    Default Should this have happened?

    Sitting at a red light the other day...an 01 model or so mustang gt revs at me with his gf in the passener seat. I guess hes trying to show off his gt in front of my slow hatch or something. So I just smile at him. Anyway light turns green I dump it and he guns it..his gt ends up being auto, but I pulled on him hardcore up to about 60 when I let off because speed limit was 45...my car has LS swap with msd ignition, stage 3 clutch and skunk 2 cam gears, catback and a header...discuss...if you want

    yes I'm sure it was a gt had all the emblems duel exhaust and I know the difference in the sound between a v6 and v8 I have a bunch of friends with mustangs and v6s don't sound nearly as mean no matter what you do even if you just remove the exhaust

    seems about right to me....
    when i had my LS hatch, i ran a stock GT @ commerce we both ran a 15.2, but if we did a highway run lets say "40-120" im pretty sure he'd get me cuz of the overall power, my hatch only had a B16 tranny and I/H/E as mods...

    Was it convertible? I know someone with that setup with a convertible and I swear my 4.3 Blazer with bolt ons could take him. lol. Either way, Even he said auto was slower then manual in those cars. So maybe, either way nice win. Busted him in front of his girl LOL.

    Bozzio for president.

    I destroyed a 2005 or 2006 5 speed GT the day I got my car. We went from a dig at a light to about 60 (in a 55. )...and I pulled like a car and a half. It was nuts. So yeah, that sounds about right.

    there are so many mustangs out there you can run into a wide variety. I'm not a big fan of them myself but will admit the gt's have one of the best sounding exhausts
