dude, common knowledge. not all of us stang guys are stupid you know. i was a chevy guy for over 10 years and owned 4 f-bodies before i bought my mustang.

not raggin on you, just seems to me you tend to stereotype all mustang owners.

 

99-04 Mustang GT's are slow in stock form hands down. They can be made fast, but when there is a car in their same class that beats them by a second or more and by 7-10MPH then I will classify them slow.

I ran into a GT one night with exhaust and I manged to put a car on him from 40-55MPH. That's just sad. There wasn't a Mustang built to hang with a 4th gen F-body until the Mach 1. The Cobra can be put in there if the guy in the Cobra can't drive, but with equal drivers then it's not even a race...the Cobra will win.

 

modular GT's were never made to keep up with F bodies. that's what cobras are for. the GT is just a decent entry level V8 sports car. they outsold the F body many times over, but it wouldnt have hurt for ford to bump up the power levels. they really didn't make the 96-04 GT's the way they should have.

 

The Mach1 is what the GT should have been. Power wise anyways.

 

I never saw jason's dyno but Ive seen his car and I highly doubt he only dynod at 235. His car was a 5spd and ive seen stockers almost hit that mark.
Regardless, 12.8 for what that car had was moving.
Why not?
I have less than 250 in my slow pos and hit mid 13's.
I think he said "mid-low" anyways.

 

stall converter and sticky tires has a lot to do with that.

you're right though, it isn't impossible, I was just thinking of a street type set up with a normal stall or 5 speed tranny and then running those mentioned times.

 

Jasons mods were h-pipe, mac exaust, 4.10's, skinny fats with bfg,s, cold air, tb, mas air, short throw, aluminum D/S and I think that was it.. I forgot he didnt dyno 230hp it was 243rwhp.. My old roomate Kungfuhampster dynoed 234rwhp.. Jason could drive his car.. I think in 03 he went through 4 trannies.. drag racing is how well you get off the line, How well you drive your car, and how much your car weighs..

 

His car was a 5 speed..

 

I am just sticking up for a fellow V6 owner.. But yeah it seems that mustang GT modular guys dont like to see V6's modded.. When my car was stock I never got that much slack from the LT1/LS1 crowd.. I got that V6 shit talking from the 96-04 GT mustang crowd.. Billy with the silver supercharged GT That runs 11's use to give me so much shit about having a V6.. Never use to give me any respect.. Now I make more power then his car and he doesnt talk shit on me no more.. will I run the same numbers as him?? Eventually but not this year.. I still need to get a tranny and a 12 bolt.. but Thats the thing I have noticed.. 4th gen F-body guys and girls realize I have a V6 and back then they still respected it for being a F-body.. Mustang guys and girls dont even consider V6 mustangs as a mustang.. Why is that?? They have a stock motor V6 mustang that runs 10's on v6power.net.. Stock motor.. What is the fastest stock motor 2valve out there??

 

Holy shit, someone write that down! Pure genius!
