#1151, "What would I need to beat a V6 Mustang??"


          

I just recently got a house, and right down the road is the Phenix Drag Strip. We a buddy of mine have a 2001 V6 Mustang stock and I know they are around 200 hp, but they should be heavy. If I run against him would it be close and what else would I need to beat him?

Well, from experience, you will need a 5 speed, a CAI, some exhaust mod, and an underdrive pulley. I think that will do it. I had an automatic, and it just can't be made fast for a reasonable amount of money. My automatic blew up, conveniently enough, and I did a swap. Night and day difference!

The new V6 mustangs have enough power to make it a challenge to race them. But, I don't think I've seen a new V6 at the drag strip. People just don't race them very much I guess. The pre 98 V6 models are no problem though

wouldn't my car be faster with a 50 shot nitrous setup instead of going with the 5spd tranny swap?

That's a good question

I can't be sure, but I'd say an AT with a 50 shot would be faster than MT for the same mods

yeah, but where's the fun in Nitrous.
Also I found that the best way to take a 2001 V6 mustang is to go through a wicked curve. their heavy and will kinda take the turn wider.
Although it also helped that my buddy had a girl in his car, and my passenger was used to watching his freinds back home race.

new engine, I think I'm just going to leave it stock now.
