Arrow 03 Cobra vs 97 Formula

I finally got to see how I stood up against a modded 03-04 Cobra. Damn I need that 150 shot plate kit

Also I forgot to mention my car is a stripper car and weighed in at 3450 with me (180) and almost a full tank of gas so I'm probably at least a few hundred pounds lighter than the Cobra.

is his blower ported cause I really dont see him making that much power unless it has a port..ohhh and a 150 shot is going to be more than enough to take him out

It could be if the blower is ported.

s/c stang - Yeah I know the 150 shot will be plenty to handle it.

I'm just going by what he told me. He said was pretty damn sure that he is over 520/500 at the wheels. No idea on if it is a ported blower or not, he didn't mention it.

I pulled a ported eaton cobra the other night with my 150 shot up until i had to go into 5th and my clutch is jacked up and i cant go into 5th. I kept a good half car on him the whole way though.

Duran - I'm not sure, he didn't say it was

Bizz - Need money first and I have to pick prostars/slicks or plate kit first

Sil3nt - It was in Mexico, can't you read? Nah it was in SA

69 - With a 150 I would expect to pull him pretty well

What a coincidence...I have an ESTIMATED 530 rwhp on my car too. Unfortunately, it's all stock. haha jk. If yours was dyno'd and you know those numbers are right, I don't see how he beats you by that little with 530 rw.

Your not that far away, propably a 75 shot would cover him!
