MustangMo · September 18th, 2006, 01:48 AM

Who would win?

itschristorres8 · September 18th, 2006, 02:00 AM

what mods does the v6 have and the grand prix...

MustangMo · September 18th, 2006, 02:04 AM

Mustang has aftermarket exhaust, and the GTP is all stock.

260 hp! thats a GT's race...not a v6

0-60 2 seconds faster then a v6
15s in the 1/4
i think the 97's ran mid or high 16's in the 1/4...
the grand prix for sure then

bengaltigerrex · September 18th, 2006, 03:17 AM

have to go with GTP...
just after market Exahust wont make much difference

AtlanticBlue99 · September 18th, 2006, 07:31 AM

a mild modded split port mustang can whoop it. i have bolt ons and run a second faster than the gtp

itschristorres8 · September 18th, 2006, 06:09 PM

yea the exuast wont really do much til you've got mods...then its job is more useful

1slo5.0 · September 20th, 2006, 11:05 PM

GTP by far.

\\i have bolt ons and run a second faster than the gtp\\

what kind of bolt-ons do you mean, and what would you say is a mild mod

AtlanticBlue99 · September 21st, 2006, 10:34 PM

mild is no internal engine work like cam..., just bolt ons like gears, full exhaust, tune, etc.

Are you sure about that? Stock GTPs with a bad driver that can barely reach the pedals will run high 14s.....at least 2000 model year GTPs. I know of a GTP with a pulley and drag radials that is in the 12s.

i ran a gtp at the track and beat it by a second.

it was the same body style as a 2000, but not sure on the year ranges of the motors and all.

i found that 200 gtp coupe had:
3.8L 240 hp V6
240 @ 5200 RPM
280 @ 3600 RPM

thats is good power, but they are heavy too at 3500 lbs. they stock ran a 0-60 in 6.8 seconds, 15.4@ 94.6 mph. which is a fast speed for that time. i trap 93-94 on my setup, and run mid-high 14s. now, i didnt beat the guy i race against by running a 14.4 b/c at the time, i was running 14.8-9s... but a v6 with 4.10s could run that time, with bolt ons, better. i ran a 15.3 before 4.10s...

Ninjawafers! · September 23rd, 2006, 06:29 PM

man i really want to get into this whole modding my engine thing... but man i spend too much money on other things... but the engine mods will come soon! with a S/C as well

Pay no attention to magazine tests as they are all flawed. A stock Mustang GT in 1988 ran high 14s in all magazine tests. My 88 GT ran 13.9 with the only modification being a shifter. There is a Grand Prix club in Wisconsin. I've seen more than one stock GTP run high 14s and like I said there is one with a pulley and drag radials in the 12s.

great drivers, i suppose. i have ran stock 96-98 gt mustangs and beat them in the 1/4. same with stock 87-93 5.0s

i guess track prep and location has a lot to do with it

Joey304 · September 23rd, 2006, 08:25 PM

when you beat a stock mustang gt, which mods did u have? and by how much can a modded v6 beat gt, and if anyone wants to throw in how far does a stock gt beat a v6

i can beat stock 5.0, 96-98 4.6 GT, and run with stock 99-04 4.6 at the track all day. the 5.0 is a torque monster over the 3.8, but i get them up top. i didnt race any gt mustangs until i got 4.10s, but i can run them now.

My friend Dan has a 12 sec, GTP. Actually Tidewater has a few GTP guys that will surprise you. Most TWR guys know Dan AKA, slowgtp on TWR

itschristorres8 · September 24th, 2006, 02:41 AM

2 car lengths in the 1/8 is a lot. i have yet to see a gtp with exhaust, usually it is just more boost
