Beating on your your nice new fiveOh with spray just to win a race against a ugly GTO.....IMO......not worth it. There is always gonna be somebody faster, who cares.

Whats the part number and details on the magnaflow for sale?

Look into a turbo or supercharger kit. Supercharged are a lot more popular than turbo for mustangs, but there's a few recent threads in this forum of twin turbos with drag radials running low tens on stock motor. Really good power. But more difficult install than a blower.
You'd probably want to build your motor up because the 5.0 is supposed to be good up to 600whp (IIRC) or torque before it goes kaboom

This...Eventhough N20 is cheap and a kick a** in the pants upgrade if it were me I would most def looking into a S/C for your car. I would just race him tho.. Guage his pull on you and then you can guestimate what would be needed to beat him. GL!!

Yep supercharger, forged internals, LTs, Sticky Mickeys, and cams will have you bending him over pretty quickly.
