eh dont the V6 cougers have around 165hp? or is it 180? mmmm Idk dude your car is abit lighter and has a better torque curv. And since you have a 200 you have about 155 hp. Ummm Fuck with your mafs, and make a ghetto cold air intake. And make sure eto cut and tape up that Block on the right thats part of the plastic intake tube near the top. Ive done this and messed with the mafs and Im guessing Ive picked up at most 5hp. Still not that bad.Either way I dont think youll win honestly. It'll be a close race no doubt but I think hell pull ahead in 3rd gear. Just my opinion. But if you strip your shit add a better exhaust and an intake youll beat him with out a doubt. Also make sure you have some good tires up front.

oh wait I didnt see that part when you said he had an automatic lol. Yeah youll win dude my bad Cougars have ShITty tranmissions and loose a good 5-10 hp. Plus its added weight. And since his is a V6 Im guessing its got taht crappy leather shit to right? Youll win with out a doubt just ignore my first post
