Ran a local guy's 99 Cobra 5 speed with exhaust, tuned. Car put down 300-305rwhp.
I thought with my mods I would be around 310-315. On the intake side i'm still stock and I haven't been tuned after my exhaust so there is power left on the table.
Well I didn't heat my Nittos nor did I launch the car (kinda rolled into it) but after he got a 2 car jump on me I was still able to catch him in 2nd gear. By 110 I had pulled about 4 cars away from him.
I must be making a little more power than I thought. It felt pretty good. There will be much more to come...:cool:

That's insane car man. Did you ever do a actual track test of 1/4 mile, and 0-60?:)

not bad, all I would do is throw on a Piar of Old Shcool Cherry BombS, or a chambered Exhaust, now that would sound kickass

The exhaust right now consists of longtube headers into a 3" X-Pipe, into Dynomax Bullets dumped before the axle.

Nope, the car is not ready yet. There is much more to come :cool:

Yup I remember you talking about it before. I've only had this car since late August so it's still a work in progress.
