Got called out, requesting some info Alrighty, here the deal. My roomies brother called me out to race tomorrow. Hopefully he doesn't chicken out and I can get a vid to post.
Him: 2006 mustang A4
Stall, tune, exhuast, intake. Claimed 380rwhp on the dyno now.
Me: 2000 T/A WS6 A4
3500 stall
catback !cats
lid, K&N
Some tuning
This guy could by lying about his mods, because he has told me before that it was 600+ rwhp with a blower but the story changes every time. He also believes that LS1s put down around 200rwhp and talks such a mountain of **** that people started climbing that instead of everest. Basically, what I'm asking is if I will get my *** handed to me because I've heard that the A4 stangs can be pretty fast when tuned right. Its a no money race so I won't feel bad but just wondering what I should be prepared for. I would like to put him in his place but the mods seem kind of even and I would give it to the newer car in that case.

380rwhp from those mods he's definitely lying about something. Maybe if he sprayed a 50 shot. I'd say, given he has full intake/exhaust, he's MAYBE at 360-370rwhp TOPS. Then again with all the 600hp talk with just a blower, he's a bull *******.

I know one guy who I went to high school with who drives an 05 GT and he NEVER wants to race. He got the flowmasters from ford and i think he has a few small things, but you should really have no problem.
I was jk about the bench racing comment btw lol

I knew I was going to catch **** for it at some point, might as well be right off 
but I'm thinking it will be pretty close, I just did a full tune up today (lost one of my $6 spark plugs behind my motor mount ARG) so hopefully I can put some hurting on him for the amount of smack he talks.

First of all he is either a great lier and has a small shot or just an idiot. No way in hell he is putting down much more than 330 to the tire with just intake and exhaust. They dyno right about 270~RWHP stock so he would need full exhaust including LT's and a C & L intake or something close to get close to the 330 to the tire # I just said.
That being said its a drivers race if he can launch off the stall and because he has an A5 which keeps the engine in the powerband more of the time.

that's outright bullshit. Unless he's hiding at least a 75 shot he is around 300-310rwhp. and 320-330rwtq. Also, 600rwhp might be possible with a blower, but it would take a lot of others things as well. There are several Vortech HO supercharged '05+ 'Stangs on mustangforums and through an auto with a catback they're putting down ~425rwhp and ~390 tq

okay, theres no way in hell hes makin 380 whp with those mods, considering hes through an auto with those mods hes prob right around 300whp. the only way he would have 380 is maybe with a 75shot, and about the 600whp blowrer thing, tell your friend hes a complete idiot. none of the 3v are runnin over 550whp on the stock internals for long. he would get about 4 pulls out of it at that pwrlevel and boom.
