But it all comes to the "run what your brung" theory.... if your goal is to be the fastest out there, it would make sence to get whatever parts you need to make that true. It's just common sence.... If you spend 10k on a V6 to get it in the 13's or if you spend 10K on a V8 to get it in the 11's or 10's.... bottom line, the V8 will win and the same amount of time and money has been spent.

No one is going to give you the same amount of praise if you started out with a pea shooter and turned it into a potato gun when someone else can make a rocketlauncher.

You missed my point in my last post. It's not about having the fastest car out there. This thread is about a v6 mustang that has 403rwhp. For a daily drivin street car, thats impressive for the car that it is. And by the way, it only took me 5 grand to get into the 13's reliably. So, what i paid for the car, plus the engine work costs alot less then a gt or cobra and still has the same performance level if not better. (COMMON SENSE ON MY BUDGET?)I don't know what kind of v6 guys you've talked to in the past, but the ones like me dont have the attitude that my car is the fastest thing on the road. I know the limits of my car, i know that 13 second e.t's are not neckbreaking speeds, it will never sound like a v8, but it does turn alot heads. Thats why i built my car, it's not everyday to see a v6 mustang of that caliber.

And something that took my attention in your last reply:

And i quote, "bottom line...the v8 will win and the same amount of time and money has been spent", end quote.


Yes and no. There's way to many vairables that come into play. If you've built any cars in your life, you know what i mean.
