I just bought a 03 manual cobra, 2.7 pulley, tune, cold air intake, 3in exhaust, x pipe, dynoed 460hp and 475 lbs tq. vs a stock 09 z06 6 speed?

also i got this race lined up with a 08? 09? dodge charger with the 6.1 hemi manual stock as well.

I want to install gears 4:10's the rear axle brace, add some 315/ 35 nitto drags before i race them need insight.

if he can drive, your toast. the charger wont be a problem at all. if you go from a roll you will get dusted. i love termis but with your mods, u dont have enough for a c6 z.

He will run you down mid 4th if he can drive, if he is not a solid driver, then he is sol.

Cobra with your mods can trap up to about 122-124, that is enough to beat a Z from a dig, just dont miss gears and make sure you have traction/tires.

Need more power, your only making about 15 more hp give or take than a z06 and weight a hell of alot more. Better hope he can't drive.

Orrrrr, take your back seats out, take your jack and spare out and passenger seat if you can. That will shed some good weight. Also, try not have more than quarter tank of gas when this happens.

You need more, the c6 is going to get you. Trust me i know. I own both cars. You should be fine with the charger.

standard c6 in 09 is 430hp and the z06 hasnt changed, it is still 505hp. You have to remember that the z06 is lighter.

where in ID are you? I will be there next mo in Lewiston to visit my dad with my z06.

I dont know what a standard c6 does. Most z06's dyno around 440 or so to the wheels. some more some less.

well i wish you the best of luck. If it is a standard c6 it will be fun. if it is a z06 it is over. I ran my buddies 03 cobra with 480hp/460tq and he couldnt take me at all. I pulled on him by 2 cars and he could never catch me.

It is a nice death.
