He runs 10 in the 1/8 mile. even with the GST, you can take him. But the oil filter isn't a performance mod.
I got one.. My friends got a 95' Eagle Talon ESI with a 5spd.. No major mods just fart cannon. I have a 96' Mustang V6 3.8 with a 5 spd.. no major mods just K&N air filter and dual exhaust. Anyone think I can take him.

what size exhaust?
if it's at 2.5" or bigger, you'd probably lose . ..
if it's 2-2.25" you'd have a slight advantage .. .

A friend of mine has a 98 Eclipse GS with a (supposed, I haven't really seen it) 98 GST Turbo in it. As far as I know, he doesn't have any major mods other than the usual fart cannon and oversized Mitusbishi window stickers. And, I wouldn't really worry if it weren't for the fact that he said he's got the turbo motor. Those make about what, 210hp? My only consolation is that he doesn't have the AWD conversion kit on his GS. He's also got maybe 500 pounds of stereo equipment in his hatch. Two 12in subs in a giant box with two huge 500 watt amplifiers hooked up to them, plus a big in-dash DVD player with other hardware.
Now, he says he runs 10's...i KNOW that ain't true.
but, I'm still intrigued.
I've got 2003 3.8 with Bosch +4 platinum tipped spark plugs, K&N Drop-in filter, Quaker State advanced synthetic with a K&N hi-performance oil filter, and I use 91octane gasoline. As of now, those are my only mods
I don't THINK he has the turbo motor. I've never heard that turbo whine coming from his car (but then again, his fart blaster is so loud, I may have missed it)
Do I even stand a chance against this guy if he's got what he says he's got?
-thanks!
Freakin loser wussed out on me!
Ya'll were right... shouldn't have bothere'd wasting my time

This guy... needs a reality check... big time!
He just started dating my cousin (makes me sick thinking about it) and she told me that he's been going around telling people that I've got a Cobra, but I'm telling people its a V6 so they'll race me and lose... He's the one who wouldn't race me! Sheesh! some people these days.
Where's the "Kick'em in the balls!" button on the keyboard?
Ooh it just frustrates me!

Just pop the hood!
Besides, anyone could tell just by looking at the badges/wheels & exhaust!
He thinks you're a shark? swapped base badges, etc onto a Cobra to make money? The sound would give you away, anyway!

You'd think so wouldn't you. But I guess he wants a reason to stay away from me.
edit: I thought about it for a second and realized that the 03-04 V6 without the Pony Package was equipped with the same inverted scoop hood that the 99-01 Cobras had... Maybe he saw that and just jumped to conclusions...
Anyways, thanks for the tips guys.
