I raced a guy with an RSX type S he had intake and exhaust, we were on the freeway, he REFUSED to do any quarter mile or stoped raced with me. we did a 60 drop to 120, I GOT MURDERED! my car was stock at the time but it wast even much of a race, sad to say i still want to quarter mile him cause i know i could take him.

makes sense seeing as how the 05 6ers are governed to 113. any one know what the true top speed is of theirs?

Invest in an XCal2 or other tuner, it eliminates the 113 MPH thing. I had my otherwise stock V6 to 120 on a deserted back road, and may have gone a bit faster but I shutdown when I saw an oncoming vehicle.

It wont void the warrenty, only if they can prove it was related to the mod. As long as you stick with a tune that comes with the tuner or from a professional you should be fine. You can put it back to stock before you take it in. As for the CAI, my dealer knows I have one. He knows about my entire car actually.

word has it that if you leave your battery unplugged for a couple hours, the car will go back to the orignial tune, and if somebody checks it, they will not see that anything has been done to it

Dont try to hide the fact that you didnt want to race new car smell

You know you just want to hit that pedal and kill someone elses car.

I was test driving a V6 and a GT at this Ford Innovation Center by the race track near my house. The one in Homestead that nascar was just in.

The v6 and the GT are amazing. Although for a v6 when I drove it I thought for a smaller engine this was awesome. Im definitely going to invest on a v6, and if all doesnt go as planned i'll try for the 04 or anywhere above the 00'+
