I agree, I wouldn't worry too much about the numbers either man honestly, All dyno's are different. But a dyno tune will greatly help you!

Sounds about right to me, It will be a close race.

A 99 cobra wil darn near trap 106 bone stock.
They are pretty damn close as far as performance goes though... The 99/01 have a little more hp but they weigh more than the 96-98 mainly due to irs. I run dead even with my buddies mach 1 that has the exact same mods as I have

I'm gonna call driver error on that one... a Mach 1 should destroy a '96-'01 Cobra with the same mods.

what's the difference between a 95 cobra and 96-01 cobra? reason I ask is my buddy had a 95 cobra w/lt's and I would put bus lengths on him. He ran 14's at the strip. my numbers in my sig.

The difference is about 65hp. The '95 Cobra had a 240hp 5.0 while '96 brought the 305hp 4.6L V8.

okay, for starters we raced about 50ish to around 85-90. we will get a better vid with a longer race when we get a chance. How do I need driver mod? If i was to drop a gear I would of been around 4500 rpms. Remember I am untuned and I have a 2" cherrybomb... yes I know say no more. Its the only thing I had laying around. Need to get something different asap!

^^ rpm is why you needed to have dropped a gear... drop a gear and get the motor more in its power range.

My only point was they are different and start out a few tenths difference generally in 1320.

and.......you can hang iwth your buddy and he has the exact same mods and both of you are tuned?..... UH....what?
