Modded Evo = demoralized by two yellow GTs
About 1:40 into the video:
http://videos.streetfire.net/video/2178cf43-2cac-4d47-b77b-9a2b0059149b.htm
My mods:
Full bolt on 324rwhp. 4.30 gear
Middle lane (05 Mustang GT, username="Caution" on MF.com):
Full bolt on as well, I believe 319rwhp. 4.10 gear
Left lane (Evo VIII):
Full Stage II
downpipe, upper pipe (?), turboback exhaust, intake, chip, boost controller, and some other little stuff, but still on the stock turbo.
I believe he said it had approximately 330awhp.
Cliffs:
3-honk at 30mph on the highway.
I pulled about half a car through 2nd, and a whole car in3rdon both other cars.
4th gear I just walked away, finishing about 2-3 cars ahead of the other GT and Evo.
The other GT and the Evo have a little back-and-forth action. The GT let off a little when I hit the brakes because of a HUGE dip in the road. Another angle of the video from behind shows a shower of sparks shoot out from his car!
Notes:
I didn't powershift.
I wish I could have run on my 17s, because they add a ton of seat-of-pants acceleration, and I'd like to see the improvement on a video.
The nitrous was disconnected. I haven't gotten the 125 wet shot tuned yet. Once I do, I challenge Mr Rogers to a race for Pinks (lunch at Pinks hot dog shack, that is [8D]).

As for your challenge, I love pinks..right there on La Brea. How nice of you to offer me free lunch.

I dam near wrecked when I hit the bump in the road (hit my brakes trying to avoid running into that EVO) -- I just started to pull a little too ... there is another angle from behind somewhere (daboss has it I think) where you can see all sparks flying from under my stang. I'll see if I can get it and have Matt edit the video[8D]!! Good times tonight!

RE: Modded Evo = demoralized by two yellow GTs
Good runs and good kill! I doubt that Evo is putting down 330whp though. I remember when I had that exact setup minus the chip (Evo's don't get chipped, just tuned), I put down 263whp. (Mustang Dyno). Maybe his #'s are from a high reading dynojet or he has one hell of a tuner.

Nvr, when I when to tune mine, there was a guy with an VIII that had only tbe and intake (plus mbc) and TTP dyno'd it to 280hp or so, then they tuned it and raised it up to 320 by the end of 3-4 dyno runs. Perhaps it is a high reading dyno jet, I know for a fact not all of them are the same.

I was thinking... "Did Caution just go ricer on me here? "
