They can't be that fast just because my friends eclipse GST will pull on a new GT.

unless your friends GST eclispe is highly modded then the GT's he raced, weren't racing. a GST is about on par with a stock 5.0

super 16g, FMIC, larger maf, SAFC, 3" exhaust, about 15psi. It's badass.

They have been getting bone stock v6's autos and sticks into high 14's at the track. Up against a high milage fox body they may give you a run for your money. We put dual exhaust on one from manifolds backat work and the customer claimed it was a whole night and day difference. They may respond well to mods compared to 3.8 stangs.
