Wink How much nitrous to beat an '03 Cobra? :)

So... what kinda nitrous set-up would a bolt-on LT1 needs to outrun an '03 Cobra? Hehe.... We know with exhaust & pulley they are gonna be 400-420rwhp

I'm betting there will be some high 11's out of bolt-on Cobras, if not faster....

Damn. I have lots of parts to buy.

I'd expect closer to 10s w/ Bolt-Ons being possible once the aftermarket gets a handle on that car. Forced Air cars are so easy to make cook its not funny.

Anywho, For a stockish one I'd expect a 100-150 shot should put ya where ya need to be, depending on surrounding modifications.

I'd expect a mild, Exhaust and pulley car to run 11s (On the right day with the right driver). A Stock one in good air and the right driver just may see some Low 12s. I'm waiting to see Evan Smith behind the wheel of one.....

Cool

I don't fear any cobra. I raced a vortech supercharged mustang gt and beat the **** out of him on motor. he was running 6 psi. how much boost does a stock 03 cobra push? anyway, i have a 125 shot that i havent had to use all summer. i say mustangs suck, and big deal, they have a blower on them. so get a vortech g-trim on a z28 for less money and lets see who wins. i know id kill one right now...

gonna need a 100shot with some bolt ons. i would figure you will need atleast 400 to the wheels to beat em...

i would say 150 w/o many bolt ons, but i would do some tuning and fuel issues before i would run that much and plan on using it more than once a month.

If its for money...I wouldnt go after one with less than a 150 shot if you only have bolt ons....a 125 might get it done , but I would want to be sure. Good driver and a 150 shot.

Just find a Viper to practice with, then go slap that 03 Cobra around.
