They've all been recalled and fixed.

Honestly though, I thought the highest they got was 260 horses?

considering the 03 cobra needs a power adder just to keep up with a LS1 makes me laugh. at the track, my car with just convo pros and 4.10s, i was able to beat them all the time. even had one guy get pissed and told the officials that he was ahead of me at the end of the track. it was close but i was able to pull on the top end all the time. im keeping my LS1.

As far as the TTA, it's had GN numbers I believe. I think they were running 13's stock. I forget.
supercharged cobras are nothing to laugh at. its hard to compare to an ls1 since their compression is about 8.5 : 1 as compared to an ls1's 10.xx:1..of course the cobras will be slower N/A. but the LS1 will never have what the cobras have from the factory and that is forged internals that can handle 800hp+. for the record 4.6s have gone faster than LS1s....
