nort316 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 My buddy had been wanting to race me once he put on some of his modifications on his V6 Mustang. He has 3.73 gears. Livewire tune. new headers. K&N intake. and hes waiting to install his torque converter. but anyway, he thought he could take me str8 up because i am stock, except for flowmaster 40 exhaust. Well i spun off the line but managed to stay in front of him by about a half car until we hit third gear and i pulled away, but that initial spin at the start could have cost me some respect, especially against a V6. I have 2006 Intimidator SS with the 2wd. i was wondering if anyone knew how i could get some better traction. Im lookin forward to racin my friends Subaru WRX, but im gonna need a good start to even have a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAYRAY25 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 What do you have done? If you're stock you'll need the usual (cai, exhaust, and tune) just to get close to the STI off the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGunny Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 If its just a WRX then with a tune CAI and exhaust you should be close to even with him... If its an STI your going to need a lot more then that... Maybe some juice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterp Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 ... lookin forward to racin my friends Subaru WRX, but im gonna need a good start to even have a chance. You're gonna need a lot more than that. AFA traction, a lot of it has to do with the factory goodyears, they are crap and downright dangerous in the wet. BTW - good kill Mr. P.
