long story short, we went from dig and i beat him by about a length. second run, i shifted harder this time to 7k and beat him by about 3 lengths.
i asked if he wanted to go to track and that we could set something up. i guess he was pretty upset and just left. didnt say nothing just rolled up his window and took off.
i seriously doubt he was laying down around 550 to the grd.
i hear that but your typical ported blower cobra will make 500-520 at the wheels. with a 75 shot the car will make 600 give or take a bit. a 75 shot on a cobra will act like a 100 shot on anything else. the nitrous is two fold. not only do you get the benefit of the nitrous itself but the spray also cools the inlet temps on an eaton blower by a lot. im not saying by anymeans that the cobra that you raced or the cobra that the op raced should have won or make anywhere near the power both cobras claimed to make.

This guy is a tool, He still claim the 750-850 lie after. One of the greatest kill story. I love it when plp are put to their place with their lies. I think I only race for that, ricer(domestic or import) that lies about their numbers.

Ah, FWIW, a Gates belt is the best belt for Cobra's. Also supplied in every Kenne Bell kit, FYI.

id be willing to bet hes over 600. that little 75 shot will gain nicely as well as cool the AIT to help that blower out. i know a few guys with terminators, and they all seem to like running a small shot for that reason.

Haha, great kill! I'm thinking that people inflate their numbers to try and intimidate you. They probably figure you won't want to run them and will go tell everyone how badass their car is. Instead it makes their badass car look like a girl's car when they get it handed to them by a much "slower" car.

Nice kill. I have a 03 Cobra with pretty much every bolt on you can come up with, including a 150shot. That guy isnt making anywhere even close to 850, hell not even 750. I am gonna put a new radiator in and rebuild the intercooler pump on mine and I will dyno it. I can gurantee it wont be anything like that ><
