i got a few bolt ons and a ran a cobra droptop and hardtop the droptop from a rollstart about 40 mph and beat that one then the hardtop tried to stay right on my *** when i hit it by 4th gear i was 5 cars ahead of him. why get a car with a blower when it cannot outrun a pretty much stock camaro all motor. gt500's run 12.4 bone stock with 500 horse. they are heavy and slow need an aftermarket blower or pulleys and whatnot. sloooooowwwwww

but i do have a question, how come you guys cant let these fools just live in blissful ignorance. like me, before i came here i didn't know what the hell a mach mustang was and really couldn't have cared. now i sometimes actually entertain the thought of buying a cobra. although I'd have to lock it in my garage if any male members of my family visited.

Because I hate ignorance. I'll knowledged ignorance (true definition) is one thing, but to be ignorant and act like you know everything...ut uh. I don't do well with that. Why?....because bread enough it makes things really bad on a broad scale. Case in point.......street racing was around for decades, once the import/ricer scene came on board with the young ignorant know it alls, now people get pulled over for loud exhaust and yadda yadda. It all has to do with ignorance and know it alls.

won't be banning you for setting somebody straight Mike, just careful on how you do it



jester, I usually do leave these people alone. There are many people I could easily get into it with on here that I just skim over and keep reading.

Here is what happens between a bolt-on, 100 shot Camaro vs Pullied Cobra

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbLIphf1yg0

This is what happens when the two cars raced again. The Cobra has a porter blower, and the Camaro has heads and cam. torquer v3 I think.

in those 2 videos the cobra had different pulleys. the first one posted had a 2.8 and the second had a 2.65, maybe that made the difference between being totally owned in the first and being pretty close in the last post. i don't know jack about cobras except what I've learned on here (and getting powned by pony) so I'm just guessing

It's all good man......as long as people learn. That's the point.

I did get a chuckly outta that.

And to answer your inquiry...yes, a smaller pulley = more boost = more power.
