Is this even possible?
First of all, hey, I'm new. :wave:
My friend has a 2001 V6 Stang auto with a posi 4.10 rear, mac dual exhaust, and bassani x pipe. he tells me he's beat some GTs out on the street, and even hung with an 05 GT...which i find to be difficult to believe. He also talks about destroying Integras all the time, but that's more believable.
What i'm really asking i guess is it possible to beat GTs with simple mods like that to a V6 auto? I'm hopefully getting a stang soon, and after hanging around his car, it seems like a V6 ain't so bad as long as you do what he's done.

He can come against me and my GT anyday. All i have is CAI, Xpipe, and Straights, i'd be willing to throw a grand down on the race. >
Now if he had an 05 Mustang V6, i might believe he has beat some older GT's. For a V6 those 05's are freakin fast. ford really did it's research on them.
Hang with an 05GT? No chance in hell, unless the 05 GT driver was retarded and missing a few limbs.
Sounds more like he has a V6 and wishes it was a V8 so he has to tell everyone how fast it is. He might be able to convince some people, but he will never fool himself. <rofl>

What do you mean by beating? And what year GT is he talking about? Some 96-98's can't break 15's. Then there is the issue of was it really a race, was it fair? My car is pretty slow acclerating from 5th gear at 50 mph.
For the most part, I never believe guys who like to talk alot about beating other cars on the street. Guys with fast cars, don't need to talk about it.
I had a kid trying to race me in a saturn once. After killing him, he passed me (I let him) and I am sure he proceeded to tell all his friends he beat a GT.

I have seen plenty of stangs beat F bodies in the 1/4, but the F body had much higher trap speeds. Give him another 1/16th mile, and the chicken-hawk wins. So in a street race, the F body might walk all over the stang if they were to race from 50 mph or something like that.
