cobra v/s gt 94-95

[88LXHatch]

Hi I was wondering the differences in the engine in a gt v/s a cobra (parts, horspower, 1/4 mile times) on 94-95 cars. been away from mustangs for a while now and i'm thinking of getting another one, I've missed my 95 ever since I sold it. I was thinking of getting another gt but after seeing what they are selling for I think I'll be buying a cobra. Thanks for the replys Robert.

Other info:
The 94-95 Cobra (and GT) came with a 60mm throttlebody, not the 65mm alot of people believe it to have. The 93 cobras came with a 65mm.
Although the 94-95 Cobra came with 24lb injectors it still uses the same MAF (mass airflow meter) as the GT. The Cobra specific computer compensates for the 24lb injectors.

Many people say the Cobra came with underdriven pulleys but from what i've heard it only has a Cobra specific overdriven waterpump pulley. Even if they are slightly underdriven they are nowhere near the same as real underdrive pulleys.

actually the 94-95 gt's were rated at 215 hp it was the 87-92 fox body cars were rated at 225 though the cobra specs were right unless we bring up the 95 cobra r with 300 hp and 365 ft/lbs
