I'm anal about it but ANY modification counts as modded when it comes to performance.
To say modded isn't just based off HP increase. Your example is good for modded because you would have spent a good bit of money and changed a rather significant part of the car. Your potential gave you more room to boost. My opinion is anything that enhances the vehicles performance significantly enough to have to get a tune, or in your case gives you more room to grow. But there are several opinions I'm sure. :bored:

so my cai tune and mid pipe is "stock" ?
Yes. But your JLT oil separator....that's a freakin' MOD!!
that adds like 1000hp alone
Awesome, my 11 has one on both sides! 2k FTMFW!! :banana:
True but if someone said "what mods do you have?" you would say stock? I'm sure you would say 2.8 or 4lb lower, CAI, etc, etc. Some guys that can't afford to much will put "Mods" in their profile and put..CAI, alpine stereo, 8" antenna, etc ect...So I guess everyone will see a mod differently than others but for performance, if you change anything stock that gives or should give you a performance edge, it's a mod. For me, i don't see mods as tinted tail lights or what new stereo you have though you did a modification to the car.
Nothing to doubt. 11.30s with a intake, tune, and exhaust for power mods sounds better then a pullied/ported eaton as far as work goes.
Then there is whole what does a "bolt-on" mean. Some will say an engine is or a twin screw. When they ask me I say Kennebell and associated mods and leave it at that. That's enough for them to assume I'm over 550rwhp.
I will eliminate confusion. I'm talking about things you bolt on that don't leave a gapeing hole in the engine. Intake vs intake, exhaust vs exhaust, and tune vs a tune. Those mods an R is faster if it is drag raced. Even with a pulley.
no way someone ran 11.3's with a CAI, tune, and exhaust on an 00r. They already have basani exhaust from the factory, so not too much to upgrade there. Unless it was Atco.
So a CAI, tune, exhaust R will pull on a CAI, tune, exhaust, pullied 03/04?;-)
Incorrect. A 2K Cobra R comes with a Borla CB, and a Bassani X-pipe. Still these are factory pieces, and aftermarket companies actually make aftermarket exhaust pieces for 2000 Cobra R's including Bassani.
It does have a solid axle with 4.10's. The video of the cobra r on the street is the car. The stock exhaust sucks. The car has an x pipe and some flows dumped on it now. The car is set up for straight line racing suspension wise. Car ran 12.4x stock at 111ish mph. Can't remember the exact mph. People underestimate the car big time.
The Cobra R will not benefit as much from bolt on's when compared to a Terminator, It's common knowledge that it's easier to make power with a boosted car rather than an N/A car.
This debate is pointless though as the Cobra R was never really meant to go fast in a straight line, it was meant to be a street legal race car.
Please do not try and kick knowledge to me Mr bolton 2v GT owner. Your previous knowledge is about full retard, and if you do not wish for me to quote you then do not quote me.
BTW I never said mod for mod a Cobra R would see the increases a Terminator will even though it may. For example a Bassani CB added to a Cobra R may make as much of an increase as it will on a 03/04. IDK if it will or not and neither do you. Before the 5.0's dropped people thought they would be so efficient that they wouldn't respond well to mods, and that's the farthest thing from the truth. LS motors also tend to respond very well to basic N/A mods.

I have a 2v gt? that's news to me :shrug:
Coming from the guy who thinks that his lightening will out handle a Terminator you have no room to talk. I was trying to have an intelligent conversation but it seems as though that is too hard for you.
