I bought a 2008 Mustang GT this past October. I made no mods to the engine at all. Problem is, is it me, or does this car feel weak at times? I never owed a V8 before, and my last car was a 260hp 2003 Honda Accord V6, and for some reason, the GT feels only slightly more powerful than the Accord. Turning off the traction control doesnt seem to help much. It IS an automatic, but when I punch it, it seems to rev high, but doesnt really go anywhere. I can't even smoke the tires.
