Ported Pulleyed Cobra Vs 01 SS A4 *VIDS*
Cobra is an 03 with a 2.75 pulley, ported blower, tune, exhaust, and a few cooling mods, Ported TB, etc, etc. Was having a tune issue and leveling off at 5500 RPM, not dropping off, just wasn't building anymore power. Dyno sheet proves this that was done the day before.
01 SS is mine, (need to update my sig) with 3.73s, milled 243 heads, Lingenfelter GT11 Cam, Full exhaust, LID, FRA, ported TB, tuned, LCAs, and still on the stock stall.
Both cars on on street tires and shut down at 130 mph. Traction was bad for me in the SS, but once I hooked, well...watch and see.
Dig..
20 roll...
40 roll...
one more 40 roll with the camera man with me (165lb)...

The loud pop was his WOT box according to him. Backfires sometimes..scared the **** out of me both times, lol.
He figured out his tune issue and is getting it revised. He was maxing out around 430 RWHP and 4 something RWTQ. Should be able to edge me out or at least stay even now.
My 3rd pulled harder than him, but it looks like the ground gained by me was done mainly between his shifts...the bottle was just an old bottle he was trying to sale at mustang week.
Appreciate the comments guys!

He got the tune fixed. It was only making 430 RWHP at 5500 RPM and leveling off from there up. A ton more TQ than me as well, but anyway he said it's running much better now. I'm sitting right at 400 RWHP in 100 degree heat, he said he should be at 475 since its making power all the way to 6500 now...but he does have a good 300lbs on me and is a manual as well, so I don't see him putting 2 cars on me or anything, but should definitely creep away from me. My car gains a lot of ground back every time he shifts and my 3rd gear was actually pulling him pretty good during the runs I posted....so idk, just wish he wasn't back in Michigan (14 hours away) so we could run again and see what that Cobra can do with the retune. I'm going to hit the track as soon as the weather breaks, as is he, so at least we can compare traps to see who might do what if we ever got the chance to line up again.
Here is his dyno from this weekend..scroll about half way down the thread page, can't miss it.. http://mustangforums.com/forum/the-r...happen-10.html

Not as bad as you would think. The ice was melted in his reservoir, but it was still only about room temp after all 4 runs, and the blower was ok to lay your hand on without being uncomfortable (not that means anything regarding the IATs). He had everything iced down for a good 45 minutes before I got there.
