As I understand it, it's "RoughLY" a 50hp knock off of the cobras numbers going against an lsx. A 228 with alot of lift and maybe some magic stock heads could theoretically put down 40x with the right tune. I don't see that pulling on a sub 500rw cobra though. Possibly with weight reduction and tall gear on the ls1 it's plausible. Anthing can happen on the street.

I have pulled on two and tied one so far. Here is a vid on me pulling on an 03 cobra with an intake, pulley, exhaust, heat exchanger mod, and tune. My mods are in sig.
