Default How much to romp a stock '04 Mach 1?

Okay so my friend just bought an 04 mach 1 with 36k on it. To put it in perspective...hes 19 years old and drives an 02 BMW 325ci with only like 29k on it (Only child, well off parents...they bought it for him). He calls me tonight and says "I just got a new car." He tells me its a mach 1, I proceed to give the usual "god dammit **** you man youre so spolied but im happy for you I guess." deal

Basically...what will I need to walk over a stock 2004 Mach 1? Just to put him in his place

Right now I have...BBK Intake, BBK Short throw shifter and a H-pipe back exhaust.

i doubt he will walk on him but itll be a lot closer than now.

maybe you already got the intake. so a cam and heads would be good. bigger tb. and definatly gears and rear control arms. you'd probably hang right with him if not start walkin then.

they weigh f*ckin 3,450+ lbs...they're not that great in a line or around a curve, ive test drove two of em...and a 06 EVO. The'yre both slow as hell in a line, the EVO kicks *** in grip, but thats all its got going for it.
