Yeah but he has done nothing to the car really yet , full stock exhaust and because its an 04 its even more restrictive than the 03's were . . . plus it will pass aircare with ease. I think these new cobras are pretty freaking cool .

Gotta give propps when there due

uhm Roots blowers are very inneficient, but they make great torque at low RPM which is why they are used on production cars. Once you get up to 12 PSI+ they blow hot air, just like when you run try to up the boost on a stock sized turbo on other cars.

I dont see why you guys would diss his numbers when they are right in line with other Cobras with similar mods. That Eaton just cant do any better in stock form and there is nothing he can do about it except switch to a Kenne Belle or Procharger setup

okay i found out the mods for it:

Main mods; FLP headers, pulley, forged rods and pistons, stock heads/cam, 42lb injectors, 255 intank walbro, 3500 stall, tranny upgrades.

i thought it was ported heads but i was wrong, kits at 5 psi.

NA my ***, try a shot of nitrous ( i think), you were on slicks and skinnies though and had some major wieght reduction as well as hals.

but then again you do claim a 11.4 at 119 mph NA

ur on crak buddy

my 117 mph run was NA .. didnt even have a bottle back then ..

get ur conspirecy straight before u start dishin it out
weight advantage ?? forgettin somethin here ?? Street twin, custom 3" STEEL driveshaft, 5 point cage, 12 bolt ??

GET OFF DA PIPE

and the 11.4 run .. i always said it was half nitrous half NA .. do the math buddy, 150 hp shot doesnt just add 2 mph

get hooked on phonics ********, i said "i think" and even if it was NA, you did have slicks and skinnys, skinnies up front will aid in increasing your MPH.

street twin, cage and 12 bolt boohoo the added wieght of the fly wheel helps you while shifting, your 12 bolt had atleast 3.73s, and the cage helps in weight transfer. you had no sway bar, no rear seats and a drag suspension, this guys doing it on street suspension.

117 mph on a auto is pretty damn impressive.

and if your run was half nitrous why dont you add that to your sig instead of bragging about a NA run

so basicaly the car has headers , pulley and a stall. Headers on the sts turbo car arent really a benifit from what ive seen so its basicaly got a pulley and a stall with 5# of boost. pretty impressive imo .
