So this morning I'm getting off work and the guy coming in finds out I have a SRT. He says, "you think you can take my Mustang?"
Now I saw his car once, its a Rousch Mustang pretty badass looking. He tells me he has a full stainless exhaust (no headers) and a supercharger. Not sure on tune.
I told him I'd probally get him from a dig then he'd close on me. No plans on running him....yet, but I'm curious to see if any of you ran a similar car and the out come?
What kind of power is that Mustang making?

Is it a convertible? I always see one around here

What mods are on your jeep. I highly doubt he can launch that thing for shit on the street. I'd run his ass up to 80 and he could never pass you.

The 4.6 L V8 now has the output of 415 hp (268.4 kW) and 385 ft·lb (521 Nm) with a Roush supercharger and an air-to-water intercooler. The new top of the line is the 427R, which is based on the Stage 3 Mustang. It produces an additional 20 horsepower (14.91 kW) and 15 ft·lbf (20 N·m) of torque over the Stage 3 Mustang, due to an upgraded ECM (Electronic Control Module). In addition, it is equipped with an upgraded appearance package.

Negative. Its a white hard top and he's not from the Essex area.

Mods in sig.
So whats the best way to launch the SRT. Full auto or auto stick starting in 2nd?

Never raced a Roush but GT's I kill everytime.

 

[StangSlayerMA]

I have a 2008 Roush Stage 3 BlackJack 430 hp, 15 more than the standard Stage 3. I have a Roush off-road axle back exhaust, Bassani X-pipe w/high flow cats, Toyo R888 D.O.T road race tires 275/305, 3.55 gears (stock), otherwise stock. I put down 359 rwhp and ran [email protected] in high DA.

Damn I thought the Rousch was close to 500hp guess thats the GT500? So these Rousch stangs are basicly GT's with a supercharger and a body kit? Just want to know in case I run him

Noooo, never start in 2nd. Autostick
into 1st and nail it.

Why is that? So auto stick the whole run?

It all depends on what engine you're talking about......The 4.6 Roush Stage 3 is 415/430 hp, the new 5.0 Roush Stage 3 is 540 hp.

When did the 5.0 come out? I think his is a 2007 or 08 so I'm assuming a 4.6?

 

[Texas SRT8]

I say you race him from a dig. Autostick, TC off, and punch it. No powerbraking.

2011.

Maybe I'll pick a fight next time I see him....to be continued

5.0 Roush came out in 2011, but there were very few supercharged ones.
With long tube headers, exhaust, 4.10 gears, CAI, pulley, tune, GT500 fuel system, upgraded intercooler, and some decent traction......mid-low 12's are possible.

Pretty much, your gonna give this guy a run for his money or down right take it. Then you can ride his ass about how an SUV gave him the business!
