Default Friend really stepped it up and now..

What's up gentelmen? Well here's the question of the day. A friend of mine had a 02 New Edge 6er. It was a pretty nice car. It had rims, dual exhuast, dropped etc etc. On the 23rd of Dec he gives me a call. Said that he had something to show me. About a hour later he comes by the house and lo and behold he's driving a 11 GT (manual). Man this car was nice. He ordered a CAI for it and asked me if I would run him, once from a 20 mph and at a standstill. I installed the KB BAP about a month ago and will be getting redynoed in about 2 wks. Looking for much better numbers this time. Crappy fuel pump couldn't support the added power, so I'm looking to get 400 plus when I get redynoed. Win lose or draw, the race is gonna happen and I'll make sure we put it on video. So what do guys think? Does the 4.6 stand a chance against the 5.0? Thxs guys.

have some decent tires on the car, and I would say you have it in the bag.

horsepower number's from a dyno are not everything.......

I definitely think a cammed T trim new edge would edge out a stock 5.0....definitely!

You with a retune and him with a cai and maybe a tune I think it'll be a drivers race to who ever can get traction first (I don't know what tires your running Soldier) Regardless that will be a race I wanna see!!
