You can hear the cobra's bov at 7-8 seconds in the video, I wonder whose black svt that is?

Ah that wrx was killer. Very good race.

 

[v8musclecobra]

Badass race! Too bad there isnt any info on both cars.

Dayum. When I read the title I was thinking the cobra would be of SN95 style and said this will be close. Then when I saw it was an 03-04 I was like the cobra should romp on the wrx.
Then the race came and I was like Dayum that is close.

Isn't there a guy who runs around with a turbo but only 450rwhp or so? It looked about that fast of a race to me.

:rockon: Nice video.The sti has to be pushing around 700 AWHP to hang with turbo terminator like that.Front mount on the cobra looks like HP turbo kit.

[Allen2001GT]

good race, wonder what kind of power the cobra was making? could have had it on low boost for all we know.

 

[Carlos c]

Man............. time to turn the boost up!
Clean Subaru, but he was too close.

that cobra is not TT..

there are very few wrx that run more then 400awd..

most STIs just do about 300-330

The Cobra has an HP TT kit at around 12 lbs of boost. I would assume the Cobra is hovering around 500 WHP. It has no fuel mods.

The WRX has a rotated turbo kit and makes about 450 WHP.

 

[2000silvergt]

Very close race...too close!

 

[joemayo]

Do you not see the cockeyed front mount on the Cobra? No heat exchanger is like that.. that's how i figured it was turbo

Wake up. STIs cam make 300-330WHP with the stock turbo, exhaust, header and a tune. It is pretty easy to get a ~400 WHP WRX now.
