Where did he get one for 75 bucks? I'd go for one of those for 75 bucks for sure!
PS... I have seen a Pulley/DR 03 Cobra run 11's... repeatedly. This car had less than 5k on the clock, and is probably considerably faster now. Guess it just depends how soon you are willing to blow your motor to get into the 11's with those blue ovals

He bought it on Ebay. Somebody had wrecked a 2001 Trans Am and was piecing it out. He listed it as an LS1 intake. My son emailed him and verified that it was the stock intake from his 2001 Trans Am. Since my son knew all LS1s that year came with the LS6 intakes he made sure he won the auction. He bought it for $60 and paid $15 for shipping. He was very lucky!

That's what I'm hoping for anyway.

OK this guy has an M6 so he cant get a torque converter....
And I have seen a a stock 03 cobra run a 11.9.....it can be done.
And for 12's all you need is a set of long tube headers and your there. Along with the accessories: y-pipe and exhaust. So in other words, full exhaust and your there.
On my 98 T/A i have an LS6 intake, flowmaster exhaust (i know) a new MAF a new throttle body, and mid length headers and i ran a 12.5

i dont know what you saw running 11.9 stock but it was no 03 cobra.thats stock z06 territory and it just isnt happening.there just isnt enough power and tire for them to hit 11s unmodded.it wont take much for them to hit 11s but itll never happen stock.what you saw wasnt a stock car.

I ran 13.7 totally stock and my first time at a track in my life, and a best of 13.2 with very simple mods, mostly free, so I would say that are cars take better to mods then the cobras. But like with any car it all depends on the person behind the wheel.

Hey man I just know what I seen at the track, so judging by that I think the guys on the board didnt lie. I was talking to a guy at work and his best friend has a cobra and stock he was stuck at 12.9 all summer, since than he done some mods, guy at work thinks it was just a pulley, drag radials and new exaust, and he now hit 11.8, in the fall. cant wait til this summer.
