'12 3.7l v6 vs '11 Gti & bolted Fox
Got up with my brother this last Friday and went out looking to shoot the **** and maybe get some runs in.
While at the 'spot' hanging out, I see the GTI I ran a while back. He comes up asking about a local s2k he had just ran. When he was getting ready to leave, I asked if he was looking for another run, "Sure" with his big ****-eating grin. I knew then that he had done a little more work since we last ran, fortunately so had I.
So, we are making our way to the highway, and get in a mix of a couple NE's and a fox. The 2 NE's keep straight, the fox follows us onto the highway. The vw and fox line up and hit it, I blew by the fox, and started reeling in the VW.(I would have passed him had we kept in it a bit longer).
Me and the vdub line up several times. 40ish roll, he honks and we roll out! I instantly pull 3/4 car, bang 3rd and feel the assend kick a little while pulling another car, hit 4th and continue to pull out to 2.5-3 cars or so. This was pretty much the case for all the 2nd gear pulls. 1st gear wasn't much difference, because my traction issues negated any tq advantage I had. You can see the rear walking a little in the video. I think I managed to pull closer to 3 cars from the 1st gear hit.
Then me and the fox line up. I know the boy, he claims the mustang is stock, but he didn't know my brother already knows what it has done. We went from a low 2nd gear roll, and I put maybe close to 3 cars on him up to 120.
Mods: GTI-3in dp-back exhaust (de-catted with a resonator), "stage 2" cai, tune, 15psi
Foxbody-3.73s, Full boltons minus intake mani and MAF (stock, lol.....)
Heres a couple go-pro vids from a chase car behind us. Not the best, but you can see the pull I had on both cars. I wanted to put the gopro on my car but the guy had just got it and was about to pop its cherry, so I was cool riding solo knowing some kind of vid being taken.
