  • Of all the "sleeper" cars ever made, the SHO is my favorite. Come on, how does it feel to be beaten by a taurus?

  • sho just kicked in yo!!!

  • WHERE DID YOU GET THIS TURBO KIT?

  • Great vid. I have a gen 1 with the 3.2 upgrade. Pulls like a beast.

  • Loved my 1st generation sho!.......it is gone now..........but honestly, some times I do dream that I am driving it!!!........SHO rules!

  • @GenIIIV8SHO

    He did not purchase it this way, but as to the exact modification list I do not know. But I believe the stated WHP, as his car was faster than the Z06's I have ran.

  • you got a@@ raped by the vette, vette-1 ford POS-0, lol thats funny you thought you could take a vette, lol still funny.

  • @TheNuggetbuster Chill out fanboy

  • @TheNuggetbuster What are you talking about? The SHO beat the vette, the vette went ahead of the SHO after it started slowing down because it won...

  • Thanks for the video

  • This vedeo rawks!

  • there was a crystal method/chemical brothers cassette in my taurus's tape player when i bought it.. just thought i'd share that.

  • Great Vid, Great song!

    5*

  • fucking awesome shos man i wish i could find a supercharger or turbo kit

  • hey if you think that your piece of shit car o wait your probably nine sorry

  • everyone has different taste in cars asshole respect somebodies opinion if you want yours to be accepted dick

  • Not a FWD tranny you can't. New stock tranny's from ford are going to run you over 2 grand for sho's.

  • Nice vid...

    Cut the music for the action parts please next time, though. Rather hear just the engines screaming.

  • Yeah i wanna hear that SC scream! I'm very envious though, wish i had some know how working on the SHO and money for a SC =D

  • It is a turbocharger actually. I made a vid with the music at a lower level, but I have no idea if it is on the web.

  • Not a big fan of Ford, but I liked your video!

  • sho all day

  • i love my sho fuck all you haters prolly pissed cuz u've been raped by a sho

  • @pitbull43187 yeah i would like an sho, i hate all thos wanna be losers that put them down, tell them to go drive their ugly gm garbage, and get lost.

  • no taurus can ever beat a vette, no matter how much cash you dump in. the vette is set up to get right of the line w/ no loss of time & its aerodinamics would've really made a difference at your suppose highway speeds. please, the sho was forgotten as soon as GM re-debuted the SS impala. oh, and i would'nt call it a rice beater since your engine is a yamaha (japanese). get a mustang, cobra, or lightning then call yourself a rice beater.

  • I'm a GM fan, and I own an SHO. Your statement is incorrect as a stock SHO would run all over a C1 Corvette.

  • i guess you have a good sense of humor cause a C1 corvette was made back in 1953 & 54'. plus, that vette in the video wasn't even an LS6 it was an LS1, & the fake plaque on the intake had the wrong HP rating. but for laughs how about a SHO against an old 57' vette fuelie.

  • you just said "a Vette" so I expounded. I would rather have a vette anyday, but I do like both cars. Just so happens at 16, an SHO is what I could afford.

  • Wow, you do realize you look like douche? It looks like the vette was getting pulled by the taurus. Given enough money anything can be faster than a certain car. I am sure you can differentiate the looks between an ls1 and ls6 from that video. Hah. The plaque was probably custom made. 450 bhp = the 39x whp in the video.

  • yes i can tell that's not an LS6, it's simple, the LS6 was only equipped on the coupe Z06 not a hatchback, plus its not the correct intake manifold, the Z06 uses a larger rising manifold similar to the one offered by F.A.S.T., plus i rather drive a vette than seen in a taurus any day. plus, you can dump as much money u can into the SHO but there's only so much the motor can handle. remember what us true muscle car guys say "THERE'S NO REPLACEMENT FOR DISPLACEMENT".

  • You are possibly the most ignorant person in the world. Please stop hating on SHO's when you don't know anything about them.

    A 550whp SHO can rip apart a Z06 on the highway. Why? Because the car is geared more for high end performance, which is why a stock SHO can keep up with a new M3 at 60+ rolls.

    Trust me dude, the V6 yamaha is more than capable of making 1000whp, it is just the fact that the car is FWD which holds it back. get a clue.

