125 mph trap speed.

[myfault]

what would it take to achieve this with an 03 cobra and how much $$ involved?

 

[LTHL PSI]

2.80 Pulley-$60 approx
Cat Back-$500 approx.
Chip/Predator-$400 approx.
Filter-$100 approx.
Nitrous-$600 approx.
Tires-$600 approx.

$2k total approx.

That should give you a 125+ guaranteed.

thank you

Apten Eaton and all the bolt ons coupled with an aggressive driving style, Venomous03 just did this , actually he went right @ 126 and has more in the bag!

Sorry to jack the thread but how much boost would it take running say a Whipple/Twin Screw to achieve a 130mph Trap speed?

Based on our data posted in TopRacer's thread in the sticky at the top, ( http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=61956 ) I did some work on ET and MPH vs power-to-weight ratio. I'd estimate you need around 550-600 rwhp to hit 125 mph. (If the search function was working I could find the thread where I posted the graph.)

Edit: Forgot the 2nd question. For 130 mph, I'd estimate you'd need (gulp) ... 620-680 rwhp!

Nitrous isn't needed to hit 125mph.

2.76 pulley & idlers
full exhaust
chip or predator
shifter & quadrant (will help)
tires
CAI or filter

It would be tough with that combo to hit 125. I would say in reality you're looking at 123 tops with that combo. You would need a ported blower to be realistic.

I'd also like to add that weight reduction can help too! Just getting rid of all the crap in the trunk and buying a rear seat delete can help! 100 pounds with all that right there!

I actually meant to list a ported eaton. That will get you to 125mph if you can drive your ass off.

It's lookin' that way, NBS4, it's lookin' that way!

mods and times in sig. hopefully will be running 10's this sunday on et streets. hopefully my speed wont drop to much from the taller tire. my 126 pass was done on a bogged run.

VENOMOUS03COBRA - that's absolutely fantastic for that much power! I had you in my spread sheet as only pulling a 11.52 @ 122.54 mph, previously. Have you made improvements since you posted that time over on ModFords, such as reduced weight? I'll have to update my sheet! Kick a$$ driving, dude!

To be consistently in the 125+ yes, I believe Nitrous is a must.

Their are very few members who have ran 125 on the Eaton, ported or not, and how many of those can back them up run after run consistently? Most have run a 125 once out of 3 times they visit the track. If he got Nitrous, you can guarantee his car would be a true consistent 125+ mph car. Probably 128 depending on the shot. Not to mention it will take a good driver to achieve it with just an eaton, a fair one can hit 125 everytime on the spray. Assuming he can hook. Again these are observations I have seen, maybe soon 125 wont be a big thing on the Eaton, but as of now only an elite few can make those claims.
