How fast are camaro/bird v6's?
I am just curious I used to have a 95' Mustang V6 3.8L (put out a thunderous 145HP and 215 Torque), then sold that car for my current formula.
I know that the camaro 3.8's put out like 200hp which is pretty decent. How fast are they in comparison to the 1999+ Mustang V6's which put out 190HP and I duno the torque, or any other vehicles for that matter.

99+ V6 Stangs aren't too bad though stock for stock, we own 'em. Unless they are driving an M5 and the f-body is an A4 who doesn't know how to launch...then its a coin toss.
Good thing you got rid of that '95 though...woof, talk about a dog.

I think that since the GTP guys started going fast there are TONS of 3800 parts on the market, and there are more every day.
