how well does the GT fare against the late gen Cobras? in terms of mod for mod,not in terms of overall potential.Say a modded supercharged GT vs a bolt on Cobra making about the same ammount of power? even matched or it's all on the driver? being that it seems like alot of people
are making really good numbers ;say 480+ to the wheels with SC/GTs...

Are you referring to Terminator Cobras or like Shelby GT500 cobras?

Why would this be a question here? This forum is full of worthless threads

terminator Cobras,have always wanted one but not a possibility.Just want to know how well a bolt on supercharged GT would fare against a Cobra Terminator with basic bolt ons/tune.
ran one with my stage 2 srt-4 just for fun and I was head to head with one from 40 til about 120 then it pulled soo ridiculously hard on me it's not even funny lol.

oh..ummm...the only place I know of is this place in texas called LA motor cars and they are usually stocked with really nice Cobras as well as some other hard to find sports cars;LS1 TAs,Fd rX-7S and all.Would be a hassle to go all the way down there ,rather see what I can do with a GT.

rdiaz, that video is a roughly 450rwhp GT vs a roughly 525+rwhp termi....not a fair race really. I think the Termis can put down around 600+rwhp with the stock Eaton so it is very possible the one in the video is doing so
