How bad would a stage 2 get beaten by the new 5.0 2015 mustang?

If you are talking about the MK7 Stage2... its the other way round... loll
Also I heard that the last gen mustang GT is faster than the newest one... but still you will get beaten pretty bad....

I thought as much lol. I was driving my family to a mothers day bbq this past weekend in my MKVI and one drove past me on the highway.

It will be close depending on supporting mods and driver.

Stage 2? No chance guys. K04? Below 120mph we are pretty even, above that, the mustang pulls. Trust me, I've done lots of testing in the real world. I'm a professional. ;)

The new mustangs and SSs are fast. Dont expect to beat them with a stock turbo. If you do... they werent racing

Half car is a marginal victory. Weight reduction or an extra passenger in the stang could account for that. And at what speed? If we are talking K04 it starts running out breath eventually. Anything past 130 a stock stang should take it

I'm loving those new 5.0s! The problem is they're E-V-E-R-Y W-H-E-R-E!

So....How would a Stage 2 Mk7 do against a 2016 5.0? I'm guessing similar to a K04 MK6, which is at over 120MPH the 5.0 would start walking away as well? OR, would that new n' improved turbo supply the GTI enough WHP to keep up? :)

That begs the question, how would a Stage 2 Mk7 do against a 2016 5.0? I'm guessing similar to a K04 MK6, as over 120MPH the 5.0 would start walking away?

Funny enough, they seem to be neck and neck most of the way. Actually it looks like the MK7 has the edge below triple digits and wins outright in the second video.

^^ - Wow, that's impressive! and the MK7 does Look like it WAS pulling on the second run.

(BTW - didn't know Windows 10 RD could stream videos so well! I remote into my server a server to post on forums lol.)
