Quick Question.
 
Sorry to post this because i know you guys hate when people do this and i think ive already asked but i cant find where. This kid with an 02 mustang gt with only flowmasters just called me and said he wants to race for a hundo. I only want to do it if i am confident i will win. I have dp, intakes, pulley kit, 8lb flywheel and an rx7store tuned pfc. I dont really know what those cars run so im not sure of the outcome. I do have a boost problem on my pfc it usually only goes to .55 bar or w/e. Also any idea what mph roll i should go for. Once again sorry for not actually posting a kill, but after i race him i will post it and mayb a video.

I personally wouldn't be taking any chances if my car wasn't boosting properly,but maybe that's just me?

Just got done racing, late for work so im keeping it short. Got him by about 3 car lengths from a stop. My pfc read 8,000rpm and .55 bar :(. ill have a video up either later tonight or tommorow. Also raced a new modded eclipse gt he claimed he had 300tq to the wheels beat him by 5 car lengths.

I know a kid (totally a prick, by the way. Thinks his car is unstoppable) who has an '02 Mustang GT with full exhaust (headers, h-pipe, "catback"), intake, chip, upgraded posi differential and drag radials who can't break mid 13s on race gas with advanced timing.

He's not that bad of a driver either. The point is, unless it's blown, it's going to be beatable if you're lightly modded and a competent driver.

Don't you love how Mitsubishi's ad campaign for the new Eclipse with the MIVEC V6 showed the FD "cowering" as it pulled up? LOL!

Good kills. :)

i would be careful running with a hurt car.... but you should still beat him pretty well if it isn't that modded... 2v 4.6's suck.

with your mods the mustang outcome dosent duprise me. but why race a new eclipse? they are slow as hell! about your car having boost problems "STOP RACING!" trust me on this a little bit of patience is ALOT cheaper than a new motor.

The eclipse actually beat the mustang from a roll. Im not sure what he has done to it but he said it has 300tq to the wheels whether thats a lie or not lol.

I know its not smart to race on a hurt motor. I have the money for a new engine and its just a matter of time before this engine goes.. its at 80k.

normal mustang GTs are nothing fast at all.
