My Bro-in-Law's '07 GT500

[wwpms6]

I'm not gonna argue. The car sucks ass anyway. That is just what I was told. I do know the GT he had dynoed at 496 at the wheels... I saw it myself. Much better car @ a much better price.

i wasn't trying to argue because i actually love the car. its even the same color i would get it. if i had the money to buy one, i would have one. i'm just a mustang lover i guess. i have a 65 and one of my dream cars is a 67 gt500. i believe you about his other car. i've seen some bad gt's and even a couple v6's that would probably outrun the gt500

i could careless about all this gto vs. mustang stuff going on. i like both, but if i had the money i would choose the gt500 over the gto. everyone has there own opinion.

i wasn't trying to argue...

I worded that wrong, I meant that I agree with you in other words that I would not argue that fact.
by the way, anyone that doesn't half way bust a nut over the original "Eleanor", something is wrong with them. lol. I totally agree with you on that.

Well, Well, Well... We went to the drag strip last night. I have to say I was not impressed. I was so unimpressed that I left after his first few runs. His best time was 13.22, actually 4 seconds slower than the '06 GT that he had before. What a waste of money, I think. My niece took some videos of him running, but we don't know where the computer cables are, so give me a few days to round something up to get them on the computer. later guys and gals.

a few more "budget" mods and I'll beat that time in my beater (first)

don't know...and don't want to get embarrased at the track...my excuse is an old clutch with too much torque

once I get my clutch, and finish a few minor things, I expect low 13's high 12's.

this is the thread where I get my comparison:

he was running the same turbo as me, 255lph walbro, 4:1 FMU (I believe), 18psi, nasty clutch and slicks.

me, tbird hybrid, 195lph, 14psi and slipping clutch. just need the clutch, fmu and slicks, and will good to go

I'm *think* hitting low 14's right now. played with a new Charger R/T a little while ago and he couldn't gain more than 3/4 CL on me through 3rd gear.
