I really can barely understand what your saying, I think you are racing a Turbo Coupe T-Bird with a stock 3.4?

Re: geting ready for a race in may the 4th
sounds to me like he wants some advice.I think he wants the v6 forum to give him some pointers on what he can do to his stock 3.4,so he can beat the tbird turbo

Re: geting ready for a race in may the 4th
It's misfiring at 4500 rpm? Or are you saying it's backfiring? I think you need to sort that out before you try to race anyone...

I also have 2? can you please use a lil bit better grammar so we can understand a bit better. also can you use periods so we know when a sentence is done? it makes it easier for us to understand what youre saying and help you.

The SC's made only 210 horses, on a good NA build you could probably reach that. BUT they also made 315 lb-ft, and reached their maximum torque at only 2600 RPM. In short, it's gonna take A LOT of work to beat one of those SC's!

Re: geting ready for a race in may the 4th
Better get that 175 shot back on there. That'll be your best bet without spending lots of money. Otherwise, hope he redlights then dont race him again. lol.

I think I speak for everyone here, Please use punctuation and grammar. That way we can understand what you are saying.

Re: geting ready for a race in may the 4th
You really need to do your own tuning with a speed density car. It will be difficult for someone to tune it properly over the internet. The cam you choose will play a big part in what you need to do with it, you can't change parts around as easily like you could with a maf system.
