Just got my Stillen intake and im gonna install it Saturday. I went through the search and looks like ill get about 4 hp. I also looked up races of type Rs. I got a 95SE 5sp do I have a chance and yes my friend can drive. He says he beat a 98 Mustang GT . He says hes gonna walk me like im standing still . Is this true cause we got a little bet going.

Race from a roll, like from 2000 rpm in 3rd gear!

long time ago i kept up with my friends new type r.. im talking long time ago.. when i had just intake.. course he was stock.. but umm never hurts to try you know

98MAX

I dont know man. Ive seen stock type r's go 14.7 stock. Remember they have about the same hp you have and weigh 500lbs less than you witch makes up for not having any torque. It should be a good race. Good luck.

True but they make their torque much higher in the rpm range. But they do have pretty short gears. Okay race up a hill then. hehe. I'm just trying to help here! LOL

i know the type r got mad top end will my intake help keep up cause i know it adds top end

98MAX

It's just going to be real close man. I am not a honda fan but the type rs are pretty "quick" Is this going to be a drag race or a race on the highway?

tgonza1057

were gonna do both my friends gonna flag us and also there is a red light going to a three lane highway no cops will both be close cause the max aint no joke on the highway

tgonza1057

i though that was a bunch of bull ****** cause he doesnt have any mods

you should have got the y-pipe then you should kill him

i donno man, the stocks type r (if its a 98 - 2001) run to 195 hp & they are lighter than the max by alot. I also think that a y pipe could help you in this position & a K&n filter. But still, kick some integra ***

Those ITRs have mad highway kicks dude. They are definitly no slouch in that area. I think you have a tough race on your hands. I think if he shifts perfectly and you shift perfectly, he'll win... but anything can happen in a race

If you don't jump out to a 2 car lead from 0-30mph like you should with your torque advantage, he's gonna walk you after 70mph. From personal experience, a Maxima 5 speed with just an intake doesn't have much topend. Once you get a y-pipe and B-pipe, the Maxima pulls dramatically harder in the topend. You'll need atleast all these mods to stand a chance against a well driven Type R. Has your buddy ever taken his car to the track? Everyone thinks they are John Force until they get their first timeslip. Hell, I thought I was good until I got my first timeslip of a 15.6@90mph. With no other power mods added and 30 passes down the track, I'm running 14.7@94mph. Hmmmmmm.....

BTW, I've run 3 Type Rs so far and I haven't been able to "walk" them. I do have one run from the track on tape with me beating a yellow ITR with a 15.1 to his 15.2.
