Can the V6 Beat the V8

Vanilla Gorilla · May 8th, 2007, 09:07 PM

I just recently purchased an 02 mustang V6 with an automatic transmission. Its a great lookin car but the horsepower is a little lacking...i was woundering wut type of mods would be most favourable for the car keeping in mind that it is a daily driver for me...is it possible 2 beat a v8 mustang with the v6 without super or turbo charging it??

probably need a power pak, intake, exhaust, gears, and posi

more if you want to beat a 99-04 gt

i dont know if you could beat a gt with mods for a daily driver....but i would get a cai, headers, off-road h-pipe, cat back (of choise), livewire or some kind of tuner (different people will give you different opinions),under drive pullies, 3.55 or 3.75 gears, t-loc, stage 2 or 2+ power pac from http://www.supersixmotorsports.com/, a shift kit for your tranny (i would get a mild one so you wont go through tires), and a tune for your tranny, and a new ported throttle body from super six...that should give most gt's a run for their money

i wouldnt stroke a motor on a daily driver...sucks a little to much gas

Header / gear installs are MAJOR to some people....

2.25" maindrail dual exhaust + long tubes + bbk + shift kit + stall + sct + remove back seat + remove spair tire + UDP + 4.10 = probally beat a 99- GT easy
