Yeah I have no idea how this happens with the mods posted. Does weight reduction like a gutted interior count as a bolt on? Or maybe severe traction issues for the cobras?

the trans am does not have nitrous..it is full interior, i can make another more in depth vid of the car itself if you guys would like and possibly see if i can get a dyno video as well...at the most recent dyno event the black cobra made 620+ with a 50shot and 500 something on motor, the yellow dyno'd best of 499

If it had gears or a bottle it would make more sense. Nice runs either way!!

Lets say he even had 4.10's (which I still dont know) would they really help him keep up or even beat those 500rwhp Terminators? Full Bolt On+4.10's?

Also If you take a look at the comments posted in that video link sent up in the first post, the owner of that WS6 stated in his comments that he made nearly 400rwtq (398 to be specific) just by having a lid and full exhaust.....are these kind of torque numbers possible with such little mods?
