What type of race? Dig? Roll? You'll obviously take him on top end.

If you have 2.73 gears they're gonna hold ya back a bit.

Define full bolt-ons.

You will likely be raped from a roll and he likely does have a pulley. A dig race will come down to driver capability.

BTW, you posted this in the wrong section.

IF he has any sort of a pulley he will win. If he really just has bolt ons (like such a cobra exists haha) then it will be a good race, but i think he will take you then still.

I have lt's/ 3in xpipe, exhaust, vararam, ls2 tb, ported fast 92, and probably from a 30-40 roll, i have 2.73's so from a 40 i can keep it in 1st and he will be in 2nd so that might give me an advantage.

A bolt on 03-04 cobra (cai, exhaust, tune) will make around 415-420rwhp, that's really all the bolt on's they'll do, unless they pulley it then you get into throttle bodies, fuel upgrades, and ported blowers, which will make around 500/500 with a good port, add Long tubes in there and you could see 525/525, with very good tune, and very aggresive port.

my buddy made 475 with a pulley, long tubes, cai and twin disc. blowers never been off the car. with smaller pulleys and a mild port hell be 535+ easy. thats good for mid 120s in the 1/4.
