Default got owned by Paxton blown SN95 GT

dude kicked my ***, enough said. i was wondering how much power this guy was pushing. he would not tell me. it had midlength headers, catted x-pipe, and slp loudmouth exhaust. he said the blower was pushing 10 PSI. i thought it would be an easy kill, i was wrong.

Just an Exhaust? And a blower?
I saw around 320 RWHP?
Dunno, I suck at guessing.

10psi on a 99+ is about an extra 160 Hp. So you figure 225 hp + 160 and you have 385hp unless he has other mods... which he probably did. I cant wait to get a blower for mine!!! Just kinda worried im gonna hurt my baby. [&o]

S/C at 9 psi with full bolt-ons is usually good for around 400 rwhp/rwtq on a 99+

still debating if I'm going to go with that route or just use that cash towards a 03/04 cobra

I'm still wondering why you're surprised that a blown GT beat up on your sixer? It looks like you've got some mods to be running a 14.0, but that guy is probably running almost 400 HP. What did you expect? An easy kill?

You can hang out of the hole, and for about the first 300 feet, but then horsepower just takes over. I know...It's sad.

i'm not suprised i lost. i didn't know it was blown until after i took off. when i heard the blower i was like 'oh ****, it's over.' i did beat him off the line by about two car lengths. and it was a 96-98, i saw it's taillights pretty good, vertical not horizontal. before i heard the blower i was thinking 'easy kill' then i gt owned.
