trying for 15's

[mustang372004]

Me and my friends are having a competition to see who can get in the 15's first. I was wondering what I could do to get my car in the 15's first, I already have exhaust and a CAI. I don't want to go the nitrous route cause I don't think my car could handle it with how many miles I have on my car.

Clutch and flywheel. You'll be there with those 2 mods. Assuming you have a 5-spd V6 Mustang.

[mustang372004]

my car is an auto so no clutch and flywheel

[chevytrucks92]

How close are ya now?

[joebowlr21]

Competition Shift kit and Aftermarket Cam.......should get you there, but u do have the v6, so i can't gaurantee anything!

[fugiot]

Yeah, with an automatic the only things I would suggest as a non-forced-induction mod, would be cams and headers.

[mustang372004]

only been to the track once so my best time is a 16.892 so far

[chevytrucks92]

Well, 8 tenths will be hard to come by, especially if you are not going the forced induction route. Like the others said, you'll have to do some modifications to the internals of your engine. Thing is, if you change the cam and you have higher mileage, you might want to rebuild the engine too.

I'd suggest trying to loose some weight and change the gear ratio, and learn how to drive that car like no other! That and tires. Get the best gripping tires available! If you could shed a couple 100 pounds from the car, put a shorter gear in it, and pull off hte perfect launch, then that woudl get ya alot closer then what you are.

Get 4:10 gears,3000 stall converter and t loc and with a good launch and good tires you should be able to be in the 15's.Or you could put some slicks on your car and you'll be in the 15's.

just ebcause you slap on some racing slicks it doesn't mean you will run faster times. He might not even have the power to run slicks, to much traction for his slightly modded GT.Which would make him lose time.You can't go an throw slicks on something an expect it to be faster. If it doesn't have the necessary power, it's pointless.

You are retarted, you think a GT would be running in the 16s?? My advice to you to get in the fifteens is to buy a V8, instead of some shitty v6. I could lend you my car, but you might kill yourself in it.

[mustang372004]

Well if I had the money to get a V8 I would but until I do get enough money for a V8 I'll have to do what I can with what I got. Naw I think I could handle your car 01 venom

Really now, you can handle a car thats best 1/4 time is a 9.88, and is also a daily driver, you must be pretty talented for a 6 cyl. driver.
