Default new mods, new kills

Finally got to get some good runs in after the new mods. 3 total runs against an 03 cobra. He said he had only a pulley, intake, and mt et streets. First off we had our passengers in the car and went from 40-120. He got the jump after I honked. Spun in second, got traction and reeled him in. By the middle of third ihe was at my bumper, slammed in fourth and ended up with 3-4 car lengths. Next we ran it twice from a 20 roll. No dig because I couldn't hook for **** with these toyos. I had to peddle 1st and second but once I hit third I just started pulling away. Again about 3-4 lenghts. Cool guy we all left after that. I thought I would've pulled him harder but maybe he had some other mods he didn't tell me about. Oh well good times.

This clutch works really well, hooks great and drives silky smooth. I had a spec 3 before my mods and I hated it.

I've heard that from everyone that i know that's had a spec. I've been leaning toward the LS7 or Textralia. LS7 seems like it would be a better DD clutch w/ a longer life.

I highly recommend the ls7. Yeah its heavy, but I drive mine everyday and traffic is no problem. I believe it holds power up to 550-600, but I clould be wrong.

Nah that ain't my car. Not yet at least. I gave the sig creater free rein on that one. Just picked this car up in January. The only thing i've done to it so far is LT's, ORY, Daul/Dual, Lid, Maf ends, LCA's, PHB, tunnel brace, STB, TT II's 17x 9.5/11, and short stick.
Now times yet, LACR closed. So no 1/4 mile track around here anymore.
Base dyno stock was 316hp/325tq. No new numbers yet. That will wait for the Torquer V.2, home ported heads, 4.10's and LS6 intake w/ ported TB.

Good kill and those are very good numbers for a relatively mild cam such as yours. Probably a bit of a sleeper, huh?

How much power does an intake, pullied, exhaust cobra make to the ground? Thanks for the props guys, it would be a sleeper if I didn't have the lm and no cats.
