner, I don't blame him, V8's are too mainstream and those who think we're not allowed to have options in our mustangs are probably sleeping with their sisters or brothers. We should be allowed to have our cars anyway we want them.
Yeshua Man Buying a V6 or 4 banger mustang is like buying a 4 banger large truck. Its just not going to do its job right.
You buy a Mustang for power, not looks. Lets face it, its still a Ford at the end of the day.
It just doesnt make any sense.
I disagree, I wanted a mustang for the looks, not power. If I wanted the power then I would go to the V8. But not everybody wants a powerful mustang. That's why we should have options. And as far as trucks you mentioned, I'd rather have an inline 5 than a v8, I don't plan on doing any towing, just hauling a few things and as long as it can keep up with the speed limits, that's all I need. I'd have more fun driving a slow car fast than a fast car slow. My mom has a 400 hp Camaro and it's a waste. By the time I get into 2nd gear after a few seconds, I'm already speeding. If you take it to the track, that's another thing.
There's nothing wrong with having options, but I do think the reason they didn't buy the V8 doesn't make any sense (for me at least). For you a V6 makes sense because you're not buying it for power, but they did want power and bought a V6 and then spent likely more than it would have cost to buy the V8 just to get the V6 up to the V8 power range. Buying a V8 for them would have likely saved them money, maintained any warranty the car had, and would have given the car better resale value.
Yeshua Man Haha. My civic coupe is for looking good and going the speed limit while getting great mpg. My CL600 was for looking sexy and doing 0-60 in 5 seconds while getting 3mpg at best under a heavy foot.
No sense in putting my civics 4 banger in my CL600. That would be stupid.
My opinion though. I guess Ford decided there was a market for slow stangs decades ago.
v8s are too mainstream? wtf are you on about?
Perfect and entertaining wacky Wednesday vids well done Scotty!
Very nice. The v6 mustangs are no joke. I'd love to have one
Very cool Mustang!
"Everyone has a GT...Everyone has a V8". Pretty sure more V6's are sold :p
Having said that...that is a niiiiiice ride man!
You misunderstood his meaning when he said that
everybody in the car community has v8’s*
Nice car Jeff! I would like to point out that that's not a cold-air intake. It's getting air from the engine bay, not from the grill area or the fenders.
That Mustang is beautiful, and unique! I want it!. Well done!
Outstanding: Weight to HP ratio has to be Great and if (if you haven't already) do suspension and brake up-grades; you got quite a bad-ass vehicle!!!
“My name is Jeff”
Today i was at a car show, and i saw this blue mustang. He said it was a supercharged v6 mustang that he got for his 60th birthday, turns out, ITS THIS GUY. i couldnt believe it, this random guy on scotty kilmers video lives right near me and was at a car show. I got to see this car up close and personal and man, is it impressive
I have a blue V6 pony package mustang too. I like the super charger you added.
Revvvv up the Scotty channel!
Insane with technology today. I have a boosted 351w V8, and at around 8psi of boost, im at around 465whp...crazy how this little v6 pumps out more power, with less boost.
I do doubt hes making 500ftlbs of torque like my motor is though lol
That's a beautiful car. Love the old school shifter. Love the supercharger
Looks cool that stang !!! Great video !!
Just don’t be like my neighbor and think you can beat everything at the track
I got scratch offs for my birthday
You are the man
Thank you. I have a 2017 pony with the 3.7l V-6. Been thinking about a super charger and keeping it as my daily driver.
The car is amazing and the story behind it even more!
More power to get further into the crowd at car meet! Nice👍
Nermin Tahirovic not cool my dad was shot by a mustang driver
Rob Spagrenetti it was a joke,and what does being shot have to do with mustangs?
Nermin Tahirovic guess it was just kinda offensive and the shooter had a mustang
the quintessential rental car.
Hesiod
That would be a 4 door sedan, not a coup.
That would be the Chevy Malibu or hyundai elantra
@Motor City Man someone hasn't ever been to a Hertz before.
morgan jones every few months I travel for work, lots of miles on rentals... the word Elantra makes me Triggered lol!
Hesiod Nope
Finally I see easy effective mods that really raise horsepower.
My 19yr old grandson has a 2013 Mustang with a V6..I wonder...he's just interested in looking cool not speed. Nice car. Nice mods!
I've never understood why they call it a "cold air filter" when it sits in the engine compartment.
Technically, the ones in the engine bay are called ram airs.
The air that goes into it is colder than the air that goes through a normal intake, which means more air can be taken in
Could’ve just taken the GT emblems off 🤔
DjDestinyChicago I know right 🤦🏾♂️
Benji M yeah...
Benji M It was a joke you fool
DjDestinyChicago LOL
gt emblems? i dont see them lol
As much as the car is great the guy is a beast of a narrator! Damn I haven't heard someone explain something with such fluency and ease in years.
