Default How would my car do against a 04 GTO?

Sup guys, one of my best friends is getting a 5.7 GTO tomorrow, and I'm wondering if we were to race who would win.

The mods are a K&N intake, it's a 6 speed.

Mine is a 1999 GT, and the mods are:
5-speed transmission
93 octane tune with SCT XCAL3 handheld
FRPP Aluminum Driveshaft
Professional Products Typhoon Intake Manifold, Upper Plenum, and Throttle Body
180* Thermostat
MAC Catback Exhaust System
3:73's

I'll be getting an X pipe before we race, if that'll make any difference.

I'm guessing it'll be close if you can drive. But without gears, and a full exhaust, i think he might get you...especially on the high end.

Should be fairly even

How much more does the GTO weigh?

ur mod list looks pretty but your missing the mods that make you go. You lose unless this guy cant drive AT ALL. That intake manifold is gonna take you out of the race before you even start.

I have 3:73's.

I'll add that to the OP.

Stock 1/4 mile of a gto is 13.8, a Mustang GT is 14.0. One of my friends has my same mods , but his is an auto, and ran a 13.6.

GTO weighs 3725#, and mine is 3242#. I weigh 220, ad he weighs 205. lol.

I definitley don't think I'll lose by two cars...

you belive everything you read online?

not to mention that intake with your mods is probably hurting more than helping.

well intake acctually helped me my mod list isnt all that different minus the gears of course and the light DS and i ran a 13.39 but like they say you still have to know how to drive. That intake gave me a solid tenth tho...on a hotter day. that may just be my luck though.
