if u get new pulleys and chipped, theres 30 more hp and you'd be ever so close to us GT's. And thatd only run u about $500. $500 for 30 hp aint too shabby.

are there places that will tune the car without having to buy the whole damn system? cuz 15 hp for 400 dollars and higher gas isn't worth it to me...

Busting an import with a V6 Mustang is priceless.

good job on the kills. but if you cant beat those cars you have no business racing anything. and why do you think your stickshift is making you faster?

From a roll, i can put it in the correct gear faster, and pull through each gear correctly, it's really hard to do that in an auto, plus on the street turning with a manual is alot safer/better, hence why all the rally cars ie STi, EVo, SVT Focus, REnalts...are manual, and alota drag racing cars are auto...

with al the people in his car he probably weighed just as much as mine, which is what I was getting at...i dunno but for some reason it feels like my car is faster down here in FL then it is back home in MD, could be the air is cleaner...

you can't fit 5 guys in an RX-7 my friend has a 3rd gen RX-7 and it's hard to fit 3 ppl..sucks to be the 3rd person in the back all crunched up in the trunkish area don't know what you would call the back lol..no seats. I know you wouldn't want to be the 3rd person in the RX-7 for driving around looking for races, and was it turbo or N/A? not trying to bust on you..just hard to believe a v6 mustang beating a RX-7 even if it's second gen unless it was N/A.

Hey pissy pants, dont **** on his cheerios because some pissed on yours. Let the man celebrate. And grimmz...lol your mod theory is terrible. If you go by that theory of "hey its under the hood" then I should say. MODS: Valve covers, pcv valve, ac lines....etc. LOL Stay safe man.

It wasn't a TT version, and thats not really what I was worried about, it was the BMW that got on my tail and then tried to pass but couldn't, 3 am in the mornin in a college town, you know where i was comin back from, but I wasn't really worried about how many people were in the RX-7 the BMW def. had atleast 3 people i saw, i thought 4-5 b/c the guy lives in my complex and i saw 6 people standing by his car when i walked up the stairs.

The point i was making was that alota imports have NO torque, ie my best friend has a WRX, when I raced him (back when his car was stock) he malested me about 0-80, but after that i started gaining on him pretty quickly and just about caught up to him at 115-120...then the gov. kicked in. Same wit a buddy of mine's GT who raced him, except after 0-60 he still accelerated pretty well and the WRX lagged behind. Then again Rally car, Road race car...

Matt...yeah i know i was jokin about the filter...i just thought it was funny because MM&FF actually did a dyno test on the K&N filters...idk why but i thought it was amusing.
