I'd imagine that you could. While the ratings on the V6's between the two cars aren't that different, but the Mustang has a pretty decent weight advantage over the Challenger, I believe around 600 lbs or more. A better power/weight ratio usually means a faster car, but driver skill will still play a large roll.

No you can't. You're gonna get your *** handed to you.
But does it really matter in a V6?

There are other sites but none that ive seen with the bama tune. Amazon has the CAI for 249 shipped plus the $50 mail in rebate so $200 for a cai is a steal.

I went up against one that turned out to be a v6 with RT badges. I was just curious to see how I'd hang. Plus he started it.

Long story short: I Hope he enjoyed the full rear view of the new spoiler. Your friend will enjoy the view of your cars rear end as well.
