All Miami V8 powered falcons including the FPV Gt's, GtPs, gtfs, fgx xr8, sprints etc all have the overboost function. This one goes from 335 kw to 380kw on overboost which is huge and explains why it feels so much quicker than the stang

@danieljones7843 Жыл бұрын
“Transient overboost” as ford called it. The FG X XR8 sprint’s transient overboost reaches 400 kw while the GT F reaches 410kw-420kw depending on what source you get it from. That being said, ford’s engines are hand built and ford’s power claims have always been lower than actual power output 99% of the time. The most classic example of ford and fpv’s under claiming their power figures (and Holden and HSV over claiming theirs) is the GT F vs GTS dyno test that wheels did. The GTS was supposed to monster the GT F but the GT F ended up humiliating the GTS.

My mum took me to a Ford dealership back in around 2008 - 2009 I think while she was buying a Focus. They had a GT there and I immediately fell in love I would have been around 11 or 12 years old. The sales guy could tell I loved the GT and went out of his way to move a bunch of other cars to take me for a drive in it knowing full well we weren't buying it. One of my fondest memories it was comfortable and powerful, and he revved the guts out of it at every red light I had the biggest smile on my face. I hope one day I can own one.

Had the XR8 BOSS in a BA and the last XR8 SC 5.0 (unfortunately the auto as couldn't find a new manual) and it was chalk and cheese. Brilliantly matched with the SC. I was also considering a Mustang at the time but it was a minimum 6 month wait for a new one. If there was no wait, I probably would have bought the Mustang - because it's a Mustang!

Great comparison and yes all aspirated Aussie FPVs have overboost. I have an FPV and I am truly at a loss about every motoring journalist saying the seating and steering wheel position are an issue, however it must be because everyone says it. My FPV is perfect with all its faults😄! Mine is a Fg Viper coloured Super Purstuit ute with auto art wheels ( simmons) 14.5 inch rears with 355 pzeros enormous deep off set to the outside and 9inch fronts colour coded to the car. Trutrak with heavy duty shortened 28 spline axles and over size bearing. Huge flared rear arches. Herrod suspension herrod tune herrod exhaust, Herron cold air induction and Ford Racing Cams from the states, shaker. It looks nuts, it drives nuts and every where I go people love it. It looks really tough. The next thing I will do is flare the front (+30mm) to change the outers on the 3 peice wheels to run 10.5 inch 285 x 30 front which will include a hugely time consuming job of flaring the front bar to match the guards. That will be my 6 month part time job. Then high stall and shift kit and maybe a yellow terra supercharger with around 530 killerwasps and that is it. Maybe pull the plastic tub liner out and aluminium line it....let's see. Thank you Ross. It certainly is a pity that Ford just didn't evolve the dash board on all the falcons from 2009. The Fg is still a gorgeous looking vehicle but the dash is in my case 12 years behind the style of the vehicle. I say because my ute looks as good or better than any current vehicle on the road but then there is the 2009 dash.
@RossReviewsau3 жыл бұрын

The FPV GT is exactly that, a grand tourer. Its about eating miles, bags of torque, carrying 5 people, plenty of luggage space and even achieving decent fuel figures. They aren’t about track days or stupid gadgets. The engine is superb especially given it’s forced induction. Unfortunately fords lack of investment in the Falcon made its later years, especially in the FGX era, impossible for it to be competitive. I actually really like a higher seating position personally. Love the mustangs colour and modern interior, what I have never like about the mustang is the stupidly long bonnet length. Outside of that though it’s a great looking car with a fantastic engine. Great review as always mate.

In respect to the long bonnet, that has been part of the Mustang style since day one. In comparison of the big 3 in USA, both the Camero and the Challenger are larger cars. To me, it is a great comparison as into the actual size of the Falcon. Ford USA should have picked up and carried on production of the Falcon. Keep the legend going.

@@RossReviewsau yeah its a shame the supercharger is crap in the falcon gt and a mustang whith a 5.0 can whip it to 100 lol GT falcon is fords most expensive car when new, maybe same year GT falcon vs 2017 GT500 and yeah the kw/power is never going to be close but they're more compatible

ROSS..... Overboost doesn't work like that. Overboost works when the car is in the right temp range.... it will normally ALWAYS be in Overboost mode. So unless the car has just been started or it's running really hot......Overboost is ON! 😉

Good video but having had Falcon's for decades there's no way I'd go back now They are pretty much a one trick pony Much prefer a supercharged Mustang They are better in every way as you'd expect from a modern car

I'm sad we didn't get the timeline where the Falcon came to America and the SS was cut short. Honestly if Pontiac stayed and we got the stuff they cooked up at Holden that would have been awesome, especially if we got the Ute.

This would be different if we got the Shelby 350 350R the Shelby GT500. But we get nothing and if we do its $100 grand over what the Americans get. Case being the ZL1 Camaro the Silverado. 180 Grand + With the FPV for its time being the Top of the falcon range. The GT mustang over in the states is like the Holden Base SS to the HSV GTS...The GTS being the GT500. Great video

A bit of an apples and oranges comparo. One is a sports car from the outset while the other is a sporty tourer. I personally prefer the Mustang inside and out. Very purposeful looks and interior is a fun and pleasant place to be. Colour certainly kicks the Falcon's arse. A bit unfair putting the Mustang against a forced induction car (yet it still beat it). Yep,I'll take the import thanks. Don't forget the Falcon has only held it's value nominally, not in real terms. It'll probably go north from there though.
@RossReviewsau3 жыл бұрын
you right its a bit of a random comparison but its cool to see the outgoing FPV (besides the GTF) vs the incoming Mustang.. The mustangs are a really nice drivers car will give them that..

There's a big difference between a muscle car and a sportscar, the Falcon was always muscle, lots of torque pushing lots of weight, it feels like it's moving the earth when you shove it. The Mustang was a sportscar, it was Fords answer to Porsche, people forget that it was built as a small, light, european type sportscar.
@RossReviewsau2 жыл бұрын
agree the falcon sticks to the old muscle car formula take a family car n give it a wack load of power ;)