  • 550 hp wow! please the new ZR-1 does 600hp stock. plus whenever road & track magazine did an article on the fastest top speed cars in the U.S. i never saw a SHO in the article. last time i checked the 5.0 was the favorite high speed pursuit vehicle favored by law enforcement. oh yeah, you idiot its not the taurus whose geared for top speed its the ZO6 with a 3.42 ratio. unlike the SHO's 3.77 & 3.98 ratios.

  • I had a Car and Driver magazine when the first SHO's came out. There was 100 cars competing on a 100 mile endurance race at 100+ MPH. All of the exotic European cars broke down or overheated. The stock SHO came in 3rd place! I rememember that article vividly, because it was surpsising. But that car kicked ass. It's average speed was 130MPH. Maybe someone could find that old article? It was published before most of these wanna be Ricer's were even born!

  • Yeah. The SHO was built on a motorcycle platform. Ran into a WWU mechanical physics professor who'd the engine installed into the Viking 7 (VII). It gets 50mpg and goes 0-60 in 5.3 seconds. Don't ask him how the engine came to be. You'll get an hour long lecture.

  • I've seen a few in the junk yards and a few when I was younger in a shop. The intake manifold is a work of art in itself!

  • No taurus can ever beat a vette? Really? There is a 700whp SHO in my area that shits all over modded Z06's every day.

    SS impalas are fucking boats. I used to have a Caprice 9C1 (same fucking thing) and it could not haul nearly as much ass as the SHO could. Also SS impalas are large cars, SHO's are medium sized sedans with 1000lbs less meat on them and enough HP to run away from an Impala.

  • i like your car i am thinking about fixing up my sho but i am doing my eclipse first you should check out my video let me know what you think all i have right now is a 80mm mass air flow and cold air intake more to come soon though but yea nice ride

  • this guy with the sho taures saying hes gonna eat some imports?

    so your saying your gonna eat my supra?

    that has 983 rwhp?

    is that what your saying?

    we should totally race sometime

    i wouldnt be dogging on you if you had a cobra or a mustang

    thats a real car

    taures? dont make me fucking laugh

  • 983!!! index those plugs i want to see 984!!!

  • No, I doubt he can eat your imaginary Supra. I'm betting he can beat your Eclipse though. Is that why you are hating?

  • dont forget to twist your distributor.. you'll get another 50 RWHP

    Or do you not have a Supra at all? Is that what you are saying?

    Don't make US laugh because you probably have never set foot in an SHO.

  • Of course he doesn't have a Supra. OR a Eclipse. He just has a video of someone ELSE's Eclipse. A V6 with FAKE dual exhaust! Got to love RICE! And in MY book, RICE don't equal Jap, it equals FAKE fast and the furious graphics, spoilers, and fart cans on stock cars! "Dual Exhaust" on a Eclipse. WTF?

  • ???

  • Sorry. It was a reply to k1attackh22 from a few pages ago about his 900+ HP Supra. But it posted here instead.

  • "i wouldnt be dogging on you if you had a cobra or a mustang

    thats a real car

    taures? dont make me fucking laugh"

    That's what we love about people like you. You think a SHO is slow. Every person who has ridden in my SHO (89 5-speed) has said the same exact thing when I do a 0-60 pull...."Holy fucking shit, I did not expect that".

    This is why the SHO can regularly beat Mustangs in a race.

  • please, id like to see someone out here in the L.A. area hit me up to with their SHO to do a 0-60 challenge against my SVT Cobra, we can do it at irwindale so i can put that on you tube. remember a SVT Cobra is still a mustang!

  • This is true. But who owns the 700whp SHO? I know TexanTony personally, but he's not even @ 700whp. To my knowledge, he's the fastest SHO on the road. But with all of the new stuff that's been going on lately, there's no telling. Someone even made a 5-speed gen III...

  • There is a guy in Jersey with a 700whp SHO. Everything is worked including the tranny. He spent over 10k on the tranny alone just so it wouldn't shatter gears and break transaxles.

  • I have an 89 SHO, and even with a going valve cover gasket and oil dripping in the spark plug wells - to be repaired this weekend, I still eat all your little imports as a joke.

