2006 vs 2000

customstang · 02-03-2006, 03:01 PM

Hey all,

Just wondering who do you think will win a 2006 V6 Auto or a 2000 V6 Manual

Manual
190hp
more efficient than auto

Auto
210hp
less efficient than auto

A kid at my school got a 2006 V6 and it's really sweet, this is just a friendly competition and I don't care who wins, I think he probably will but it will still be fun.

So what do you guys think? Does the lesser hp model have a chance because of the manual tranny?

I'll let you guys know in a couple weeks (he has to get it broke in first)

Place ur bets

Thanks

Cya

Edit: no mods to either except the 2000 has 275's and the 2006 has the stock 245's (tires)

I would say the 06. I believe they are running the manual 06s in the high 14s. A auto would be maybe mid 15s, I doubt a stock V6 00 is that fast.

I would put my wifes stock 06 V6 up against an 00 V6 anyday.

I would also say the 06

I raced a 05 V6 with my 04 GT, i beat him, but tell ya what, he was a lot faster than i expected.
The 06 V6's are pretty quick. Besides the 20 HP increase on the 06, i think they are geared a bit differently. could be wrong tho.

Yah. I wouldnt bee too shocked to see a Stock 06 V6 race a stock 96 GT and win.

*Lances03SVT* · 02-03-2006, 04:51 PM

The 06 V6 has 3:55 gears

No kiddin?
Damn. That explains a lot.

96 GT 225hp with 3:23
06 V6 210hp with 3:55.

Yah. Thats gonna be a drivers race, the V6 deifnatly has the edge on a 2000 V6.
However, do the gears, intake, full exhaust, chip, you should be running neck to neck if not beating him

*Lances03SVT* · 02-03-2006, 04:54 PM

Yea I would'nt be afraid in it for sure.It really is fun too drive.

I'm not gonna mod my car to compete with him, this is just for the hell of it. Neither one of us cares who's faster.

BUT... someday (hopefully before summer) I plan on putting a V8 in my Stang anyway so then it really wont matter now will it

DaKillaKlown · 02-04-2006, 12:02 AM

To shine a little light on the matter, I had a run in with a 05 gt on the freeway, he got on my bumber revving, so he gets next to me, so i let him have it....lol, my friend was in his 98 v6 ahead of me a little ways, well me and the 05 took off, i was surprised i pulled on him, not only that i got bout 2 car lengths ahead, i went around my friend, who said it sounded like 2 nascars flying bye, me ahead of the 05, at about 135, 140 i had to get over and let the 05 by, but he barely pulled ahead of me then, we slowed down, gave each other thumbs up

only a true mustang lover could appreciate that

oh and I have a 96 gt with a few mods....

Blk02stang · 02-04-2006, 09:14 AM

I ran and '05 v6 awhile ago w/ my old '02 v6 and put a hurtin on him...his was a 5spd and all i had was my CAI/exhaust to his CAI.

Did that include nitrous though?

Blk02stang · 02-04-2006, 10:38 AM

No that was a few days after i got my new ECU in due to the old on spiking. so it was a normal v6 with exhaust and intake.....If i had the jugg in the car at the time I probably still wouldnt have used it unless it was real close or i was about to lose money.
