Alright I haven't had my chance at a 5.0 yet and I've been wanting it for about year.

5.0 m6 cai axle back exhaust

SS m6 cai w scoop 1 7/8" LTs no cats full exhaust hurst short throw bmr 1.4" drop and new nitto nt05r tires.. I am NOT tuned

Race is tomorrow but rain is in the forecast but either way thoughts FROM EXPERIENCE would be appreciated.

Drivers race. Your tires will give you slight advantage if you launch correctly.

BubbaSS · 06-12-2014, 08:20 PM

It's all in your launch...a tune and 3.91+ gears would make things a lot easier for you.

87GNX · 06-12-2014, 08:51 PM

the mustang has no mods really...cai adds nothing to the coyote..drivers race still on this one.

PDP_SS · 06-12-2014, 09:08 PM

Me and my friends car were set up a lot like this at one point. I don't know if y'all are role racing or goin from a dig but I could win anyway we raced at that point. I wouldn't sweat it just bring home another win for the LS BOYS!!!!! Lol

Yea I'm being cheap on the tune lol I still plan on camming and I don't want to tune until I'm done with the mods I don't drive it everyday I've only put 3,000 miles on it this year so I'm skimping on the tune until it's cammed.

I also think we will be really close. I was hoping my mods made it a drivers race.

Excellent Smithers (mr burns)!!! Lmao that's what this feels like.. Hope you've seen the Simpsons

I think you have more then a good chance with this...I vote you.

derklug · 06-13-2014, 12:05 AM

You'll lose by bus lengths.......OK, I had to say that. Close either way, roll or dig. Without a tune, but with tires, I think that you win on dig but not on roll.

WHAMMO · 06-13-2014, 12:24 AM

There is something wrong if you dont win. Catback and CAI do not add much compared to your mods. Roll is a sure win and dig is only about launching, where the Muatang have the advantage. Im door to door with a Stingray with the same mods as you.

What rims are you running?

SGOS252382 · 06-13-2014, 07:48 AM

Definitely a drivers race, especially since your a manual. If you get a good launch, I think you'll beat him.

I raced a 5.0 with a similar setup and smoked him badly- I was running 20" NT555R tires and hooked really well and I never looked back. It wasn't even a close race.
But I'm an auto and consistantly pull 1.7 sec 60' without much trouble.

You should win easily
