Srt4 vs. Stang GT

[doodad]

[quote=GForce957]99-04 gt is a low 14 second for the most part, ive never seen 13's out of them, but its possible i guess


04 str-4
225 hp.
2900 lbs.
front wheel drive.

LT1 trans am/ formula
285 hp.
3311 lbs.
rear wheel drive


so u mean srt-4 is faster ?

l thought LT1s were way faster... l am really confused now man!!!

[GForce957]

i believe the 225 is underrated.

You have an automatic with 2.73 gears correct? thats gonna slow u down

I would say they are very close, ive never seen a race between either so i dunno for sure, but i think the srt is faster

I'm going to call BS on the power he said it had. The 96 Mustang only made 215 HP and 285 lb-ft torque at the crank stock. I don’t see a catback and K&N adding enough HP to get 260 300 at the wheels. About the Cobra transmission as far as I know the N/A Cobra and the Mustang GT used the same transmission, but don’t see how it would effect his cars performance.

A 96 GT with flowmasters and K&N is a 14.9 car on a good day. Nice kill nonetheless.

well yeah l got auto 2.73 gear. but l didnt say that for myself. l said it for every LT1 trans ams. manual tranny. and l still dont believe that srt-4s are faster than lt1s man.

mine has 128k miles on it and l dont think l have 285 hp. anymore and l am not using it for racing but it is still fast anyway.. so l am not saying that l can beat them. but l beated a 99-04 stang GT. with this high mileage auto car. maybe he wasnt a good driver but l got him.

l will post a new thread and ask this on firebird forum and l will see what they think about this and l let u know guys.

[GForce957]

yeah, i dont really know so im just going by a guess.

Also, didnt the manuals come with 3.42 gears?

Edit> I just found some more stuff about his car, it had a larger MAF, full exhaust rather than catback, 3.96 rear end...??(something like that). I'm not sure if any of that means anything but whatever...

Im enlesshearts friend, who was in the car with him during the time. He was only boosting about 14 psi. (vs. 17 for stock) The mustang was killing him off the line and through the first two gears but in third imidiatly passed him back up and would have put bus lengths on him if we had the room. Guy in the mustangs cool though.

[doodad]

man,

l just asked there and one guy answered (he knows better than many people) he said if they are both bone stock it would be drivers race..

now l am convinced. they re fast too.. and l really dont know about how manuals came.

Well I don't know enough about the Mustang to know if the larger MAF does much, but the gears should make the car a lot faster form a stop.
