Talking Fellow 5.0 fans unite!!!

Hi,
I've had my '91 5.0 GT for about 5 years now and i've been quite happy with it. However I have a friend(kinda) that recently came into some money and bought an '06 corvette C6 and ever since then he has become the biggest COCKASS.... I guess my question is what do i need to do (to my car that is) to shut this chevy a-hole up? My car is as stock as they come... and it just turned 100,000 miles. the only things done to it is cold air induction and off road exaust. Right now i'm running a consistent 15.2 at the track on street tires. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Heads cam intake swap(HCI) + full suspension + gears + drag radials + a hit of nitrous and you'll get him.

auto or 5 spd mustang??? 15 sec is a long way from keeping up with a c-6, but you'll need it all , gears , exhaust , h.c.i, all bolt ons, suspension mods and then hope you can trap over at least 108-110 in the 1/4 mile

Dude you cant compare a bike to a car....not even close,do every bolt on you see and DO NOT forget about suspension. You can have a $hit ton of power and with stock suspension it will not get you any where. Look at my mods...ive beat a couple of them vettes. But if you get somebody that can drive good in one of them c6's....good luck. All the ones i raced were old guys that have so much money they dont know what to do with it, as well as not being able to drive a car.
