Borla but I had it uncapped. The new owner capped it up straight through the muffler. I'm sure he was down about 20hp plus the last time I had it at the track I took timming out of it and never bumped it back up. The car needs a re-tune and the exhaust uncapped. That's up the the new owner though. The next race I'm driving with the above done.

If it runs that much faster w/o a exhaust i would never ever use one. It made 100 xtra hp after that. You pulled on him like crazy. GJ

We live at 5,600' elevation. Those are corrected numbers for sea level. At this altitude the car I sold made 413rwhp and the cobra I think made 480 to 490rwhp. Hard to make power this high up.

I haven't been on for a while. Thought I'd bring this video back to life. Wish I still had the car.
