Not a slouch! Great sound too

THE CORK SCREW!!!!....WEEEEE!!!!

only one lap but awsome..great track in a nice car

Wish it was the F1 pace car :D

Umm what year was the Cobra? before '03 with the exact same body it didn't have the supercharger and if it's an '03-'04 w/out a blower it's a Mach 1 basically. (yes there are some big differences)

And that Cobra was not stock I've been in a few stock ones and they aren't that loud unless he had the windows down but it didn't sound like it he probably had an intake at the least, an intake on a Supercharger changes the way the car sounds more than on any other type of car I've ever heard. And yes Cobra's are fast as hell for the price, if you can't afford a Z06 buy a Cobra, not a haridressers car as RC calls it.

superchargers sound so gay to me. but hey, my wrx would get it's ass handed against that cobra. egh.

That thing deffinately has a pulley on it, i've never seen a stock cobra pull like that, but great engine none the less, very easy car to get into the 10's.

wow a video i posted 2 years ago,lol
but that isnt a stock cobra i dont think,and i never posted that it was,lol
the supercharger is loud on this and from reading since then the supercharger is different i think,apparently sumthin by Kenne bell or sumthin is an upgrade and that makes it even louder

Thats not an STi by any chance, is it?

OMFG! That is fricking quick - quicker than an F355 I reckon...

That is so NOT stock guys. I've driven the F150 Lightning which has a supercharger and it wasn't anywhere near as loud.

However, having seen this video I am extremely tempted to try one of these Cobras out!

RC was asking if I would be buying another V8...If I get my visa extended then I might just have to have one of these monsters...

haha well i would have to say that would be a great choice :mrgreen: transam2001. they really are amazing cars for the money, and a car that i want to own in the near future (a lot of the links i post in the american section are of these cobras :P ).

the 03-04 cobra's are pretty underrated from the factory, putting down anywhere from 340 to 370 rwhp stock from what i have read. they also respond very well to simple mods i.e. exhaust, cai, pully, tune yields 450+ rwhp. the motors are already built from the factory (i.e. come with a forged bottom end that can handle laods of hp with a proper tune/supporting mods) and many people are seeing close to 600rwhp by upgrading the stock blower to a kenne bell or whipple without ripping apart their motor. nice post, even if it as over a year ago lol :D

edit: here is a link i posted a few months ago of a kb cobra (in the american video section), at the end of the video he does some runs from around 40 to 130, in similar fashon to the video gis posted :D

The acceleration is impressive! Very fast!
And that turbo seemed to be almost blowing up :lol: Such a loud noise!

T-Bird 07-06-2005 05:44 PM

dude that wasn't a Turbo that was the amazing sound of a Supercharger.
