Definitely swapped in a solid axle too...no way the IRS would hold up with that Power/Torque.

I have to say...people on here can hate on the 03' Cobra all they like...but that's damned impressive...and even moreso for a car that's only been out for year.

doubt its internal work b/c those things come to suport a whole lot of boost. They come stock with Je pistons and H-beam rods, and the always forged cobra crank. IT did sound like some aftermarket cams, unless that was a car around the camera. Had to be a c4 and probably an 8.8 conversion, luanched like a standard but no shift movment.. Thought about doing this but, 35,000 grand for a car ontop of all the mods just isnt right for me right now.

There was a mean sounding cammed car hangin' in the background. It was still rumbling after the Cobra made it down the track.

Hey, did it sound like he hit the rev limiter in that launch?

Anyone know how much spray it took to get him that fast?

Amazing vid. Thanks for posting it up.

it is a 75 shot i believe. He topped out the dyno on torque.

the guy drives the car as much as possible on the street. You will see it if you live on houston on the road. People need to believe that we dominate with some SERIOUS street cars. it was built by strictly performance. it is a C4 with a ford nine inch. hp is in then high 800 rwhp but they are on the search for more powah!

they are trying to see how high they can go before the stock bottome end goes out. but yes, stock internal motor completely!
