a v6 with any amount of nitrous isn't going to do jack upside a 5.4/sc. Sorry... but barring a full race motor you just can't stuff enough nitrous in a 6 to make the 450-800hp you're likely to see from a big blown devil like that.

If I were to buy a v6 it would almost certainly replace my gt in autocross. The GT just can't get over the weight difference up front. If you drop a turbo or twin turbo or a blower on it after that you'll have a fast car (about gt fast). I just don't go insulting 2000 Cobra R drivers when they pick on my underpowered engine or tiny (13" bear track kit) brakes at the autocross event. They are usually correct in their statements at that time.

I'm not picking on anyone here. I won't unless you really need a picking on, then you'll get a taunting. Keep that in mind.

 

I beg to differ....6 days ago I ran my boy's friends '03 lightning and beat it 2 times 1st from a 1st gear roll....i put 3 cars on him, and the 2nd from a stop..he got me by a car out the hole then i put the upset on him when i came by him at the end of my 2nd gear.

You are right about a 5.4 crate motor....i wouldnt do much with that.

 

bully . well justin over at 3.8forums has a twin turboed v6 running 10's with a stock bottom end if that tells you anything and according to cuban only 6,000 in the engine. There is one other v6 that are engines are modeled very closely with a grand national and that would smack v8's.

 

r3dn3ck, you said you have a 13" bear track kit brakes, dont you mean BAER brake kit?

 

blk02 quit being a kid... grow up just a little maybe try acting 10 or so. At least I own a BAER track kit ok.. suck on that junior. And a lightning starts at about 4400lbs... it's not even the same car. Try at least containing your vigor to the argument at hand. Have you raced a v6 powered f150 too? does it ****** matter what you race against a truck, it's still a truck. We've been talking stangs, don't go changing cars to discredit a fact you know to be the truth just because you don't like it. As soon as I'm done with the 5.4 install, I'll drive out to Virginia and we'z can race. Your street legal sickser against my street legal blown 5.4 on a legal 1/4 mile track? Cmon, back up the mouth. I'm willing to drive across the country to ridicule ya. Dont be bitchy man... I'm just here to chat and maybe find ideas for my upcoming 6er project car.

 

Dude Chill the **** out i'm not bad mouthing you about a Baer big brake kit...if I had $1300 i'de put the same kit on...my boy has their brake kit on all of his show cars....and everyone always messes up calling it BEAR in stead of the proper name, i'm not bad mouthing you about it.

...As for a lightning...yea it might weight 1,000lbs more but it's still a 5.4 S/c vs. my lil V6...you never said a 5.4 s/c in a stang, you put it out as a 5.4 in general.

Your challenge i will accept too and i'm not being cocky about it, i'll race anything...win or lose jus to see how i do.

 

good enough. Issue settled.

FYI...lightnings in stock trim run with gt's, they get smoked by mach1's and cobras. a thousand pounds is a lot of weight. If you're owning a lightning... might want to back down on the juice a little. I'd be worried about engine life unless you've built it already.

oh... and I got my brakes for 300 bucks.

 

Juice isnt much of an issue, it's been dyno tuned for the shot, as well as not being sprayed all the time, only when needed or if i'm unsure about a race. I've already planned on yanking the engine more than likely before the end of winter and either rebuilding it as a 4.2 hybrid or swaping in a '00 Cobra engine, not certain wich since i like haveing a 6 that beats up on v8's

 

I have a natural distrust of large doses of juice. Personal bias based on nothing. As far as your swap plans go, just keep in mind how much modding you want to do after you do your initial swap. if you do the cobra motor you're kinda limited in mod selection by the unfukkinbelievably high cost of 4v go-fast parts and the relatively limited selection. supercharging is only a good idea on stock bottom ends in relatively low doses. Nitrous is fun but too much and too much RPM breaks rods fast.

I'm waiting to see a moderate cost v6 put down 400rwhp/tq on a reasonable amount of boost. I think that would be a friggin rocket and a reason to look at a v6 as a build-up possibility for the masses.

 

Ok then...I don't know why you got so upset and felt like it was ok for you to attack me personally but ok I'll just leave that one alone. I'm only going to point out a few mistakes you have made and leave it at that good luck with all of your projects.

1. I paid 15k for my sixer brand new
2. A 99+ auto 3.8 with an 11 psi procharger set-up runs in the 280rwhp range and that's stock '01 cobra area not stock GT's noob.
3. If you spend 4000 on "supporting mods" and installation you are the dumbest person EVER!!!
4. Stock lightnings should run with mach 1's all day beat most of them stock vs. stock. I know this for a fact so don't try and debate that.
5. 2.5" piping is perfect for a blown 3.8. Keeps low end torque but it's just free enough to run good hp numbers up top.
6. "I'm waiting to see a moderate cost v6 put down 400rwhp/tq on a reasonable amount of boost. I think that would be a friggin rocket and a reason to look at a v6 as a build-up possibility for the masses."
vmptuning.com=sixer in the 10's with 6k invested not including car of course.

And lastly I fully expect a responce from you that goes along the lines of your last post. You know the all too usual "You're dumb because you have a six so I'm automaticly smarter then you and know more about cars then you do even yours ha ha ha"

So go ahead and get that out of your system when you're ready to debate with my about facts and not call me a duty face like as if we were back in 1st grade you'll know where to find me

LOL I just went back and noticed his last sentence LOL. God if that post weren't so long I would put it in my sig LOL.

Oh and my car isn't blown; I don't know where you got that from.

 

LOL well after considering things for about 10 minutes I have come to some conslussions.

1. A lot of "knowledge" in this section is coming from people who own V8's and have no clue how to mod a six.
2. Those who do have V8's and try to contribute possitivly don't post in here enough.
3. I find it somewhat funny that I personally take so much time to research and find out as much as possible about every car, especially mustang duh, and yet others are too full of themselves and their possesions to even think about maybe learning about a different car.
4. You don't see sixer guys who don't know how to mod a 4.6 or 5.4 or 2.3 or what ever giving advice, and yet the sixers get advice from people who are most of the time using what I like to call V8 knowledge/theory. Even when we don't ask for it.
5. And this is the most important of all. From now on whether you have a six or eight or whatever if you ever perpusly disrespect me or my car for that matter. Or try to personally attack me, or even get a temper tantrume I will simply ignore you. Because you are obviously too childish to debate peacefully and inteligently.


Man...who would have thaught it would come to this huh.

PS: To all sixer guys I heart you all LOL. To most V8 guys I heart you all. To the small number of "children", if you want a definition on "children" please refer to number's 1-5, go away and stay away. Atleast from me.

 

are you still here.... dude I haven't even been talking to you for a while... Jeeze Napoleon... you really need to get some perspective and make fewer lists... noone cares, least of which me. I didn't even, nor will I ever, read them.

Now go back to the eigth grade and grip at someone your own age. You big bad interweb bully....

 

LOL how was I a bully? Because I posted facts and examples instead of the dumb jokes you tried to post. Go back to your first post if you don't remember. :loser:

I have a new favorite member LOL.

PS: If you are going to change my quote to try and be funny atleast spell correctly and use proper grammar...

 

Alright guys that is enough bickering amongst yourselves we are not helping out people that way. All that does is show immaturity.
