Z06 is faster, but with $600 worth of mods the cobra will toast it.

Ford finally came through. The last generations of cobras were compared to comaro SS's. But now they are being compared to vettes, Z06 vettes, M3's, etc. Great bang for the buck.

another interesting tidbit of knowledge.

MM&FF dyno tested it in the newest issue (August).
It had 381 RWHP, BUT, they removed the air silencer and it went up to 394 at the wheels. Ford had to put it on so the cobra would pass niose regulations. thats 13 free horses. Just think what a set of pulleys will do.
