It can deff. be done especially in a car garage. Depends on how hard you rev the engine but it also depends on the other car alarm's sensitivity. About 2 yrs ago when my dad got his alarm installed in the Explorer, it was very sensitive so sometimes when a tuned civic drove by the alarm would go off. He changed the sensitivity so now it goes off very rarely.

I know right. There's this one Toyota Yaris that I always set off. It's pointless for that particular car to have a car alarm anyway as it's not very expensive but it also has this feature where it has a warning that beeps four times and then stops and then it goes off so you have to hit it twice within a certain amount of time.

My Saleen exhaust easily sets it off.

Also to the original poster: my car is faster in all situations than most Ferrari's.

I don't see any serious power adders in your sig. Are you hiding something? Like something that actually has more power than a Ferrari?

Yeah the difference between handling between a normal mustang and a Saleen is like the difference between a GM Humvee and a Porsch 911, I've actually confirmed this with statistics so the Red Saleen has a lot of strength against anything in the corners, but even with 500 hp it comes close. I don't think a stock vert can take a f360 say with the <4.5 0-60 time vs the <5.2 to begin with in the straights.

What do you have under the hood buddy?

Haha, I did it today actually. I was leaving home depot and when I came back out I saw that a riced out Mitsubishi Lancer (non Evo) was parked next to me. When I started my car I heard it blip twice, then for ****ty and giggle I revved up once and it went off.

I'm running stock mufflers with a O/R X-pipe. It isn't that loud, I think his alarm was just really sensitive.

I can believe you possibly beating a M3 or a 360 Spyder. But as for the Lamborghini, you beat the driver. There is no way that you're going to beat even one of the older 580hp Murcielagos' with the mods in your sig.
