I was trying to figure out the outcome of this race.

My 03 GT has these mods:
CAI
Full Exhaust - Offroad Xpipe
Dyno Tuned with Predator

His 95 Cobra only has exhaust.

How would this race turn out?

you should be able to pull him if exhaust is only mod

Exactly.

Thats what i'm thinking... I can't remember but i think the 95 cobra with the 5.0 was around 240HP.

Yes, they are rated 240 hp. They usually put down around 210 hp to the wheels in stock form.

5.0 Cobra's were very under rated. They rated them at 240hp. GT's were rated at 215. How the hell does a 5.0 with GT-40 heads, and upper/lower intake only pull 25 extra HP? [>:]

Ill post a dyno sheet of one putting down around 250 with full exhaust.

What was your final RWHP number?? When you say full exaust, do you mean long tubes, x and catback or just a x and catback, (or shorties?)

Stock i think they run about a 14.2 or a little better, which is the same as your car stock...

the 03 gt will win but not by much it will be close prolly be a drivers race

stock for stock those cars both run close to 14.0 flat. If he is really stock except for exhaust (you should assume he is in decent tune) the only real difference is your CAI. Im not sure that thats a big enough advantage to wager on.

If youre sure he hasnt gotten gears, suspesion upgrades, a cam, or bolt-ons or anything else it'll be a drivers race.

If he hasnt taken care of his cobra you'll also probably win.

Whoa that is a small amount os power for a 5liter V8, plus they are pretty heavy

yea but u also gotta think about the torque from it like for instance b4 my recent mods my car only made 209 at the wheels but it made 275ftlbs of torque thats a pretty big difference

if the cobra really is stock then he is full of weak ass mid 90s hippie smog sh1t. That's why those cars were not that fast and that's why those 5 ohs responded so well to mods. They couldn't breathe.

The Cobra is also over ten years old and could be a very high mile car. He might only have about 200 hp left in that thing.

Equal drivers, my money is on the GT.

intresting way of putting it about the hippies and everthing. if he put on a o/r h or x pipe he has definately freed up a lil bit of hp since they come with 4 cats on them but i agree with mike its bound to have soem miles on it

99-04 have 6 i belive

4 cats, 2 resonators.

wow... my car only had 1 cat & 1 resonator lol... & 1 1/4 inch piping stock hahaha

it will have 2 high-flows when i get my exhaust

LOL....You guys are to funny. Trust me , its a drivers race, whoever gets off the line better, You might be able to take him on a roll, because your gears are a little taller, but other than that, its a drivers race. This race will be based on tires, traction, shifting points,and reaction time.

If your a good driver im goin to say you'll win, i beat my share of cobra's hahaha ok only 2 a 95 and a 97 both 5 spds 97 was a convertable. :D

Actually the fox bodies came with 2 cats and 2 resonators. The hippie smog **** is true lol, a H/C/I swap on a 5.0 will put you up to about 300 hp if not more depending on your combo, the head swap is worth around 50hp alone. I'm 16 and I don't have the money for a H/C/I swap yet but for the minor mods that I have done so far it has responded very well.
