screw that man, i say you can still take him. Nitrous is all about peak power in my opinion - you can't spray from launch through 110mph - while your S/C is working full time. Hell i just took a 300zx last night w/ just exhaust who was spraying without telling me before the race. Only found out once he purged it lol. matter of fact i took him twice in a row, although given i don't know what kinda shot he was spraying and he sucks ass at driving.
hey chris that 300zx you raced the other night.. was it silver with , black rims..tinted .....by any chance.??
I got challenged by this '98 V6 Mustang. Sure it's a V6 but it's serious. I used to work with the guy a few years ago so I know he's not BS'n.
It's got the following mods:
Built 4.2L truck motor
ported stock heads and intake
CAI
cam
LT Headers
Catted H pipe and catback
3.73 gears
100hp shot of nitrous.
He won't tell me how much power he's putting down. I'm guessing over 300rwhp.
You have a supercharged V8 and you are worried about a V^ with a 100 shot? That's crazy. If the V6 doesn't grenade during the run (which will be done on a track I assume) then you should still win easily.
Don't run off your mouth, just race him and walk him. Maybe one day your pal will save up and get an 8 piston engine.
still tho, what would you hope to expect to see from a v-8 stang w/ some head work, cams and full bolt ons? about 315hp 320-330 or so tq (generous imho)? So w/ a 100 shot living up to an actuall 100tq here (not ever likely) it puts a v-8 stang at 430tq. So this 430 tq is 10 less than a v-6 w/ the same mods!?!?! - you cant honestly tell me you think head work w/ cams and full bolts ons will put a v-6 at 340tq.
Talked to a friend of his. He told me he puts down 242hp to the wheels with no nitrous. With nitrous he's at 329 to the wheels with the 100 shot and 376 with the 150 shot. Yup, he told me he's running a 150 shot now and lied to me about the 100 shot. I think I'm screwed.
uhhhm....heres some numbers from a friends recent n/a vs. 100 shot pull
car has:
Magnaflow O/R X-Pipe
Magnaflow Catback
K&N FIPK GEN II
Roy's Composite Instake Spacer
Steeda Tri-Ax
Spec Stage 3 Clutch
SCT Chip
Custom Tune
and a 100 shot
car made
N/A - 286.73hp 304.19tq
Nitrous - 393.32hp 491.79tq
the 100 shot is usually what it makes in hp or close too it....the tq is usually almost double the shot (if setup properly)
I might have edged him just a bit. It was too close to call.
