Default Question about a Mustang?

[B]I hate asking this question but here it is?[/B]

LooK at the sig, as you can see I have some mods, and yes its a truck. There is a kid in high school that lives in the neighborhood that owns a 95 stang, 4.6 red white white stripes, with I know for a fact because this kid had his car worked on at my buddies garge a month ago with a cold air induction and some crappy loud sounding exhasut. This kid flys by my house all the time and I know soon where gonna line up. Before I dynoed 255 rwhp with a crappy superchip tuner now I have a Diablosport tuner and longtubes. My truck accelerates very low 6's usually 6.0-6.2 all day. I have never ran it at a track because the closest is in St Louis and thats 120 miles away. Would it be close or will I have to mod more. His car is also a automatic.

OK, just to inform you guys on the acceleration of the truck I killed a Stratus RT 2 days ago from a 60 roll all the way to 110 by 4-5 lengths. No big deal its just a Stratus, and also have killed a late 80's fox body stang with a 5.0 with the loud exhaust. BTW were I am from Mustangs are a dime a dozen.

ok, well a 95 GT still has the 302 (5.0) in it... and with a CAI/Exhaust and it being auto, its a low 15 second car or so. If you know its a 4.6... if its a 96-97 its still a mid 15 second car or so. I dont know what 0-60 is so i cant help ya on that part.

The 95 is a 5.0 not a 4.6, but either way they are both overwieght and underpowered.

95 Mustangs were 5.0s - not 4.6s. However, be it a 95 5.0 or a 96 4.6, if it is an Auto and mostly stock, it is likely a high 14 to mid 15 second car. With mods, all bets are off.

I don't understand your statement "My truck accelerates very low 6's usually 6.0-6.2 all day."

I know its a 4.6, I was just guessing on the year. I dont keep up on the stangs nor I dont know when they went from a 5.0 or a 4.6 sorry about the wrong year though it is a 4.6. And yes my truck accelerates 0-60 in 6.0-6.2 seconds.
