As the headline says I watched an 03 Cobra dyno at Agostino's. First pull all stock 368rwhp 375 tq:bow:
Second pull intake silencer and filter removed,387 rwhp 388tq:eek:
This car is bone stock! These are sae corrected,they were higher uncorrected! because of air quality!
My #'s went down 8 hp to 269rwhp and 295 tq she took a drop of 23 lb ft.
I have an ignition problem:( wires,coil,module,MSD box? or plugs.
I have new NGK TR55's to put in tommorow.
I also have a header leak at #8.
Time to get this pig sorted out!
:(
i'm not up on my ford stats, but where are the allmighty cobras at now? does this mean they will finally be able to be close enough to a stock f-body to at least see the rear lights :D
seems like most all newer stangs at the track are dog slow-like a 14.99 is a unreachable e.t. for them to get. maybe i just dont pay attention either, just a observation!
i recently had a wierd MSD problem (6al). on the street it was fine, but at the track it totally crapped out once i hit higher rpms. the higher i ran it the worse it got. acted like a very bad mis-fire, the it would go away after 30 minutes. i tossed the msd out and put a borrowed holley box in and all was fine.
dont know if that helps or not, just a thought!

The 03 Cobra is rated at 385hp 390tq at the flywheel!
This car put down those #'s at the rear wheels with no mods! :eek:
Most magazines are getting high 12's and some mid 12's fom a Hardtop.
I am not a big Mustang fan but I have to respect that,being a car guy. My LT1 will need a nice Blue bottle to run those #'s(parts on the way)
If GM would have gave us Fbody guys the LS6 as a parting gift it would have been a better send off.
The only Stangs I have seen run high 14's are the 94-98 M5 hardtops and the 99 and up Verts and AOD cars.
The 99 and up GT's with a M5 run high 13's to low 14's unmodded.
This is LT1 territory, for $10,000 less Canadian $
For $10g you could bolt on enough sh*t to run 11's
I can't believe I am sticking up for Mustangs
;)
They must have brainwashed me today!;) LMAO
