Brother says he believes its a 2002.Its the 99-04 new edge mustang body style, not the 05 and up S197 body style.
02 is 265 hp, your gears are making up the diffrence, this is a drivers race me thinks

All he has is a CAI, and a SLP catback. The rest is bone stock. Pretty sure its the loud exhaust thats fueling his mouth and wiggerness.

well 5.0's are only like 230hp stock book numbers are wrong. your exhaust 65mm and KN is gonna put you right at 215rwhp (are you tuned?) while he is at like 230-235rwhp....but he has 3.27 or some **** like that you've got 3.73's, thats why im saying its a drivers race, you've got less power, but more gear...
regardless race him and find out

Should be an interesting race. Come of the line good, and the 4.6 will have a hard time regaining gound, if it can at all.

you're gonna have to buy an sct chip and have it dyno tuned since pre 96 cars and obd2 compatible. basically theres no plug to hook and a tuner to your ecu. but a dynotune was the best money i ever spent on my 95 gt. of course i had heads and a cam so saw way bigger gains then you will.
