Default This isnt another one of those "Sc400 vs Blah who would win" type of things.

Okay guys im sorry if im posting this in the wrong spot. But Im new to the posting thing. A buddy an I are at a complete loss. I own a 92 sc400 with only BFI, Custom exhaust, and a cut anti squat wire. So i have read every where that most of our cars dyno stock at 170-190ish and with what i have i should be at maybe 200 whp correct?? Now my buddy has a 2013 v6 mustang with a mpt tune and exhaust. Stock they get about 230 at the wheels i believe. with similar setups we have seen them dyno between 250-270 depending mainly on where they are located. Now his mustang has a 6 speed automatic, so it should shift and rev more quickly through out the rpms.. We have 4.. and from a 60 pull were about dead even his car wins but just by the nose like barely even that.. I really just want to know how this is possibe.. because his car is lighter and is just about has as much areo... I just dont get it all.

I've read the 305 hp V6 was a beast. He's maybe loosing hp on the high end from the exhaust and mpt tune if not tuned properly.

In racing, hp doesn't mean squat. Put the cars to the real test and find out.

We have raced each other lots of times. And like I stated above we are basically dead even. I just dont really understand how its all possible. Being that we weigh about the same.