  • You're still running a nice little Yamaha V6 inside that Ford body. But that just makes it better in my opinion. I really can't think of a better sleeper.

  • hey just to get a few things straight your talking about imports

    i think you should rephrase that as ricers

    cuz i have a supra

    and thats an import but i dont think you would eat it no offense

    i have 983 rwhp when i dyoned last in january

  • that silver SHO with the white hood looks like ass!!

    ;)

  • Don't be so hard on yourself Murph! BTW, I am trying to respond to 'shomurph', but all my responses seem to get posted at the top. Hmm.

  • I would have really liked to see those guys race from a dead stop...but I do see why they are racing from a roll because the SHO's don't really get up and go until they are around 3500-4000 RPMs. I have an '89 SHO and that thing is a complete dog up until around 4,000 and then it screams.

  • no shos have a set of secondary valves that kick in at 4k once the open the compression ratio changes and it really opens up i had a 90 five speed and it was a beast its a high reving engine and 2nd gear redline around 60 if i recal and 3rd around 95 and ive run mine up to about 140 with few mods mostly just a chip mod and some good gas

  • So you are saying that SHO's only get up to 4000 rpms, that sucks my phlymouth breeze gets 6000 rpms

  • Your plymouth breeze is also a 4 cylinder. DRRR

  • Shos get up to 6500 or 7000 rpm.

  • so basically the only argument i see on this site is "its a taurus give up" like no its not a taurus its a taurus to a rice burner who pills next to us and thinks "look at this junkie car" and when 4000 rpms hit and or they get smoked off the line there like what a loser you hook up a taurus. either way SHO is faster then junkie jappssss

  • people that dont own one just down understand its not about how much the car is worth its just so sexy when your dirve the worlds best sleeper

  • How did you win the third race, he wasted your fuckin ass

  • Say what? What video are you watching? As soon as he shifted to 4th I gained back any ground I lost (he started in 2nd to my 3rd, so he pulled initially). Unless you are a moron and think that was him pulling away when I got on the brakes.

  • Say what? What video are you watching? As soon as he shifted to 4th I gained back any ground I lost (he started in 2nd to my 3rd, so he pulled initially). Unless you are a moron and think that was him pulling away when I got on the brakes.

  • I shit faster than your car goes

  • Quit letting people put things in your can and that problem you have will clear up.

  • turn the stupid song off

  • Whats the name of the song?

  • It's called High Roller by The Crystal Method.

  • I wanted a Taurus SHO in the worst way; if they were still made, I would still want one... Their unassuming looks won me over.

  • SHO for life

  • hmmm I smell a lot of bs about this..didnt even look like the Vette knew he was supposed to be racing lmao

  • That is why the Vette passenger (my good friend) was filming and why we went on his count? The only bs here is your username.

  • hey, in a "race" aren't you suppsoed to see acceleration and go fast...?

  • Most races were from around 60-140.

  • You can clearly see the speedometer of the SHO in the Chorvette race accelerating to at least 130MPH.

  • those are some nasty sho's i am interested in supercharging my 91' can you get back to me with info.

  • come to shoforum dot com, I am Toolman on there. BTW, turbo SHO's IMO are way better than the S/C route. And I would be happy to turbo your SHO. Taking orders now.

  • im sorry but those taurases are ugly

  • Yeah, and the dodge magnums are good looking?

  • That's the idea, you pull up to someone, they see what they think is a piece of shit, then you kick their ass!

    Well, at least, that's how I view it anyways...

  • Anyone got a vid or info on a SHO ranger swap?

  • Flip the intake, use a Ford Aerostar 5 spd bellhousing, 94-95 Mustang GT T5 tranny, and of course the SHO wiring harness.

  • I had an almost stock, SHO 1990 in Sweden. I won 1st prize in our local dragrace with it. 10,44@201m (1/8mile) on 17" wheels and custom exhaust + racing Clutch from SHOShop.

    I loved it, but it broke down a couple of times though... Overheated and started sounding bad. Would have been nice with a fresh engine and a supercharger =)

  • that corvette blew your doors off at the end. I dont see how you won that.

  • The SHO let off as soon as he nosed over the Corvette.

