thats a high 13 second car stock. You are running 15.5 stock. You need tune, exhaust, gears (4.10)....actually, you just need two more cylinders. Youll never mod your car to beat him anyway...no one ever does on here from what iv seen. He has a decently fast car. You dont unfortunately. This is what you do to beat him.....GO to Hertz. Rent the GT-350H and then race him. :wave

So It is kinda a lost cause in your guys opinions? I thought our cars were in the mid 16s, not 15s. :dunnothisisme said:

Yeha, thanks guys, My car is coming along, thanks for the imput, what type of tune do you reccomend?
Here is my build plan,
1. 3:73 gears
2. engine tune (not sure what type)
3. UD pulleys
4. true dual pipes, gt take off catback, custom H pipe
5. CAI
6. K&n air filter
7. 8.8 T-Lock
8. Mac long tube headers
Thats it for what I have planed now, much more planned for the future.

now realize you can't just get a 8.8" t-lok without the 8.8" rear end.
Go for either Sniper, or SCT.
Save up for a dyno tune as well, with a/f readouts. That will help you out a lot. Get the most you can get out of it. You may want to look into some sort of poweradder as well.

Yeha, and 15% off, wow, looks like that is the best deal.Juggalo_X said:
it is a rather generous deal directly from sniper. you also qualify for other discounts on Sniper products for being a MM member and reading my review. as well as there sniper interface special forces has been updated and now comes with a full data logging suite for no extra cost!Mustangfan99 said:

Thanks man, Its gonna be a while until I race him but, with the mods I get, It should be a good race. I think I can take him. thanks for the help guys! :usaJuggalo_X said:
Just to let all you guys know who are looking for tuners
SCT > SNIPER
Call any mustang shop and ask them what they recommend, you might find ONE or two shops that are gonna say Sniper. Everybody says SCT for mustangs.
As for beating an IROC unless its in mint condition with less than 50k miles on the speedo you should beat it with no problems.
Never seen a HIGH 13second[stock] IROC in my life
Edit: It only has: 240hp

so then if most places sold Chevy instead of ford would that make them chevy better? your logic is illogical. that being said you need understand why sniper is the better choice. so i will explain yet again. and lastly SCT is sniper with less options for the end user and a different name Sniper MADE SCT! SCT BOUGHT THERE SOFTWARE AND ALL THERE **** FROM SNIPER. Sniper was the industry first. I dont know about you but im sticking with the company thats is making the innovation. not the one who buys it. Both are good tuners but sniper give you more options. if i bought a sct id still say sniper is better. whats wit the sct boner you in there pocket? I like sniper better cuz fact to fact they have more for your money option wise you like sct cuz every one els does or you have an sct boner or you are in there pocket you chose what u like to explain your self with.SSStang said:
