Hellion's car is not turbocharged. He has lightened it up some and donesome othersmall mods, but you should have about 0 problem winning.
A bone stock SVO would be a really good run, would come down to driver skill.
only an svo would give you hell!!!

RE: a race?
Its not stock, cam, header, bigger jets in carb, gutted trunk, marine carpet with no fiber pad, K&N air filter, fan removed for electric fan, carb spacer, straight pipe, ported header, ported intake, ported exhaust valves, smog delete, A/C delete, emissions delete, EGR valve delete, 100amp alternater, drilled holes in the water pump pully to make it lighter and spin free at the crank, Mallory ignition coil, taylor plug wires, NGK spark plugs, choke delete on carb for more flow, and I have a roll bar on the way.
I am well over the stock HP mark.
And the turbo... well that was an idea to have a blow through carb set-up but have kicked that idea and I am gonna swap my motor out with an SVO, TC, Or Merkur motor... thats when I get enough money for the swap so I am not stuck with a non running vehicle that wont get me to and from work so i can make my money. You know what I mean, being stuck on a project cause you ran outta money
Well also, this sean kid has no 5.0 Mustang, check out all his threads he made in the 5.0 GD area for more detail. Unless he can prove his ****... he is a poser. Kinda like that one kid who claimed to have a Ford GT lmao. Good PWN!

And yeah merkur motors are beast, i have read up top to bottom on those motors, but I would like a SVO motor better though. But the XR4Ti's wiring is so much easier.

well of course there are always exceptions but im just saying, two fox body mustangs race, one with a n/a v8 and one with a n/a i4 im pretty sure the v8 will win pretty easily. plus in that example you are comparing an almost 10 year old car to a new one. im not saying a 4cyl car cant be faster, its just that about 95% of the time unless the 4cyl is turboed the v8 will win.
