What are my chances??

Ok I have smoked a couple Mustangs before dunno how many were 5.0s I am guessing a few were. I got an 85 gsl-se with a 13b and a kid from another town wants to run. He has a stang and claims it's mean as hell...all stangs I have raced b4 claimed the same thing but they wern't! He has venom 400 chip, stage 2 tranny, (claims it runs 80mph in 2nd gear and 190 toped) and cobra injectors.. Thats all he has..What are my chances against him??? iIt's a 95ish gt I think! I don't know 4 sure what year but it looks like a 95.. I'm runing pretty stock....maybe aftermarket wires and one cat bashed out..what do you guys think??

how many turbos? 8? You only need 1. Make sure that you have the supporting mods, or else you'll be toast, err, your motor will be. After you get more fuel, a tune, and a better radiator, you'll be good.

s-afc is a bandaid. Do you have a wideband? EGT gauge? Get yourself something like a PFC and commander and have it tuned. Also, just injectors = blown motor. Get yourself a pump and upgrade your lines/fpr.

94-95 Mustangs are really slow for Mustangs, but still faster then a stock FB.

I would hope you, but it is all about driving. Just go race him and see how you do.

You're toast.

Actually I don't have any idea. Race them and find out. That is the only way either one of you will find out.

I'm not sure how modded your SE is, but mine (which puts out much more that stock power, but not as much as a turbo) Will run just behind a STOCK mid-90's Mustang GT. If the guy can't drive, you can take him. However, it's not hard to make those cars put out much more power, and there's not much you can do without going to a road course instead of a drag strip.

Oh yeah...

12A 7 < Miata < GSLSE < Mustang
