how much difference is there between the 02 civic ex and 02 mustang gt. i know the mustang's engine specs and everything, but i dont know how much the weight (or whatever else) somewhat evens out the competition.

just curious.

thanx

There is a big difference, and the GT will smoke an '02 EX.

* The "v6" above is a fatty typo - of course I meant v8. I'm referring to the P42.140A, which is the GT.

No, there's not a V6 GT. I posted the specs for each of the engines for curosities sake.

Did this question really get asked? *pinches self*
Mustang = Muscle Car
Civic = Econobox

Nuff said.

Usually if it has a single exhaust it is a V6, but not always. ;)

You prolly raced a SN95 Mustang (94-98). They have a 150 hp (used to have one). Weight kills them... and all single exhaust mustangs are v6's.

i think he was trying to ask what's the hp/weight ratio of both cars but couldn't find the words.*shrug* 1/4 times speak for themselves...

blie, you have a dyno sheet for ur wrx?... i find it hard to imagine that a wrx can get so much hp with so little mods considering awd loses lots of hp through the drivetrain.

Yes the price can even out the competition real fast. You take that extra almost 8200$, put a B-series motor in the civc, turbos and short throw shifter and line them up again and see who wins.

actualy ive seen a black WRX running those times at the track with exaust, downpipe, turbo intake, IC piping and a manual boost controller.. so i dont doubt it.
