Set-Up New Best Time

I have the stock pieces of crap tires... spin badly off the line.
I am using an NX EFI Kit. It is a wet kit (sprays into the intake). It is set up with a WOT (wide open throttle) switch which squeezes when I hit the switch. So basically I am squeezing the entire run down the track. NX is by FAR the best kit you can buy, I don't car what anyone tells you NX IS the best. They are designed to run rich which will prevent engine damage. It also has a fuel pressure safety switch which cuts the N2O if fuel pressure drops further protecting you from running lean and melting pistons. N20 has a bad rep but I promise you if it is set up right and not overdone you will not have to worry about engine failure or damage. If you are planning on getting Nitrous get a Nitrous Express Kit. Go to www.nitrousexpress.com and look around. I also have the Gen X 2 upgrade which gives you the bottle heater, purge valve and fuel pressure saftey switch. The purge valve and bottle heater ARE indispensible if you want the fastest time possible with your set-up. I surprised a few people at the track last night
I ran a 13.801 at 101.6 mph. My 60 ft was 2.08. Many many people were for some reason attracted to my car after that. I could have beat ANY stock Mustang besides newer cobras out there, even slightly modified ones. It is a great feeling, I can't really explain it, it is just the look the GT people gave me that made my heart skip a beat. I beat an almost stock 95 Cobra (still 5.0) he ran a 14.3 at 100.? I was extremely pleased.

Add-on

Also NOS brand and most other brands rate their shot size at the flywheel NX rate it at the tires. So a 100 hp shot of NOS brand is 100hp at the flywheel, NX's 100hp shot is 100hp at the wheels. Also NX has a lifetime warranty on their solenoids, no one else does.

Are you all high? How could you ever say a gsr would KILL a mustang V6. The 99 Mustang V6s are crazy fast . 0-60 in less than 7 seconds. Some people on this board need to go get some knowledge.

i drove my friends '01 mustang GT last week. it is a stick and i can say that i was not too impressed. he was not in the car, he just gave me the keys and said "take 'er for a spin." i was like ok, i ran over to the car and took off. (first time driving a V8 or RWD) of course i fishtailed when i took off, he doesnt care, he knew i would do it. Great low end power though, the high end is not there in my opinion.

im not trying to cause any problems but, i think you need to get some knowledge. First of all, just cause you 0-60 faster than another car, dont mean ur gonna be faster, it just means u can 0-60 faster. and no. the 99 v6 mustang is not all that crazy fast and no they do not 0-60 in less than 7 seconds since so many of us are speaking from a statistical mindframe, the gsr WILL BEAT the V6 Mustang to end the argument. For the sake of compaing these Stangs n Integras and speaking from a STATISTICAL point of view, please I have provided a website for you V6 Mustangers to compare. A stock 95 gsr WILL BEAT a stock V6 Mustang. Yes!!! RedrocketGSR will beat the V6Mustang, thats a statistical fact. Heres the site

Yeah I agree, V6 stangs are a joke. GSR hands down. GT's aren't that great either, but will beat a GSR. I think the new Mach 1 is sweeet though. It ran a 12.97 with drag slicks and Paul Svinicki behind the wheel.

OK back to the original topic, even though it was posted over a year ago.

This is taken from you sig, and if your times are accurate then you should be able to beat a STOCK V6 auto. My buddy ran 16.7 in his 00 V6, but he could shave a few tenths with a more aggressive launch and driving style, but I don't think it would be enough to hang.

Now if your going to race a manual V6, then I think you might be running into a problem. Those should be able to run mid to high 15's. Depending on driver skill and style, I think the V6 mustang will have the edge.

Just remember that driver skill has a lot to play, and just cause one person runs a certain time in a car, doesn't mean that the next person will with the exact same car. Speculation and assumption. I guess that's all part of bench racing.

I would have to go with what HiFlow5 0 says on this...A GSR will beat the newer STOCK mustang V6 if your skills are there. Skills is the key point...If you dont know your GSR...a corolla can beat it. Now if he is messing with you and gone about taking off the emblem of a GT (V8)...you are gonna lose. I dont care how hyped up your GSR is...as long as it is N/A...it wont beat it. Another factor is that older mustangs are 5.0 liters...you wont be able to take those out either. The thing is this...if you are gonna race a mustang...know that its almost like racing a civic. You'll never know what is under the hood. My 2 cents.

errrr, i raced a 5.0 in my old benz and i hung with it. Oh yeah, my benz weighed nearly 5000 lbs (it was a 1986). Those cars are really slow stock.

that would be sad if it didnt:licker: the 1.8t should beat a v6 stang. Also, what's faster, your e-class or the audi (i'm impartial to the old benzes--i had a 420 sel)
