Default Interesting Showdown Question

I have a Bullitt that I am kicking around putting a Ford Racing Blower (Whipple) @ 8-10 PSI.

My Neighbor has a 03 Terminator with 500+ RWHP. Doesn't know true numbers because it was spinning tires on Dyno

Neighbor across street has a Cammed Out 06 GTO that is modded to the max.



We were all outside talking shop and got to the question of who'd win a showdown. I personally would place that honor with the Termi.



But what do you guys think?

Termi for sure unless you build the motor and up the boost and lighten up your stang in the process.....the termi is the lightest of the 3. You would beat the GTO as I have taken many....not cammed out but modded heavily. My numbers are in my sig and thats with the heavy 20's and stock suspension and drivetrain. FRPP Whipple was made for the 3V motors (and the termi's etc) IMO and looks like it came from the factory that way!

there are many other factors and mods that are not stated here that might make the GTO win over the Whippled stang but I would put my money with the wins in this order......(just from what you have written)

1. Termi
2. Stang (FI)
3. GTO

that is about what I was thinking.

My car is the heaviest by far

The Termi has the best traction of all...and that outstanding HP


not quite sure about that GTO though. a good driver with a 6.0 will reap some Pawnage...especially with how quick those damn things rev up.



In some ways it sucks having them as neighbors. They are the reason I Supercharged my F-150...and eventually went back to a Mustang. Now I see them everyday and can't help but getting that "Low Man on the Totem Pole" feeling

GTO's heavier than you and it's also the longest out of those 3 cars.

I put my money on the Termie as well...

I wouldn't say that, the curb weight of a GTO is 3700-3800lbs

Edit: damn pascal beat me to it.
