For me it's not as much feel the VVT as it is hear the VVT. Especially now with the SRI... total change in engine note when ya get on her.

 

i guess ill see soon with my injen intake on the way, then in feb ill be getting the corsa exhaust

 

so i can beat an auto cobalt ss? a kid at my school got a yellow one. (the bumble bee or school bus) some of the other kids make fun of it but i like it.

im somewhere around 15.5 on a 1/4 mi. but i beat a se-r sentra last week which i think are low 15's high 14's

 

My question.... what mods do you have on that V6 stang?

 

my answer... a stock (99+) 3.8 can run mid 15's, i only have intake and that will not make any differece.

mid 15's only w/ a manual the autos are a totally different story and the ending is well slower.

but i dont want to start **** about my car, i know there is a LOT of v6 mustangs that can't get under 16's but thats not the car, and i have never been on a track so i have nothing to back this up.

but anyway... well just say i can run 15.5 what will his auto run.
i can give him a run and see if i can back up my talk

Edit: here is a time slip(this is not me but the car only has intake)... http://3.8mustang.com/timeslips/inde...ion=view&id=99
this is another one w/ intake and exhaust.

That "Note" Gets better at around 7000 RPM!

 

I think I'm qualified to make fun of V6 Mustnags. We have one.

:P

It wouldn't bee to bad with a stick probably. I just don't like how Fords drive. I don't know why.

 

you have a v6 mustang (auto) and a cobalt ss auto? what do u think about the race?

 

My auto run so smooth... i love it... and i love how the car sounds too. i can't wait to get exhaust and an intake.

 

Yeah. The Mustang is my moms. It'd be hard to say. I don't drive the Mustang that incredibly often. But I also have that 2004 Monte SS. The Monte also has a 3.8 with auto. The HP is 200/225 for the Monte and 193/225 for the Mustang. I'd most certainly put all of my money on the Monte. The powerband is much better for my tastes. The Mustang V6 auto just feels like it's hesitating. Maybe it's just becasue of the auto? I don't know. But it's not working for it. So then for the Cobalt SS 2.4 auto, 171/163. Obviously the numbers aren't as great, but just like for the Monte, I love the powerband. Different manufacturers have different ways their engines feel. I just like GM's better. They feel more smooth. I'd say the Cobalt SS 2.4 auto wouldn't be a complete blow-away against a Mustang 3.8 auto. Grantid, I've never raced the Cobalt against anyone just yet (I got the car in the beginning of winter) but I am pretty confident in the cars power.

Yours is a stick though you said? Again, I've only ever driven a Mustang GT that had a stick. Besides that, I've never driven ford sticks. Well no...a ZX2 also. lol. The GT seemed like it liked the manual alot. But I can't speak for the 3.8. I can only say what I know about the auto from experience.

The only way to know is to go race that bumble bee.

 

haha i will! a group of us go out to lunch every day, in the group 1 kid has a v6 mustang auto, and i make that thing look silly. there is another kid that has a v6 camarro that i beat pretty easy, he isnt a good driver. i just want some of the bumble bee. maybe i can get a video.

 

I have the 06 HHR 2LT w/2.4 Engine. I have driven a 2.2 and I only notice a slight difference in speed. But I have learend there are always more preformance parts for cars with the better engines

 

I like my 2.4...

 

i like mine more everytime i drive it

 

I love mine more and more each day... i had an avalanche before this car so the gas savings and the handling of the car ROCK!
