2005 Hemi magnum vs 04 Gt?

michaelsevilla · 07-30-2009, 10:45 AM

Ok so this **** talking co-worker of mine has been talking all this crap about how his dodge magnum is the big dog on campus. <--LOL

Well around lunch time. (Everytime) He does annoying burnouts and speed offs coming off the parking lot. Everyone eggs me to race him.

So I took off and made it to a redlight with him dead on my ass trying to do the lame-sauce flyby. Light turns green and I nail the gas and see him trying to pass me with him holding his on and slowly me pulling away at higher speeds I'd say about 50-60 from the way I was slowly pulling him.

So its been established I can take him on from a stop. But what about from a roll? He wants to take it to the highway? He has a stock magnum and it isn't an R/T, just says "hemi" on the side of it.

I have an 04 mustang GT with a few mods

BBK pulley
BBK testpipes
Diablo Tune
Royal purple oil an filter
K & N filter.

Do you guys think he can beat me? Both cars are auto.

Dont under estimate the r/t from a roll. They can move at high speeds because of their long gears and powerful hemi.
edit: if it has a hemi its an r/t unless he just has the badges.

Not under estimating them at all, but I'm curious can I beat him? Or do I need more mods?

I'm thinking about purchasing a CAI before the run as well

Its going to be really close at the higher speeds.....

Will I have the edge? I can probably get him to g o from a 40 roll, I'll also gut my trunk while I'm at it.

You'll probably loose up top, they make alot more hp than your car does

...It's not going to do too much better than the stock setup.

lol, gutting your trunk (unless you have tons of audio crap in there) won't be worth much.

+1, especially if the OP's car is an auto.

Yes both cars are , but I really think it's an earlier style magnum because it doesn't even say r/t. Don't those have Less hp?

If it has a HEMI, it should be an R/T. Still has at least 340hp.
