Im looking into getting a 2003/2004 Cobra hopfully within a few weeks. I currently own a talon running a 12.07 @ 117. Im getting to the point that trying to lay down 600 hp to the wheels is becoming difficult. I have to run 27psi and an 80 shot to come close. Im looking for something that I can make 600whp with and keep it streetable with pump fuel (C-16 gets expesive to fill the tank) and I feel the cobra might be the car for me. Ive seen all types of quarter mile times listed for this car ranging from 12.9 @ 108 to 12.0 @ 115. Whats the real deal here? what are these things pulling for times stock? Ive seen the RWHP numbers and I do have to say they are impressive. Any info is appriciated.

on pump gas 15psi running a "mild" tune...

If your pockets are deep you should be looking for way more than 600rwhp.

A friend of mine and myself will be looking to either buy an 04' Cobra or C6 in the near future. I need a V8. I still miss my 02' Cam'd SS .

What power are you making at 27 psi and an 80 shot? If it is over 500 rwhp you should be well into the 10's assuming the Talon weighs a lot less than an 03/04 Cobra.

I make 503 rwhp SAE and 550 rwt on the stock Eaton with a 2.80 upper and a four pound lower, full exhaust with JBA's and 3.90 gears. My last pass was in the middle of a 100 degree day with a full tank of pump gas and it went 11.39@122. It should go 10's on a cool night.

A buddy of mine is similar in mods with LT's and a six pound lower. I do all his mods and I installed a dry kit on it a few days ago. He got his chip tuned for a street and a spray program. On the street program with no juice the car made 510 rwhp SAE and 570 rwt with a stock Eaton. Then we made a pull on the spray program without spray to check the A/F. It made 503 rwhp and torque was around 560. Then we hit it with a dry shot through a .046 jet just ahead of the TB. It made 570 rwhp SAE and 670 rwt. All pulls were made back to back. The .046 shot leaned it out about a half point. Plugs were gapped at .023 and are Densos. Before the spary, it ran 7.20 at Mooresville with a slipping clutch in the middle of a warm day. It also has a live axle.
