youll win as long as your a manual transmission



wifey had a 3.8 mustang and while she would get a better 60 foot, i would get her around second gear and beat her by roughly 2-3 cars

ive been v6 mustangs on the highway so i know its doable. i can see with manual tranny you being able to get him just because you have control over the gearbox.

my wife had a base model 98 Mustang, automatic

I had a 2000 Tiburon, automatic, really only a CAI

We'd stay neck-and-neck for the most part from a redlight pull. She'd start to pull away after 1/8 mile maybe, but we stayed pretty close.

Majiks tib was auto, which is proven to be almost a second slower in the quarter than a manual

lol you really think I finish a quarter mile in 18 seconds ?? You're dreaming dude.. When My tib was stock to the bone I did 17 FLAT.. After headers and exhaust no cold air or anything I was running 16,6 .. Now I don't know but probably 16,3 until I port the rest of the intake..
