ohh sweet... thank goodnesss there is an answer for this craziness... now let me ask you... if i am planning to run juice on this stang... should i just wait untill then or should i just tell me to throw in the program and just run it for now w/o jucie... thanks for you help bro

You don't need juice to smash a TC with Dougs tune. Keep in mind on 75hp shot, you will want to put the stock tune on. At 100 shot, you will need a dyno tune and have the timing retarded.

i lost to a tc at the track, they are no joke!!!
at least his wasnt, 12 psi lol!!! (supercharged). like 240rwhp or somin. he was runnin 14.5's though, pretty sad for the power.

rygenstormlocke

LOL. SC'd and a 14.5, give me a break.

fazm

sc'ed, headers, exhaust, custom tune, new motor (he popped the first one)

rygenstormlocke

LOL. Man, I missed my calling, should have lead the TC charge.

thanks for the advice with NOS... i dont' have to worry bout my friend bustin out with a supercharger.. but dang... 240hp.. that's crazy... another question.. since i do have manual tranny.. i'm not all that experience with racing... so when would be my best shift points.. and why the heck does my shifter gets stuck trying to shift into 3rd.. like as if it doesn't want to shift ...

This came up last year, we will kill those cars!!!!!! They have no TQ and no power, what a joke. 147 HP AND 154 TQ to the wheels!!! WTF. And they are 3100lbs.

Yea my dad has one!!! I drove it. He has the aftermarket exhaust on it from the factory. Those things are pretty slow compared to my car and I drove a manual Scion TC too. lol You shold have nothing to worry about. Tell him hes only like 155 hP at the wheel stock meybe 169 170ish. Hell the ones that come naturally supercharged are abot 210 220 at the wheel!! If those have nitrous they can beat a GT. The guys who installes all my parts is was like " man I gotta do some stuff to my GT, I got beat by a Scion at the track the other night he says" Now I just figure SC'd one with nitrous meybe. I know a stock one is slow. sorry dad!!

I didn't even see Fazms postes its probobly the same dude. lol

I used to get that a lot, it seems it went away after dyno tune.
