On another note today is annual kill a Mustang day. You must at least one time today find a respectable Mustang and send it into the rearview mirror.

Ineligible cars are pre PI GT's and V6's any year....enjoy

Well maybe it wa red then but it was an 01 cause it said COBRA on the rear bumper but it didnt have the black part so it wasnt a termi.

Okay guys I didnt have the car dynoed the previous owner did. did 286 with Headers and true duals dumped under the cab, and a lightweight flywheel, and spec 3. At the time it was throwin all kind of codes, and had a torn intake elbow, wait I forgot the MAF was descreened and ported.

Since then I have done a tune, ELbow, K&N intake, gears, and CsR Waterpump


Havent had it redynoed though.

Oh and to the blue mach 1 earlier. It is very much posible, and true. Shoulda bought some GM muscle buddy.

For somebody who claims they beat the Cobra, you sure spent alot of time studying the rear end!

I'd have a real hard time describing the back end of a Camaro.

2. Your 286 RWHP of fury even with a great driver most likely did not beat a Terminator Cobra.
Laser Red was available on the 01 Cobra. So it is very possible that he was racing a Cobra, just not an 03-04.

That may have been the case in the 99s, But I know that the 01s came in Laser Red (burgandy), Silver, True Blue, and Mineral Grey.

A STOCK 96-01 Cobra is easy prey on the street. Without a set of gears, they are driving on a missmatched combonation from the factory. Catch one in too low of an RPM range and its over.
Most losses in an N/A Cobra are due to a shitty *** driver and not having enough gear.

I expect him not to be stupid and be all proud of beating Stock LT1s when he has a damn H/C/I car, and not join a GM performance site just to stir hit up. Personally Id be ashamed if I had to do all that to run with a stock SLOW LT1!

Okay first you shouldnt come over on a GM site to talk hit when you dont know your ****. An LT1 is a 350.

Second what do you make off the juice. Like 328rwhp. Haha thats nit aolt more power. Mine made 286 untuned without, gears, intake, elbow, EWP. All that has to equate to alteast 300rwhp. So you dont make alot more, you make maybe 30rwhp, oh wow watch out.

Didnt you say that car has AFRs, kinda sad with good heads you can barely make more than a bolt on LT1.

You need to quit bein a dumbass.
