    Stage 4 depends on who builds it. PES, EVOMS, Imagine Auto, AWE, etc. I am not so sure that said car is a stage 4, however.

    you can see it lost right? There is another video of both cars running from a stop on the street and the porsche loses very bad.

    I have my own thoughts on that video. Either way, a 911 turbo is not a drag car.

    Why do I say that? Stage 4 is over 600+hp and tq. For a car to truly outrun it that badly (with that level of power), well, you get the idea...

    what are your thoughts? The mustang is very fast...its no shame for that porsche to lose to that mustang...that car has run 10.2@141 with 15 psi of boost....he can run neck and neck with a gxr-1000 on the highway.

    that mustang puts close to 700 hp at the tires.

    A stage 4 911 turbo would not be in the 10s, so there is your reasoning. Then again, 911 turbos aren't made to run the drag strip. The gearing is not setup for it and the suspension/AWD layout is not, either.

    I'm not sure what you are trying to pull with that statement, but a 10.2 sec stang isn't going to lose to much. I had no idea that it was that fast. That would explain why the 911 lost.

    ok fair enough. I was trying to figure out what kind of power a stage 4 would make. A stock 911 or even mildy modded would get destroyed by that mustang.

    No. It would be in the low 11s and probably run in the high 120s, low 130s in terms of trap speed.

    Okay, but I fail to see your point. A Ferrari Enzo would get destroyed by that car in the 1/4 mile. What's your point?

    You were trying to say earlier that 911 wasn't a stage 4 becasue you couldn't tell how fast the mustang was. I guess you don't think you can build a street mustang that can trap 140+ mph and be daily driveable?

    Twisties? No, they are made for real racing; road course racing.

    You aren't going to bait me, here. I didn't say that, so don't put words in my mouth. Anything can be built with enough money.

    haha,i got you here...

    you said "Why do I say that? Stage 4 is over 600+hp and tq. For a car to truly outrun it that badly (with that level of power), well, you get the idea..."

    You are implying a mustang can't make over 600 hp and still be a street car? I mean you wouldn't say that if it was some dodge viper or something thats comes fast from the factory not some lowly pos fox body.

    Once again, stop assuming. If a Mustang is running 10.2 @ 141, then it is making the proper amount of power. You didn't get me. However, it is very rare that you see a low 10 sec car running on the streets.

    I did not think it was a stage 4. You want to post up a crappy vid that is so dark it is hard to see anything and then try and start an argument with someone who clearly knows Porsche's. Next time if you want people to respond in kind post up some information about the cars that are running if you know some much about them.

    Ruiner already said a stage 4 is good for high 120s/low 130s traps and that mustang runs low 140s traps. I'm sure it was a stage 4. I was just trying to find out what kind of power they make thats all.

    The title of the video is porsche gtr vs mustang. I didn't think it was necessary to say what the other car was. Maybe you just need to pay more attention.

    There are ways to go about it and there are ways to look like a smartass. I see you chose the latter. You could have simply asked "Here is a vid of a built mustang running 10.2 in the 1/4 against a supposed Porsche 996 Stage 4. How fast do the stage 4 996's run? Just wondering"
    See, that is asking for information about the 996 and not trying to start an argument by not supplying all the info in the first post the getting defensive about it.

    Look at how the vid is posted, most of the link is cut off. When we click it we watch a really dark video. So how about finding another way to be a smartass
