I don't know his dyno numbers though. I was guessing 650ish, maybe more.
Nothing exotic? I made 650rwhp in my old 03 Cobra on pump gas with a 2.2KB(again, trapped 130mph in the 1/4 mile in a full weight vert). I would imagine if he has a maximized setup, he would be pushing more than that with a 2.8KB. Sorry, not trying to be an ***, but I think anytime someone is pushing at or more than 650rwhp on pump gas on a little 281ci motor, that's pretty impressive. Good luck with the race and let us know how it turns out. Video would be nice!

With as much power as you're making in a A4 ... I say 100 shot and that's all you'll need to beat him. Right now, your sig shows you should be about a 11.6-11.9 car, depending on your weight ... good track conditions and MT street drag radials. 100 shot should put you right at about flat 11's ... high 10's with a little weight reduction. It'll be a helluva good race for sure. I'd go 150 shot for insurance ... this guy may have more motor than you think. Here's a better-than-average KB2.8 Cobra run ... at least from what I've seen.

Thanks man, I saw that vid before, It's a good one. The KB was out on him 2 cars or so. I think the KB must be in the low 130 trap range. I figured I would trap around 130ish on a 150 shot, maybe a lil more on the 200. Does this sound resonable?

My 99 SS h/c full bolt on had a 150shot. I have a 2.8KB Cobra solid rear. You will need a 200+. My .02, good luck.
