Default Raced a turbo Stang!!

So tonight I was headed home and I see an ex-friend of mine. He has a turboed 04 V6 Mustang. I have seen the dyno sheet and it has 350rwhp and 320 torque. I talked to him while he was pumping gas trying to be all civil and then I go to head home. He shoots past me and revs his car. I catch up to him and we slow down to like 35 he honks it off and to around 90 I had him by 3-4 cars. We slow down and run again this time from 30 and I jump out ahead again. I go to shift to 3rd and I can't find it. Oh well I guess me being on the phone with my girlfriend had something to do with that. She was like your car sounds good and beat the crap out of that dang Mustang. I did and went home. Revenge is sweet. Added Bonus my woman got to hear me do it.

Dude Spector that is hilarious. You are correct though. If I remember correctly it made its peak hp and torque around 5600 or 5700 rpms. It is an auto without a shift kit so as soon as it reaches its peak it has to shift.

I second that power under the curve FTW.

You do know that as soon as you reach your peak hp you have to shift too right?

Luckily for you yours power curve is more like a gentle rolling hill, while for him it is like a very steep jump so it=gheyness for him

I doubt it, a stock internal GT motor would go *pop* with 14 psi

Tis true he is claiming to be running 14 psi on it. He might be and it will go BOOM probably sooner than later. He also said that it has 400 rwhp. If it does why in the world did he back down from a friend of mine that has a civc hatchback with a turbo and only 180 whp. I find that hilarious.
