I know enough that I wouldnt race in a straight line. wiki it if you want more info. I pick on regular 4.6s just for fun. But when it comes to that Ford acually started workin on that car.

[sonic]

Yeah You could beat him with a SC......... I think.

[TheSoundMan21]

ya you put a sc on our cars and I dont think much can really beat us. There will be of course but your going to be in the top 10%

[chaddy1984]

awesome thanks guys still open for inputs

[Java Junky]

No matter whu'cha put into it, like the ol' gunfighters, when ya shoot fer the top'a the heap, sooner'r later there'z alwayz somebody quicker.
But another sooner'r later involved inn'att'z go'cha wonderin' jus' when it wuz tha'cha stopped enjoyin' yerself.

Very true Java, there will always be someone quicker. But it's so much fun trying to be the fastest.

[chaddy1984]

very true Java very true...

Aarrrrrh! 'mazin' it'izz, the revelationz that bare'emselves ta those barnacled hulkz whut'z managed ta stay afloat long enough . . . n' bein' nearer the bottom'a me rum tank'rd don't hurt either.

It depends on what you will run in the quarter with the sc. I've seen 1 from someone who just put their sc on and their best of 3 runs was a 13.00 quarter mile.


Heres some quarter mile times for I believe the sc cobra.

I have to guess that those times are by a proffessional driver though, so results may vary with joe blow drivers.

[s2000isu]

it all comes down to the driver. My car will pull mid 12's with nice tires and a descent launch. Im sure a cobra will do the same.

[gomarlins3]

Hmmmmmm, supercharged S200o or Cobra you say? Let me decide. Aw heck, I'll take both!!!

[chaddy1984]

im going to get those cobra faulkers one way or another just gotta get the doe to do it....

[Neil]

Are those both your buggies gomarlins ? If they are are you looking to foster a 46yr old man ? housetrained

[army_boy]

im sorry but with any work done to a cobra, and its game over for the s2k with or without a supercharger, i mean 500 hp from just bolt ons, yea unless your going to do a complete build it wont be close at all

[chaddy1984]

well if thats the case i race him around the world and ill win cause that dudes car is F ound O n R oad D ead.....fukem oh yeah ford found the problem they circled it puhahahaaaaah

[s2000isu]

thats why there are mustangs with 600k miles............

[chazdawg35]

I'm shamed to admit I had a ranger truck and was on NAPA's 5 fave's list for head gaskets.No more FORD for me.

[skatin_s2000]

know whats funny is lil kids that think 500 hp in a mustang is fast... what most people forget to rmr is that honda's best asset is power to weight ratio, let alone there very short gearing. put 300 whp in a crx, drag radials and a good driver and ur 500 hp slowbra is car lengths behind.

[sonic]

^ Very good point.

I concur. My brother used to have a 91 si crx. For being 108 crank hp, that thing moved very well. I'd buy one today too if I could find one that didn't have the shit beat out of it and if it was stock.

[Java Junky]

Dunno skate, 'seen carz whut should'a been nano-second fast turn out sluggz n' seen stockerz whut should'a been ho-hum transportation have somethin' goin' on inside the wrapper whut made 'em weird-quick.
In'att competition you're talkin' of, I'd still rather be punchin' the 'Stang. But bench-racin'z jus' that: bench-racin'.

let alone of owning this fine piece of machinery, i also own a 86 crx si which put 238 whp with bfgoodrich drag radials and i beat 2 cobras, camaro ss and a c5 vette etc.. proof is in the pudding my friend hahaha..

[Java Junky]

Ah-h-h-h . . but that'z your proof n' your puddin' skate.

Budd'I'd still rather be pilotin' the Mustang. Ol' habits die hard, y'know? 'Least it'z rear-wheel which I always feel more comfortable with. (That last ain't a "nyah-nyah")
