Hahah always a good thing. They always get confused about how such a small motor makes that much power when I get into detail.

Not to get off of everyone else's off subject... subjects? But you can also tell the "cool" v6ers from the GTs or Cobras when they have the word MUSTANG written and stickered on their car in every available spot, assuming we'll miss the point that they are driving a mustang.

I think its hilarious when people bring up "YEAH BUT ITS STILL A MUSTANG". Yeah? A guy in a Festiva rolls up acting hardcore and looks over and says "WATUP", should I acknowledge their existence because "ITS A FOOOORD!!!"?

My only complaint against the sixxers is that Ford fitted them with some skinny *** wheels/tires from the factory. They just look like they don't belong on the car.

Funny comment about the stickers, I was just thinking I can tell V8 because they swap to loud mufflers and think they are race cars.

Ok go further..... now show us all the differences between the brakes like you said genius.

And just b/c I love seeing you butt hurt..... I'll take that bet, and watch you back down just like every other V8 owner on this forum who has challenged me to the same thing.

you said you'll detune to 440 hp and put up a months wages.
Pick a track half way, I'm in MN. PM me full specs on the car. I'll PM full specs on mine. Inspections a the track to make sure neither are running something they didn't claim. I want several pay subs showing your wages, and cash only.
Or was that just an internet tough guy thing to show off and you really didn't want to race nor expect me to step up?

HAHA. I hear ya. Everytime I pass a v6 with loudmouths or flows they like to stick their hand out the window and wave, big brother doesn't wave back. We aren't motorcycles, not everyone gets the same respect sometimes. HELL YEAH... ya'll race, video tape the inspections and paste that s*** up on youtube. Now we're talking about a good time!

I do remember saying that the brakes were different IF I REMEMBERED CORRECTLY, meaning I wasn't positive, but it's okay, you can be a douche about it. Lets not forget that V6's don't run an AC condenser from the factory, which is another thing that would be visible through the front bumper cover. SO unless We are talking about some M112'd v6 with a heat exchanger in the front, it would be something noticable if you took the time to look.

and cool, finally a race. but None of this in private ****, I want your humiliation to be public, so here's my spec's as of the moment. Remember, I'll be running a 440rwhp car that only weighs 3200lbs

Probably missing a couple things, as this is off the top of my head right after waking up
Engine -
4.6L block Bored .002" over, Forged Kellog Crankshaft, 298CID
Forged Mahle Rod's & Pistons, SCR 8.5:1
Patriot Performance Stage II heads/ Comp cams custom turbo cams (you can see my plans huh)
Titanium oversized valves, comp cams valve springs
MSD Ignition system, w FAST engine management system
Fluidyne radiator, with radiator mounting trimming to fit


Since I'm only running 440rwhp, I'm going to stick with the
FRPP high flow fuel rails, 60lb/hr injectors

Vortech T-trim
10PSI boost (440rwhp)
Tuned Water/Methanol injection W/ Knock sensor
FRPP high flow oil cooler


Viper Spec T-56
Mccleod twin disk clutch

IRS out of a 2001 Cobra - fully braced, upgraded spline axles, etc
Final Drive ratio of 3.55:1 Rear gear


Maximum Motorsports custom suspension - This one I'm not letting you in on
but I will tell you I'm running a 6pt cage at the moment

I'm also running No AC, only two speakers inside the car, No rear seat, No passenger seat, no noise deadening, no rear seat, no convertible top/motor, the car, with me in it, weighs 3214lbs at 1105ft above sea level

anyway, that's the basic idea of what's there, there's still alot missing I'm sure. you'll have to wait till track day to see my pay stubs, because I'd have to go to phoenix to get them, otherwise they just deposit into my acct.

and I clearly said that you pick the track, I don't want to give you any excuse when you lose your ***.

Haha, I will make the point HE said he would detune to 440 hp, I NEVER asked for it.




Hiding suspension stuff already? No deal then, you aren't the terms. (Nice way to set that up to make it look like I'm the one backing down. Congrats.)

By the way, your car out weighs mine by several hundred pounds, and if you run 440 hp, I'll have over 150 hp on you. Can't wait to see how this race goes.
