I cannot wait to run a '13 when i see one.
547rwhp might be the weakest twin screw car I've seen. Sad actually. Not much of a race either.

cosign!
Some people think the Cobra would have stopped the pull if it was just as fast but like you said. When someone gets the jump and has more momentum it's hard to make that back and if the cars are even you have no chance.
That Cobra should trap about 130 with his power so it should be a good race.
Must have race again, 3 beep highway. And yes, cobra needs to up the boost...
547hp from a twin screw? Whats the point?
Dude needs to add more support and actually use that blower.
That cobra is way outgunned with that power even thinking about going against a 650hp '13 gt500.

Probably upgraded to the kb for the sound. No other explanation for not adding supporting mods. Domestic ricer.
What would be the "supporting mods?"
Fuel pumps, BAP, injectors, cooling mods ie heat exchanger, ic tank, head cooling mod. Clutch, Lot more involved than slapping on a new blower if you want it to run to its full potential which in this video it obviously wasn't.
That sounds like a truckload of money there. Maybe he didn't want to invest that kind of loot. I wouldn't call him a "domestic ricer." Five hundred forty seven RWH isn't exactly small potatoes, especially from a car that came from with factory with [rated] 390HP at the crank. However, he was simply outmatched by the '13.
Good point but he also could have ported his stock blower and made 500-520 rwhp for 500 bucks. Used twin screws sell for 2300-2700 depending on model. Obviously new are quite a bit more.
Searching the market section id bet he could score most of that stuff at 60% of new cost.
When i was into imports i knew several people who swapped stock turbos for large ones and ran them at low boost with minimal supporting mods so gains were minimal. But hey i got a gt35r on there. Part of the reason i left the import community. Too many ricer and not enough true enthusiast.

C'mon TS guys, take your car to the streets and show us some good stuff, don't want to see this crappy video again!
Reg you have no shot with that shitbox, e85 FTL.
If you really think about it, it sad to see a fairly modded Cobra getting walked by a stock vehicle thats under 100k. I love the 2013 GT500, but with all these well priced factory stock monsters hitting the road Im gonna have to shoot higher with my Hp goals to keep up.. 
Seriously?? I get what you are saying, but come on. We need to come back to reality just a bit. These are 10 year old cars!

Oh shit that GT500 moves out!
I said its sad because at one point KB Cobras use to dominate the streets and that has been quickly changed in the past few years. Your right, it is a 10 year old car, I was not denying the age difference. The simple fact is how fast production cars are getting and that it raises the bar for what to shoot for.
