Oops! my bad..
Prob can still smoke it, cams don't even compare to Mustangs.
Take for example - my old stock '04 3.9L beat a 2011 cam rs with insane intake, tuned, dual exhaust, everything. He was so embarrassed he bought a 6.2 LS1 the next day..

you will need a blower at least.
Or just trade it in for a 2012 GT or Boss.

And you two weigh the same. They average 5.0 owner will run 12.5-13.2. Same goes for camaro's. I have seen some stock ones run 12.6-12.7 all day.
You will need full bolt ons and gears to beat a stock one.

| Even though my mustang is an auto. Can I still get gears? If so what r the best gears to get. I kind of want my mpg to stay the same

get a 3600 at least stall and 4.10 gears. That will be enough to drop least .6-.8 or more off your 1/4 mile. Of course you will want some tires. Also if don't have the cash for a blower there is always a Wet Plate kit.

BUt will lose maybe 1-2mpg with the stall and gears.

I think it's normal because the car is fast but I guess not Lol. At the moment I'm running stock & my mpg is better & I'm basically driving the same. If i had my JlT CAI with the tune I would lose alot more.

I honestly think running 3.73 gears with a Saleen extreme cold air intake and some long tube headers with a tune will give you a great sound and give you the power you want, their is so many things you can do but I would try that and go from there!

LMNO,
I have CAI, throtle body, Axel backs, pulleys, and a Bama Tune on my '10 and it's pretty "quick"! I have TORCHED the Camaro's RS and actually took a SS stop light to stop ligh a few times, but it is more the driver than car, because if we would have a longer distance, they would have gotten me! LOL
Anyway, I'm looking at buying a '13 GT500 so I am enjoying my '10 until then...

Ben | You know if the Caamro said RS it was a V6 right? The RS is just a package. You can get it on the V6 and the SS. If on the SS the badges will be orange. If on the V6 it will just say RS..
Nothing but rims/ground effects/and halo's really.
Wife sells them..haha...I looked at them when got rid of teh G8. But after driving it and the 5.0 there was no way I would get the SS. Now if the GT was still a slow 4.6 I would have got the SS in a heartbeat.

Well I have a Saleen supercharger with a lot of extra goodies and I had a camaro ss get on it behind me and let him get to my door and I floored it and he never passed me and I walked so hard I bet he cried that night so if you have the means just supercharge it and if you don't have the money just gears, air and exhaust with a good tune will make you happy!

Yea, I'm aware that the RS Camaro is a 6 banger, and the SS with orange is the V8...
In my area, there are tons of RS, and a few SS, and everytime I take my "Garage Queen" out, some person in a RS or SS needs to "show" what they have! LOL A few weeks ago while on Route 50 headed towards Anaapolis, MD a couple of young men in a very sweet black RS pulled beside my wife and I, and rolled down the window laughing. My wife asked me if our car could "keep" up with them. I said lets find out...
Not knowing it was a RS or SS at the time, I figured I had nothing to lose, I'm "only" driving a "slow" 2010 GT, the bastard child of the 5.0, GT500, or the Boss 302! LOL
The young men took off just a bit ahead of me (that's when I saw it was a RS), with me down shifting to 3rd, redlining my GT and BLEW BY them at 115mph! After pulling away about 5 car lengths ( I slowed at 125), and fearing that my fellow LEO guys may lock me up for wreckless driving and speed, I broke it down.
When the young men pulled beside us (they were very cool guys) they waved started laughing and yelled, "nice blower in that sleeper"! My wife rolled down the (tinted) window, (grey hair and all) and waved back! They looked stunned when they saw two middle aged folks in the Stang!!! We waved back and took the Riva Road exit and went to Nordstroms...LOL
My asked me what was a "blower" and I said, I'm not sure, I know we don't have one! LOL (of course I know what a blower is, but I'm looking at putting a Roush M90 in this car and I don't want her thinking I'm hot rodding all day! LOL)
I will tell you my SS story later...
Ben

Never had problems beating 2010 ss camero's. Its the 2011 - 2012 camero's that are a little quicker. A super charger would put you over the hump though.

Stock 2010 gt premium trackpac. I have yet to add any mods, not sure what I want to do at this point. It is brand new with only about 800 miles on it. I have thought realy hard about turning it into a roush 427. Cost is a little steep at a little over $10,000 from the ford dealer. I love the car it is quick and fun to drive. It is not a daily drive so I am still pondering options. You are right it is more the driver's ability than anything else.

I think the mustang has the weight advantage and the rear end helps a little. I suspect your mustang would do well against most any camero. How has the cia, tune and everything else youv done increased since it was stock? I am only guessing but you would likely be aroud 350hp maybe more with your mods. I think in a longer than 1/4 mile a camero ss might pull ahead, but I don't know. I havn't looked at your profile but do you have pics of your 2010?

| It was an easy install. As long as u follow the directions. The biggest concern is when you have to rotate your pawersteering fluid 180 degrees. The directions tell u to do it because the CAI won't fit. 3 weeks after I installed it my powersteering went out & good thing I was only a mile away from home. I installed the stock intake & later I came to figure that it was the powersteering hose that got pinched. I now ziptied the main whose to a piece of metal I'n my engine & it allows excellent flow.

When you ordered the intake did it specify 2010? I waited a while into 2010 to get my JLT. It's carbon fiber but it has a different curve to it. I'll post a pic so you can see the difference.

Your car is not faster then a Camaro SS. Weight advantage you have slightly. Not by much. Look it up. Not to mention the gear advantage isn't much either. You have 3.73's. If it is a manual SS they have 3.45's. They also have 110hp and 120tq more. Facts are fcats. They run anywhere from mid 12's to high 12's. BONE STOCK. Your 2010 GT runs mid 13's to high 13's if you are a good.
I hate when people are just nut swingers. Oh I have a mustang/camaro blah blah I win cause it is best bull****.
If you beat one or two yeah happy for you. BUt it will not happen often. You raced a person that could not drive there car or wasn't actually racing you.

I agree, the numbers don't lie. A lot just depends on the driver and his or her abilities. When you look at it they are close enough that the driver can make a difference. No question the Camero has more hp and is quicker by a small margin.

| I've seen some get taken at the dragstrip but the driver made all the difference...... On the road coarse is a different story though, the track pack comes in just ahead of the SS even with the power difference.