  • He stopped accelerating...The race ended.

  • sho sux motor easly breaks down peice of shit car i used to have one now i got 03 eclipse gts

  • The Yamaha in the SHO in much more capable than your Eclipse, sorry to break it to ya. Watch the net soon for some more videos, as the new version of the turbo SHO is up and running.

  • The eclipse is no longer a sports car. without the turbo engine it is just a 2 door galant. Chicks drive cars like yours.

  • i have a 99 sho in great condition with only 50k on it but i don't think it is that fast..the automatic definitely doesn't help

  • I have a 97_SHO and a 92_MTX SHO. No, your SHO doesn't feel near as fast as a Gen I or Gen II (all the pre-96 SHOs). You need to reprogram your tranny and your engine. Change out the exhaust and then it will feel as fast as a Gen I/II SHO

  • I had an 89 for a little while.  I didn't do anything to it really, but it would surprise almost anyone around here.

  • I've the same. No one ever expects it and I've had 9 years of schoolin people with mine.

  • Thanks for this video I love watching it. Awesome cars...

  • the coolest thing about the sho is that a lot of people don't know what they are. they're a 220 horse grocery getter. my brother-in-law had a 93. you should have seen the look on the guy's face in the 5.0 mustang when he got his ass whooped by what looks like a normal family sedan.

  • I love doing stuff like that in my SHO, no one expects it

  • For sure. The Mustang guys take it really hard having their ass handed to them by another Ford. It's espeically bad if they call themselves a Ford guy.

  • dude i had a beater tempo a 94 with a little fourbanger in it. i miss that car lol i blew the auto tranny from shifting it lol!! but oh my what fun. i need to look into an SHO for sure lol!!

  • SHOs are so much fun, I love my Gen I

  • funny how over 10 years difference still all thats needed is S/C and T/C to beat the 5.4's S/C engine

  • ...need to change my underwear.

  • SHO's kick so much ass. The biggest sleeper on the road. Period.

  • you guys are gay with your FWD cars. they shouldnt be called SHO. it should be SLO!

  • damn i have a 70 stang and a 99 sho w 400 hp maybe fwd but it is a fast mother fucker and u dont see to many around still v8

  • I always find it funny how some guys just seem to throw "gay" out of left field when they're trying to insult someone lol I got a feeling that SHO could spank your 66 stang if you indeed have one :P

  • Boy, what a Hater. No respect for the game. Just more, narrowminded American "Tunnel Vision". That's useful AND original!

  • Man oh man i need a job, nice runs i definitely would like to know some 1/4 mile times

  • 13.1 at 120mph

  • Wow! I have a 93 ATX, 15.4 was my best time with High Flow y-pipe. You and your SHO buddies are driving some nicely modded cars, maybe someday when i bring in some money and some know how i'll drive a car like yours.

    Well thanks for the videos, keep em coming

  • Yeah I think this is one of the most overlooked performance sedans I'm not a Ford guy but I gotta respect the SHO! YAMAHA POWER

  • This video seperates "Car People" from idiot asses that can just repeat information they heard. The bottom line is just about any vehicle can be modified to go fast. The SHO cars in all their respective forms are serious platforms, PERIOD!

  • I am so damned tired of trying to tell people what these cars actually are. I have just given up on the explanations. Funny how the same doubters never want to race.

  • EXCELLENT, FABULOUS!!!

  • I had a 1989 and a 95, both were 5 speed, though the 89 was a touch faster, i guess cause of less weight. They were awesome, and I surprised a lot of kids in TSi's and a couple of GTA Trans Ams

  • SHO...top of the line taurus!!!

  • wow that was fucking awesome

  • I love these damned cars.  It's too bad that the cars seem to fall apart from underneath you while the engine stays strong. I have two. :)

  • i hear you, man

  • My cruise has never worked in the 9 years I've had the car. Oh well, you don't need it to go fast.

  • It's still a Ford Taurus.

  • It's a SHO, u wouldnt understand it!!

  • You have more than 450 hp on a taurus????!!!!

  • It's not just a taurus, it's an SHO. Completely different.

    www.shoclub.com

  • yeah the only thing it has in common with a taurus is the body, which is modified
