well i will start with my story, my best friend just got a 2002 mustang GT with a cool air intake. Which is awsome i am happy for him. but he has always had to have one up on me... he got the car just because he had to have something faster even though he knows nothing about cars. well my question is what do you guys think i need to do so i can beat him. he won't add anything else to his car so i need to know what you guys think i can do to beat him. i have 18 inch rims, cool air intake, throtle body, headers, flowmasters, changed the dash lights , sway bars, and i know alot of that dosn't matter but anyways i was thinking maybe a diablo chip would maybe put me by him but i wanted to know what you guys think, i really wanted to lower my car so i can race in street cross more competivly buy i want him to shut the hell up! so i want to know if you guys think a chip would work and if not what you guys think i need to do to beat him.

 

you need a new friend mod.

I have no idea what your current stang is dude.... i assume its a pre 99 V6?

 

sorry its a 2001

 

its a v-6 2001

 

that GT has about 263hp

Iam guessing you have about 20hp out of your mods

so you should have 192+20 = 212hp []

your going to have a hard time matching him, Ermm there is a really good thread around here about a powerpack for the v6 lemme see if i can find that.

225 RWHP for a GT around 160-170 for a V-6, a TB wont do jack unless you port the intake, the headers probably dont do much either since you are so close to stock, so with the intake and exhaust you probably have an extra 10 HP at the most, get some 4.10 gears and a T-lok, a diablo or SCT tuner, and a shot of nitrous and you can take him

 

Nitrous FTW

 

Agreed !!! +10000000000000!!!! Put some Nitrous in that Bisch and dont tell him about it just surpirse him the look on his face will be priceless!!
