Default Raced 5.0 2nd gen rx-7!!!

This guy at work finally finished his project, He put a 5.0, and t5 out of a 89 stang in his 2nd gen rx7, he was talking smack the whole time saying he was going to beat me bla bla bla, He thinks he can run 11's, Im running high 12's. So finally after work we got on the highway and first did a 20 roll both hit it, He hung till I hit third then I pulled on him hard up to 135 I was about 12 cars in front of him, He said he beat me at the track cause the rx7 has 4.11 gears in it, I dont know though. He was salty though after I handed it to him on the highway coming up with excuses left to right.

He should run low 13's with a stock 5.0. RX-7's do have 4.10 gears. Good kill. Now you need to run my RX-7. I have a 2nd Gen also.

I just do NOT SEE IT, the TT RX7 made 255 hp and ran 13's, his 5.0 makes 225 hp, so how the hell does he figure 11's unless the 2nd gen's were a lot lighter or something? Im lost. But NO WAY should he be as fast as he thinks. Good kill on the ****-talker.

Do you mean with the stock 5.0 in the RX-7? Because I don't see a stock 5.0 Mustang running anywhere near 13s...

Yeah, I mean a stock 5.0 swap in a 2nd Gen RX-7. And it is probably more around mid to high 13's. Because the guy I took that from had an exhaust, headers, and tires and ran a 13.3. On the RX7 V8 site.