Thank you very much. I will follow your guidance.
If you think all V6 Mustangs are boring, THIS might just change the way you think about them...
What was suppose to change my mind the fact that if you stick $10,000 in a V6 car you can make more power? Still would rather spend the extra money on 2 more cylinders and have a nice sounding car, I mean after all mustangs are suppose to be muscle cars.
Nope, still don't like it. But If it makes the dude happy then good for him.
Exactly its cool that its stick shift and he enjoys driving it just not my taste.
Johnny J my man, mustangs have never been muscle cars, the mustang made the pony class, its a sporty car but it was never a muscle car, same thing for cameros, their both pony cars, its cause their base model has a v6 automatic, this created the pony class back in the mid 60's
Ruszko you are 100% correct. It's all just personal preference
That intake is close to the engine how you figure it's cold air intake 🤔
When at a standstill maybe.
@@UnTamedMustang that would make it even hotter if your not moving.
That has to be one of the cleanest cool builds . 👍. Really nice car.
I just purchased a 2013 Gotta Have it Green V6. Apparently if you look up the production numbers, 1,186 GHiG v6 automatic coupes were created in 2013, so it's one of the 'rarer' ones. I'm planning on doing a bit of work to it starting with the air intake. I'm not going full bore with the pro charger (It's a $6,000+ addon) but strut brace, air intake, new driveshaft and 3.73 gears with a Bama tuner to re-tune the engine after the mods will do nicely... get a new wheel and tire package and I'll be done... stock the thing is damn good anyways, but tinkering is half the fun lol.
Hot air intake niceee 👍
EFsedan91LX lol, I was thinking Old Jeff would have leaned in the cowl induction mod 😂💦. He sounded like he pooped a few ludes.
And still made 415
Not really an issue when compressing the air through a turbocharger, Most are build for isothermal compression. Meaning it will strip the air of heat while compressing it.
"people don't waste their time on V8 mustangs lol Just think how much power you would be making if you put that much time and money into a gt500 lol"
"people don't waste their time on gt500s lol Just think how much power you would be making if you put that much time and money into a zr1 vette lol"
"people don't waste their time on zr1 vettes lol Just think how much power you would be making if you put that much time and money into a ACR Viper lol"
"people don't waste their time on ACR Vipers lol Just think how much power you would be making if you put that much time and money into a Veyron lol"
My thoughts exactly. People are never satisfied. I've owned two different V6 Mustangs, and I'm planning on buying a third once I find a nice one in my budget.
Lol, well said!
I like the car Jeff, thanks for sharing.
Scotty, love your channel! I should dust off my 2000 Roush Stage 2 and do a video on it!
485 HP rated with 415 at the rear wheels, and only breaking 13's in the quarter mile? Something not adding up Scotty. It should be at least in the 12's.
Shattered Dreams, thanks for the confirmation with stats.
He just needs slicks
John Smith He’s probably just being conservative with his time because it should move better then that.
He is most likely on street tires at the track. Slicks would improve his time by a whole second at least
John Smith He literally said it runs “well below 13s” in the video.
My name is Jeff 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Too many jeff's in the kitchen. my once owned '66 Chevelle Malibu or current '69 Chevelle Malibu unmodified or 71-76 Plymouth Duster will make a Mustang out to be Tinker Toys. Get out the Model A, there's a Mustang that wants to race. By the way, I love my Ford Edge.
Kudos for actually driving it and enjoying it.
I have a 2007 v6 with some mods love what you did to it
Hi, My name is jeff
johnthecarlord u poor idiot
My name is Jeff, and a '73 Maverick would sound better with something on the exhaust pipe that makes the owner think they have something big in their pants...like a fat mother in law with sharp teeth.
this is literally the same mod i have on my G37, but mine is 8 psi with stock pulley and i make about 500hp
i smoke v8's all day long, but i will admit those v8's sound way better than my car when they are losing lool.
+1 to someone finally not owning a shitpiece G35.
with 500 whp you better be smoking just about anything. considering most v8s make anywhere from 380 to 470 whp stock. you can boost just about anything and make alot of power if the engine allows it.
Lol, sweet setup bro. However, you know that same blower on v8's turns them into monsters.
Russ A Id still rather have a stock 5.0 then some gay g37 or any 370z bs car...
Nice car ! Love the mods good on gas and has a lotta ass! Best of both worlds!
Not a pin strip guy but that is kick ass! Nice car brother!
very cool, nice car. I love your voice and approach. great job
Now imagine those mods on the 4,9, I mean 5.0 coyote, not sure why you would start out with a v6, if you can afford the eight...
lol EVERYONE gets the v6 in all 3 of the "muscle" cars of today cuz they want that look of a muscle car but with a cheaper car and motor, they dont give a damn about how much of an abomination it is to not get a v8 in a mustang, so this guy got it ass backwards in the video, everyone gets the v6, not the v8
Cause they want and can afford the car now, and can modify it later if they want. It's part of the fun.
