just wondering...
I have seen a LOT of posers riding around in their parents Rustang GTs latley. This is pre-2005 (1999-2004) where they ride on 260bhp and 306btq..
just wondering, since they dyno out at about 220hp (dont know about tq) if I am rocking a 250fwhp Focus, if they would fall prey to my little ol 4 cylinder?
I think I would be rocking 250fwhp, and 210fwtq, running 12 psi on the PW kit I just ordered. I am asking because I know torque makes all the difference, even though I would be pushing out more ponies than him, my torque is significantly lower. But still im getting 24MPG+ :)
I know the facts:
- I will beat him out of the dig since I am FWD, he is not
- I will beat him up until the end of 2nd gear (maybe a little bit more or less)
- then he might pass me and own me.
- his car weighs about 700 more pounds (800 when I gut the rear)
but then again, when can 3rd gear be achieved in the city? not very often because wed already be pushing 130km/h
I am asking this because every poser I know, if challeneged to a track event, will not show. Haha im not calling every mustang owner a poser, just the ones who drive their cars with their hats on sideways, seats so far back, and are playing 50 cent crackling their stock speakers, in their parents Mustang GT.
anyone know what I would be expecting?
