Race advise
So there is a Guy I know that is a major pain. He drives a 2004 v6 mustang. No mods. Well except flowmaster exhaust. He always says he would dust my car. I have a 2002 Monte Carlo ss intimidator. I have a K&N filter and a performance chip in my car. So who would win in about 1/8 mile race.I think I can take him just wanted some opinions.

I think you would probably win as well. My dad use to have a 03 mustang with the 3.8 L and I noticed a difference between that and my car
|
a performance chip.........:nono: what exactly does it do for your Monte....
|
Adds a little hp at a good price
|
What kind is it....?????
How much did you spend VS how much HP it gained? |
Its a hypertech chip it says it adds about 30 or 40 HP it cost me about 300 dollars
|
Where did you buy it?
|
You also have to consider FWD vs. RWD. Tire pressure, intake.....FAR too many variables to give a "WIN" to one or another.
Weight another factor. Montes weren't muscle cars, per se. Mustangs were, some would argue. Montes are a "classic muscle luxury car", were other Detroit cars were more specialized. It is, what it is. I have no doubt a properly tuned Monte would smoke a Mustang, but as the Rule goes....how fast is how much you want to spend. You can't make money without money, an same rule here: You can't make HP without money. Our Montes were more luxury than muscle. To me, personally, it doesn't matter. I love my Monte an the styling. It would be the same if I still had my old Countach. By todays standards, it is nothing, but it would be unique. I'm long since my years where I had to "have the fastest/bestest." So you get smoked in a race. How many times did he have to shell out crazy $$$ for a new clutch? Tires? Is it really THAT important? Who cares. I don't. Go ahead an spend so much money that your car is almost not even street legal, I'll go ahead an make mine unique, interesting, an reliable in any situation. |
Not to burst your bubble but that hyper tech is a complete waste. I started with one and quickly realized there useless. If you want anything like that buy a mail order tune from a shop that specializes in these cars.

i also would wanna know if you really gained anything with that perormance chip, most of the time those things are a waste
