2000 V6 Stang vs 1996 Eclipse GSX
Ok here it is I might have a race coming up. I have pretty many mods done, I would say around 240HP or so in my car, im not sure on the torque prolly around the same. His eclipse as I know of has rims, and 3inch exhaust. Its a stock turbo to. So who you think would win this one. They are both stick.

if he has a boost controler you will lose DOD. the stock turbo on the second gen is small. if he has a 95+ you may get him. before 95...lookout.

I no something to that when he put in the 1st gen motor his car ran slow then it did before at the track. Alot of people say its not that fast like high 14s, some say it is fast. I duno what the outcome will be, might be close.

oh. the first gen motor was more beefy, and the second gen head has better flow. he has the ultimate dsm setup. the question is "does he have a front mount intercooler? if a DSM guy (not just an owner, but someone who knows them) has a 1st gen swap and a FMIC, they are in the 12's easy. i dont bother those ones...well, now i can.

It depends if you race from a roll or a dig. GSX+AWD=holeshot, also is his car automatic or 5 speed. i think if its automatic and you run him from a roll you might have a chance if you use your cheater spray. also 1st gen eclipse gsx 190hp. 2nd gen 210. it would help to know what your list of mods
