ya mustang gt's have nothing even on the stock LSJ... i would know i own a 95 with the 5 liter no compitition Even the new ones are really no comp. if you know how to drive

if it was a stock mustang

D4u2s0t

you're talking about a 13 year old car

the new ones are no comp for a stock ss/sc? do some more research.

sloancallaway

ya true mine is modded first and second i have raced 3 new ones and havent lost yet...

and the one in the video isn't even the new model

Nice run!! That is to be expected since you're stage 2 and he drives an 03 GT. If it was an 05 or newer it would have been different.

redcobaltss

i have raced new ones as well. Most of them i have taken. just because its not a newer sn97 style doesnt mean the older one is that much slower. they are lighter. i used to have a 03 GT with just bolt ons no gears and i would tear up newer ones with mods. i miss that GT

edit* also raced a mach 1 with a cat back about a week ago. Dont have vid but took him about 1 car up to 100 or so.

I used to have an 01 GT with the same mods as my 05 GT, and the 01 never had a chance, EVER!!! Stock for stock with equal drivers, the 05+ GT's are a 1/2 second faster in the 1/4 mile, 13.5-13.6 compared to 14.1-14.2. And the fastest stock 99-04 GT has gone 13.7 and the fastest 05+ has gone 13.2, and has gone 12.8-12.9 with just an intake, tune and some DR's. Mach 1's on average are a tad bit faster than an 05+ GT. Race one from a dig instead of roll racing.

race frum roll. i race frum roll.

Nice Job I do not fear Mustangs at all. Sure there are some fast ones, but I rarely see them on the street. Heres a video of a 427r Roush vs. a St2 Cobalt I shot for my friend Brian at the track. Wasnt even a race. Sure Mustang guys are going to say its a shitty driver but his MPH sucked as well. If they are so bad ass why didnt he catch Brian in the back 1/2 ??

The 427R makes a whopping 360rwhp/380rwtq. Hahahaha! Not all that mighty, but still faster than a GT.

I like my setup better.

I have raced on from a dig. he got me by about 1 car to about 80ish. of course i had traction issues of course u would say raced from a dig. that's where a mustang shines and a cobalt doesn't. a low roll is much more suited for us so there's no arguing about traction. as for the newer and older GTs, anything can happen. This what i had on my gt- Plenum, flows, prochamber, timing adjuster, and k&n filter. my best times where 13.6 street tires, and 12.95 and dr's. no tune on the car. when i raced newer sn97's they mostly had mid pipes and cat backs, and full cai i would leave the about 1 to 1 1/2 cars. the ones with gears would take me just the same. Its all different on the streets then in magazines.

FutureEcotecOwner

Sorry, but you're not gonna run a 13.6 with street tires and those mods and then slap on some DR's and knock off .7 seconds down to a 12.9, that is complete BS, not gonna happen.

I'm pretty sure with the right driver in a 427R it would put a serious hurtin on a GT, hell I would say it's safe to say it would beat an 03/04 Cobra.

06SS ALL DAY

stock or even 04 and below stang gt's with cat-backs and intake. i dont race i know for a fact i win by walking away. did it 4x already. waste of gas now

04YellowGT

Uhh the guy obviously couldn't drive. The car only ran 14.2, a bone stock 05 runs mid 13s.

They actually make 435hp/400tq but still a rip for the price.

Unless you had some serious weight reduction and slicks there is no way in hell you’re going to run 12.9 with those mods. The 13.6 is believable but the 12.9 is just not going to happen.

Psykostevo

Thanks for reading the brochure. I was talking about the RWHP as mentioned in my quote.

redcobaltss

a little weight reduction i guess u can say. No spare tire, skinnies, no back seat and on DR's. many said my car was a freak. i would pull other cars that had twice the mods (gears, tune, pulleys, Full exhaust) it was ran at San Antonio Race way. It has been known to set some fast times.

THRcobalt07

Mustangs suck plain and simple..unless its a Terminator or something. I as well raced a GT last night, either an 01 or 02 with exhaust, the video got messed up during filming somehow, but I won from a 40 by about a car to a car 1/2 and lost from a 30 by about a car cuz i decided to granny shift 3rd for some reason.

redcobaltss

well i did hit a 13.69 at 103 i think it was. It was a cold night. i ran about 10 times that night running constant 13.7-8s. its koo if you dont believe it. u weren't there. that was launching at about 1500-2000 rpm. had some tire spin most but not much. on the drags i would launch at about 4-4500 rpm and power shifted.

cakeeater

so a car that is 8 years old, had a base price about 1,000-2,000 more than your car, with just exhaust, sucks because it lost to you by a car and beat you in another race? damn. You have some high standards pal.

FutureEcotecOwner

I'm not saying you didnt run that 13.6 with your mods, I'm saying going from stock tires to DR's isnt going to drop your ET down to a 12.9.

You can never win on here if you're trying to back the Mustang. And I'll even agree if it's the truth, but most the **** said about Mustangs on here isnt true.

redcobaltss

i u understand what ur saying. when i had the dr, i had the weight reduction i guess u could say. i wish i had the proof to show ya.

FutureEcotecOwner

Yeah, maybe it can happen, but usually the best a 99-04 GT will run with full bolt ons, gears and DR's is in the 13.2-13.3 range. It usually takes atleast some cams and a nice tune to get into the 12's N/A.
