2.9 whipple cobra track times

[04svtcobrablack]

Hey guys took the cobra out yesterday for the first time after installing my 2.9 whipple. mods of my car are in my sig. i think i could get my times a little lower but when i tried to run it a third time my tranny messed up. when i tried to shift into second gear wouldnt go in was really hard to put in. finnaly went in and i couldnt get it out of 2nd forced it out and went to put it in 3rd and same thing just didnt get stuck in gear. oh well i guess its time to put more money into it lol. im really happy with the results either way. anyways heres a video and a pic of my timeslip

Congrats on the 10's! If I were to ever go to a twin screw the Whipple 2.9 is what I would want. Swap pulleys and let it eat!

Get a line lock and some 28" et drag's and watch the et's drop quite a bit more.

Thanks I actually have a 3.2 pulley I plan to run on e85 and just keep the 3.5 for every day driving (91 octane)

I've been thinking about a line lock for a while now just really never pulled the trigger on buying one might be my next mod after I fix the tranny. I'm actually running 28" Mt et drags right now.

No line lock..just learn how to do a burn out. What kind of power does the car make?

Line lock saves the rear brakes and is easier on the clutch, no brainer.

+1. Good way to jack up a clutch with no line lock.

That's a good et but 123mph with a 2.9 whipple?:shrug:

I would think a whip 2.9 with a decent launch would be well over the 99 mph mark. There should be lots left in this car!!

I have similar setup with the whipple 2.9 but I do have the E85 switch tune.. On the S/C belt you are running with the idler, what belt size is that? I have to put my idler back on, was just wondering!! Awesome times, thanks for sharing...

 

[gamebred26]

yeah your trap is way low...i trap 130-133

I asked some members on here the same thing and they think its cuz of my elevation of 3900 ft

That's what had me scratching my head when i saw it on timeslip I only picked up 3 mph after whipple swap. People say its cuz of my elevation :shrug:

2.9 for the win!!

I found a toggle switch in my 09 gt500... turned out to be a line switch....

that the dealer removed

Times are kinda slow for an SRA Cobra with a 2.9 Whipple on 28" slicks, i have run faster and quicker with my little ported eaton :rolling:



Just messin with ya man, get some seat time, launch it and shift it high and hard and that should be a low 10 car.

Alttitude does make a big difference, where in Texas are you?
