Default Modded S197 GT vs Stock MazdaSpeed 6

With the mods listed below...and I stripped my car of everything but the dash and drivers seat. What will this race look like? I even pulled the center consel.
My buddy loves to talk trash.

Stock, those MS6's can run in the high 13s to low 14s I think.

In conclusion, in the quarter mile, there's no reason for you to lose this one.

My 13.8 was with really ****ty tires, and just the intake, 87 tune and LT's. I want to be 12.99 or better. I had an 06 V6 Mustang and he had a 06 V6 eclipse. he was running 13.3 and my best was a 14.4...I am looking forward to seeing him in my rearview tonight at the test n tune. Bradenton Motorsports park is always prepped very well too.

was your dyno test on just Intake + 87 tune? beacuse those are some pretty low numbers for LTs and Intake on a 93 tune. People were getting around(+ or - 5) 305rwhp and 325rwtq with those mods w/93 gas.


And I think you should take him.. if you dont then its driver error

what model does he have? i'm guessing the 3.0 manual? I'm trying to find hp/tq #s on those.. but its a 4 door 6 cyl that weighs about as much (maybe more) as your car does even with your weight savings.. and they are FWD FTL and is it the sedan or hatch? hmm looks like 280hp.. not bad.. but if it's like the camaro v6 even with 300hp not enough torque and doesn't put out nearly as much hp till high RPM right before shifts..

yes my dyno was with everything in my sig. I was very disapointed...again. I saw screw dynos, Ill just talk abut my ET's. When I get a dyno tune done can boast. At least then they look at everything for possible improvments.

No matter the year or style I'm sure you have this one.. but I was looking and the different model years also have different hp.. 2009 is a 3.7L 272hp or a 2.5L 170hp...
