This is my opinion, Slobra needs to get more acquainted to his car to see the real potential. He raced Packy last week and granted Packy has a coupe with a Drag Pak, it should of been a little closer considering the circumstances.

I think the Black Cobra probably makes between 490-510 on a conservative dyno, it's just he is using all the power and getting it to stick to the street. The GTO is making good power, but is having to drag the extra weight and then trying to get it to hook on a 275 with a factory suspension.

Just my take on it :)

I agree with you fully.

I will openly admit 100% that I am not used to having this much power. Whether it's me shifting too early or the tires spinning yadyadya I think I just need some more seat time. I went from a 99 Cobra with 280HP to an 03 with 550+HP. I did let out with Packy after he put a car on me but he beat me fair and square. Give me some time with my 17's and R888's when I get them and I will be happy to go out and get a few runs in.

P.S. I'm 03Slobra on another forum.

First that must be tuned on e85 not 93. Second that is a very generous dyno. If I recall those would be some of the highest ported blower numbers to date. Timspony was tuned on ethanol and barely made those numbers. Ande it makes no sense how a ported blower walks your friend and your kenne bell barely hangs. And on 15lb that isn't a mid five horsepower cobra. You need to do a little research on ported blower cars. Here are some most making around 500. No way a similar car on pump is going to make 70 more horsepower. E85 full bolt on may be around mid fives depending on the dyno of course. http://www.svtperformance.com/forum...minator-pictures-mods-dyno-number-thread.html

Agreed.

Damn what happened to this thread? The race is over and you guys are argueing about dyno numbers. All I know is that both Cobra's I raced were fast. 1 lost by half a car and 1 won by half a car.

This is the dilema. The car with equal or less HP out ran you, the car with much more power got beat? KB cobra's are no joke and in THEORY should've put cars/trucks on ya. But on the street anything can and will happen.
