worked v6 said:No, he said something about there being no power difference between a 4.6 and a 5.0... but again no one ever said anything about there being power differences.... might have been clearing things up and stoping it before it even got started.
5-SpeedStallion said:1. No one w/ just bolt-ons will come close to 13.8
2. What do you have that you think you will run anywhere near 13.8?
I am not trying to be a jerk by any means, I just want to be clear that it takes a few good mods, a good driver, good conditions, and a manual tranny for most to get into the 14's, and that it takes a LOT and for the planets to align for our V6's to really be able to hang w/ 99+ GT's and/or run 13's w/o resorting to F/I or Nitrous.

worked v6 said:Ok for the last time I
1. I never said I had just bolt-ons
2. I never said that a V6 could run a 13.8 1/4 mile with bolt-ons (I miss-understood what you guys concider bolt-ons)
I can tell you right now i'm gonna hear... WHY IN A V6! 'cause I got started and couldn't stop and most of these I did together, and some parts I got fairly cheap (ie. 65mm t-body, 85$)... However I will agree with who ever says it, "It was a little to much to do to a V6 and you should've got a GT" But I had it since it was practically new and it's my car and I love it.

EDIT: ...And not to sound like a jerk but, if I don't run atleast a very low 14 to a very high 13s 1/4 mile...i'm modding the wrong car.
Scott_95GT said:This is 100% correct.
GT: 5spd, Gears, full exhaust, traction, good driver = mid-high 13's
v6: 5spd, Gears, full exhaust, traction, good driver = mid-low 15's, might crack a 14.9
With 4 fat chicks in it.(or dudes...)ryanrule said:just race a 96-98 gt vert.
Scott_95GT said:There is no way on earth you are taking down GT's, let alone 32v Cobras with a bolt on v6. And no, it wouldn't be close.
Unless by "bolt-ons" you mean a Vortech @12lbs of boost.
My girlfriend has a 5spd 2001 v6, CAI, Dual flows, jet chip, eibach springs. It's a quick, fun car. But my stock geared, stock motor, AODE GT blows away her v6 powershifted.
Mine was 242 rwhp, bone stock,,even with baffle still in..98StangRidah said:99-04 GT = 230rwhp
As long as you are above that, with taller gearing, you should have a chance.
302fordracer said:I think it is funny that you guys keep dogging on the pre 99 gt's like they are nothing....94-98 gt's are nothing to laugh at..most of em are highly modded anyway..
5-SpeedStallion said:Sounds like you have a pretty nice V6. I think if you're spraying, you'll probably run where you want to be, but without the spray, I doubt it. The stock intake manifolds aren't THAT bad at flowing the air on a lightly modded car. Porting them really makes a difference once you port the heads as well or install a new cam... same thing with the MAF and TB. Anyway, nice 6. Maybe I'll see you around Tampa sometime.
BTW, don't you have gears? and what color is your car?
98V6 K.I.T.T. said:worked v6....i'm glad you finally told us what you have done to the car, nothing wrong with those mods, unfortunately the nitrous is really your only good sized mod, but i would say you could run a mid 14 atleast. i would suggest getting a nice cam for your nitrous application in the future.
about the track time and dyno....i was just saying this will give you real numbers and not assumptions.
Tru_Blue_104 said:I have a 94 v6 and took my friends 03 Gt. They're both manuals, but the reason I beat him was I've been driving stick for a while and he hasnt, so I beat him out of skill, not speed. But it can be done! Just take someone who has never driven stick before, convince them to buy a 5 speed GT and dont tell them how to drive it!
Really though, he's had it for a few months, but still is getting used to it.
98V6 K.I.T.T. said:worked v6....actually mid 15's in a 99+v6 mt runs mid 15's. some years back there was an artical about a 99v6 mt running a 14.9 stock with some weight reduction in a magazine, but nobody in the real world has ever done it. canton racer (i believe) ran a 15.2 bone stock, that's the best i've seen.
