Default Mustang GT

I was challenged by a friends friend of mine and he has a 06 mustang GT. It's stock pretty much except for exhaust. Do I have a chance?

Motortrnd is showing 5.2 0-60 and 14.2 1/4 for the auto /d 4.9 and 13.9 with the manual. From what I hear those things do great with even the smallest of mods.

You'll get rapped. Sorry

Those cars put down about 275@the wheels stock. My buddys car ran 13.6@103.5
He added the Ford Power pack and dropped into the 13.2@106

DO IT!!!! You never know, he might be a terrible driver with a stick! You never know. I have raced plenty of ls1 f-bodies and won due to the terrible driver mod. You just have to make the perfect run. oh, p.s. shoot a video and post it!

Do it for fun! If he beats you, make fun of his "high-performance" car barely beating your 4 door family sedan. If you beat him, then you can really give him some crap.

do it. theyre not that quick. i thought that the power pack was gears, tune, cai, and exhaust? with just an exhaust i dont know why you wouldnt be able to beat that car. i doubt that the stick would be that vast of an improvement over the auto on the street. he wont be able to launch the car hard enough for it to make a difference. besides it all depends if the guy can drive or not.

Guy's I have been beat.
Yes you never know.. odds are not in the LS4's favor. Stupid gearing and heavier car. IAT temps go up and power goes down.

Weird, I'be beaten every stock/light modded GT except for the '11 model... Maybe it's because I do roll races.

Well, I did beat 2 '10 models at the track, also.
