Welcome bro, your cobra makes some pretty impressive numbers (as much as I hate to say that) I'm from the south suburbs even though I go to school at the U of I. My buddy has a wicked ws6 he would love to run. Mine is a simple ls6 conversion with the standard bolt on's =/ . What part of Chi Town are you from?

Oh and that camaro of yours sounds pretty sick too haha, same color scheme as mine!

I have had the cobra for about five years now and bought it out in Huntley IL
Cobra comes out once in a while as you can tell by the miles on it
