Redfire 03, nice times, man! Are you going to line up your two cars at any point? I bet that would have a badass video!

Oh well, off to the tech sections to hang with the real gearheads.
You just came off a little cocky (and still are). Unit is one of the biggest "gearheads" here, I promise.

Injectors and a KB BAP can take you well into the 600 range.

How the hell are 39lb injectors going to get you to 600rwhp? Or do you mean at the crank?

I think he means adding injectors (60 lb) and BAP....

Yes, that was exactly what I meant. Add some 60's or bigger with a BAP and it will put it into the low 600 range. Of course most will say that is not the best way to go about it but it is a simple and cost effective setup. That is the benefit of having dual intank fuel pumps from the factory. I know there are better ways to go about it so before everyone wants to start talking about Fore hats and GT pumps please lets keep this thread on topic and not discussing the 03-04 Cobra fuel system.

Great runs OP. Everything that could have been said about the race and rematches has already been said so I have no contributions lol.

I am however reminded of a funny time about 4 years ago when my friends and I were ignorant of ported blower Cobras. A friend with an evo 8 with full bolt ons and 23 pounds on stock turbo had a race set up with a ported Cobra from a dig thinking he had it in the bag. The race was close until hitting 2nd gear and at that point my friend may as well have stood on the brakes, made a u turn and just gone home hahaha. That Cobra pulled him like a freight train on crack. Oh to know then what we know now.

^Thanks! LOL at the story, that's really the best way to learn about different cars' potential. The internet has taken alot of that away, as you pretty much have an idea of what every possible combination is going to run.

Thanks ScreaminRedZ, and yeah I thought about doing that with both cars. My Cobra off spray vs my SS on spray should be a close one!

So were those races with the cobra on a 75 shot or just blower? What did the cobra run at track before 75 shot?

130+MPH is scootin either way...very nice.
