So coming back from Cars and Coffee I was at a red light next to a friend in his 2002 Steeda Mustang GT running a D1 charger @ 9 PSI, making 604 rwhp. I'm making 560-570 rwhp cause it's too cold to run the nitrous. We didn't really want to race but hey... Going from a dig, from a light, nothing but clear road ahead, I believe it's illegal to pass that up.

Light goes green, we both limp off the line because first gear is totally unusable on cold street tires. I hit second and go WOT and hear his charger whine, by the top of third I had him by a few cars.

Don't you know we hit ANOTHER red light together. I tried to run first gear harder this time, just got wheel spin. BUT, he did too, again I let up at about 120, top of third with a few cars on him. Good fun, props to a fast Mustang.

 

Good kills. Sounded like fun. And yeah... very rarely do two fast cars line up at a light next to each other with clear roads ahead and roll off in 2nd and cruise the rest of the way. LOL

 

Always nice to get a close race with two fast cars, but 604rwhp @ 9psi with a 2V GT? Is it a h/c/i car as well?

 

His car doesn't make anywhere near that power on 9 psi. H/C/I and 9 psi won't get him there either.

 

Yeah, 9psi on stock heads/cams is ~400-425rwhp (sometimes less).

 

Who cares??? How do you know it doesnt have a built 4v in it?

Good races OP.

 

Just another way of asking "hey, do you know the setup the Mustang has?"

 

All I can tell you is that what I quoted is directly from his online signature. Also, the speed difference between our cars would indicate about that much SAE RWHP.

 

Nice kill, sounds like some good fun! Street tires ftl though lol.

 

Good kill