He literally explained in the video why he wanted the v6
lol at the shop i work at there are 8 customers with mustangs, only 1 has a v8 and its a 22 year old kid.
Lol if i wanted a mustang it would have to be v8 or in not getting one
Its all about being (SLEEPER)
I have a question for you regarding a 2017 Mustang V-6. What is the electronic box that is located beneath the engine under the front sway bar?
Scotty, great channel Sir.
I wanted something unique, so I got a v6 Mustang. Think you need to look up unique.
You're missing the point, a tastfully modded 485hp V6 Mustang. How is that not unique?
@@dakotanewcombe7843 it's not unique in the sense of it's still a factory option engine. It's not like he 2j swapped it
Man if you would've got a 5.0 you could have about the same power and performance with a stock motor. Plus that sound, when you revved it at the beginning. Lmfao I'm sorry but the 5.0 sounds like a beast compared to that six you got. I'd rather have that amazing sound then a more powerful 6 cylinder lol. Just saying. Also my stock 2012 can run under 13 in a quarter with no upgrades to the engine at all, so all that money you spent on that 6 just to be equal to a stock 2012 5.0
V8 would run cooler as well
I guess he was trying to be differant.
Nice ride! I like that an older person has pretty much the same car I do. I just watched a video with a younger, around 20 year old, kid had the same procharger this guy has but his made 500hp. Not too far off. Supercharger, Turbo.. I dunno. I like the naturally aspirated for now. There's so much you can do with these cars. That's my favorite thing about them.
A beautiful car and some cool mods. Thanks to the owner.
Rather have a Chevy
Lol no especially the
2019
Cause you need something to hold down the tow trailer?
Turned v6 are better than v8. Especially when it comes to handling. There's a reason why the new Ford gt has a v6
Ashish Patel it has a 6 because that Ecoboost was a proven power plant...and they could achieve what they wanted out of it. Which was more topspeed based than handling based. The amount of cylinders doesn't always equal a heavier engine. And if you told me to build a race car...I'm more than likely going to go with an 8 cylinder
Ashish Patel then why are most race cars(including German cars) built with v8s?
Um most race cars are not V8s. Indy Car and Formula 1 racing use V6s
C Rush most gt cars are v8s, dtm cars are v8s, stock cars are V8, and drag cars are almost always v8s. Indy car and f1 combined don't have as many series to compare to Nascar even, much less the drag racing or gt racing.
Yep, and the only cars faster than Indy car and F1 are drag cars. The rest of them "V8's" would get smoked. Also the greatest spectacle in racing is the INDY 500 so your point in meaningless.
Wow, I love that Pin Stripe Art on the hood. Wow
Beautiful. I always felt that the V6 must have more potential than the puny four banger.
You thinking of a v8 mustang scott? V6 only has 201 hp
Rob Spagrenetti its obviously modified dude
Rob Spagrenetti the curent v6 mustangs 2010+ make 300hp with the 3.7 v6 they were using and 2015+ has ecoboost
Darn it, did you Google?
Will M. i keep up to all cars especially after redesigns
Rob Spagrenetti watch the video next time you throw shade
400+ hp but still has stock wheels and tires. Okay buddy.
Khargan I’m just saying that he could get some better tires.
It is his car and I don't think he cares what you think about it. The wheels look good to me and the Continental tires are excellent.
How do uk he drives at full throttle..its a daily driver and he takes care of it why would he. Not everyone likes to destroy their car. Even sports car cant handle full throttle. Its all a bunch of bull. U have to do extreme maintenance if you want to.
Paul Smallriver If he can’t handle comments about his car, then maybe he shouldn’t have posted a video of it on the internet.
VanSaucy yah cuz he has to receive criticism for no reason when he posts a video right
Very cool v6 stang don’t get much love. I have one and I have had fun with it and holding up great plan to up the hp on mine though
Wish I had that kind of car mechanic skill.
Don't like v6's 😲
Brian Samuels I like the six have you forgotten about the Buick grand national
John Jackson I haven't forgotten about buick GN. One of buddies have one in its original condition. I'm just not a fan of V6 engines. I like 4 cylinders and 8V's
Carl Ryan 😂😂😂 yeah right!
Brian Samuels Cool story. Glad that’s cleared up...
No thank you
That is one nice Mustang from someone who usually doesn't care about those cars. Love the leather color.
Nice car. That's a lot of work for a v6. I don't know how rare a v6 mustang is, but it is unique. It looks like a fun project.
James Hall V6 Mustangs are not rare.
