Default 3.8>4.6

Ok finally ran into a GT on 64 today. Was driving to go Go-Karting tonight and had 2 other people in my car. I saw a yellow 00-04 mustang GT when I was merging onto 64. So I catch up to him doing a little over the speed limit. When I get beside him he get's into a merging lane, so I think to myself that he isen't going to race. So I sit back into my sleep and then all of a sudden we here the guy down shift and nail the gas. By the time I reacted his rear bumper was at my front bumper. After I nail the gas I have to merge in behind him to pass a car and I catch his rear and was on my way on passing him before a car pulled infront of us and we had to slow down. I get beside the guy after I pass the car and purge my nitrous so he could hear it and then we both gave each other the thumbs up. And by the way he only had himself in the car.

Not saying the 3.8 is greater than the 4.6 here but a 100 shot can definetly beat a non-modded GT. I have been waiting for my chance since getting the bottle installed.

Where would anyone get that idea from? Could it be the "3.8>4.6" header you posted for this thread.

Well there shouldn't be any....I admit the 4.6 is better than the 3.8. But I am saying that the 3.8 sprayed can beat stock or very slightly modded GTs.

There is no need to start an argument over this!

Sprayed 3.8 vs Sprayed 4.6

Why bash a thread I started that poses no threat to any person on here. Either way, this wasn't some "better than all of you thread" but a thread jokingly poking fun at all of the V8 guys that call V6 'stangs anything other than Mustangs.

Either way, the fact stands: my lightly modded 3.8 crushed a 4.6 wil a few mods as well.... nitrous or not, the "V8 guys" hate hearing that the bastard child just kicked their car's *** with a $600 mod.


...kicked!




....FAR!!!



ps... do you own a civic? That would actually be funny.

Stock, the 3.8s have ***** IMO. even in the FWD Windstar minivans... in that aspect I love driving my work truck. I surprise a lot of people downtown sometimes.
