Another thing with the '93 Cobra is that they made <supposedly> 20 less pound feet of torque than the stock 5.0s. They were rated at 235hp and 280tq. Although I think these numbers are off a friend of mine with nearly the same setup as a Cobra on his LX can only hit 97-100 in the quarter and hasn't seen 13s all year. I blame it on the driver, but seeing his trap speeds, theres not much improvement with street tires.

It's quite simple 1BAD89. LS1 owners and Ricers quote the fastest time for their cars possible. A stock LS1 M6 will run 12.90@108mph, and an Integra Type R will run a 14.6@96mph.
Here in the real world, Mustang guys quote what the car will run with a good driver. Quite frankly, as SaleenGTS has pointed out, his Cobra made 260RWHP nearly stock. Translate that to flywheel hp, figure in the weight, and his car will run right with a stock LS1. Even the guys at Motor Trend got a 99 Cobra to run a 13.5@105, and they routinely got the 96-98 Cobra's to pull off 14.0@102, and those guys are no 1/4 mile masters. GM is widely known for giving factory wringer cars to the testers. Sorry about the awful typo. If the only thing you can find wrong with my post is a spelling error, I'd say I'm doing alright. (Notice my use of a complex sentance with inverted order there. "If" was at the beginning of the sentance so to signal the use of a subordinate clause. The subordinate clause required the use of a comma to seperate the multiple ideas expressed in the sentance.) In other words, sometimes I don't care what my spelling looks like so I don't always go back and proofread my posts. I get the distinct feeling all Mustangs are slow in stock form because your car performed poorly. [This message has been edited by Unit 5302 (edited 11-01-2001).] |

So I've made another spelling error. Oh no, what am I ever going to do?
Regardless, you know jack **** about how Mustangs run. Maybe it's because you can't drive, or maybe it's something else altogether. At least you've got an automatic to do all the shifting for you now. That way you won't **** up by granny shifting your cars. I don't know why you even hang around the Mustangworks anymore to tell you the truth. You do nothing but rip on just about every Mustang on this board while simultaneously claiming to like Mustangs? I don't really feel much like calming down to tell you the truth. I've stayed calm watching your bullshit attacks on the Mustang since you picked up that **** pile f body several months ago. I even backed off completely and watched you continue to rip on 'Stangs for a few weeks. If you really want to know what a Mustang can do, learn how to drive a stick shift and find out. You could just find some one who already knows how to drive and watch them as well. There are guys who can put stock fox bodies into the 13's. You're correct, the proper spelling is sentence. I don't know why I spelled it sentance. Perhaps it was one of those common mistakes such as spelling maintenance incorrectly as maintenence Quote:
I don't know when this ridiculous spelling issue became such big problem. Quite frankly, I see typos and misspelled words in many posts by intelligent people here, but you don't see me bringing it up. If it bothers you so much, I suppose you could just leave and find a site that is more open to your negative comments about the performance potential of a stock Mustang.

Yup your right I've just ran in the low 12's with a few of them. This is all to funny hearing this from someone that has never raced at a track. ***Maybe it's because you can't drive, or maybe it's something else altogether. At least you've got an automatic to do all the shifting for you now. The SS is just my daily driver, I like the auto. It's fast and comfy, it's not my racecar. And I got a he!! of a deal on it. ***That way you won't **** up by granny shifting your cars. I don't know why you even hang around the Mustangworks anymore to tell you the truth.

But I still see that you are having the female problems huh, so I'm taking it as your just a pissed off guy, letting some steam out? Well it's ok for me, this is just the internet, not my complete life. It'll be alright, just don't be so angry. Another girl will come along man. I haven't seen ANYWHERE at all that I have been bashing mustangs. WTF are you talking about? You need to get over your insecurities that my sig. says SS. Geez. I was actually just ****** with you about the typo(hell I have typos all the time, no biggy, we all do it)until you pulled this crap, and you were trying to sound intelligent, and then you mispelled sentence over and over. Hell man I didn't do a grammar check on your post...lol ***(Notice my use of a complex sentance with inverted order there.

I'd sure like to see them...? Riigghhttt....because there are none. It always starts out with you starting sh*t with me. It's ok though..some people are just angry.

Dustins figures are pretty accurate but 1BAD89 definitely knows how mustangs run. He's got experience to back his mouth with that most internet racers do not. Stop attacking eachother over stupid **** . Personaly having an LS1 for a daily driver and a stang as your racecar is fine.
Your average GT would never hang with a Cobra. Mine is a Hartop stickshift with the 308's from the factory at the time. My mods were ADS superchip (the same one I gave to Cam), off road H pipe, and a drop in k&n filter with the factory airbox and the factory catback. He had a 95 Cobra with an off road H pipe, exhaust system, cold air induction kit, and a pro5.0 shifter. I had him by a full car at the top of 3rd which is I was crossing the traps at the time, he didnt catch me till 5200 or so in 4th gear. His car had a little better top end than mine. My car hit a 14.6 @ 96mph on a 2.2 60ft totaly totaly stock. Add my little mods and you get a mid-low 14. Go figure. I have a hard time believing that a 94-95 Cobra with pullies and a MAF will keep up with an LS1. A 93 with a set of bolt ons and gears might, but no SN95. ------------------ 95GT, TFS T.W. heads, Holley Intake, B303 cam, FRPP 30lb injectors, Scorpion 1.6 rollers, 65mm TB, 73mm MAF, BBK Longtubes, Flowmaster cat back, March Pulleys, MSD coil, 9mm wires, Tremec 3550 trans, Pro5.0 shifter,10.5 Motorsport clutch, FMS aluminum driveshaft, weld in subframe connectors. 190lph pump, BBK adj FPR. |

GO unit! go unit!
ok, i see what he is saying, 1bad89 is cool, but just like the windsor power topic, he (1bad89) is saying how this guys mods wont get him a certain amount of hp? wich it wont, but if your such a mr. goodwrench....help the guy? tell him what he needs, and that his mechanic is totally stupid? thats how i see you bashing, you think you know it all about mustangs, but your here telling us how these cobras and mustangs wont hang, or cant go low 14's? I agree a little with you, and unit, and like rev mentioned, (and he runs close to me) i have beat 99-01 cobras, it was a vert, with kennybrown suspnsion, he couldnt run better than 14.3. And all the 94-95 cobras i run, seem to be in the 13.8-14.0 range, stock!! or close to ****** |

I never said I was bad a$$ Mr. Goodwrench. And he never asked what he needed to make that hp, he seems pretty content on the engine builder, and what he says. I should've re-phrased what I was saying. I've never seen a 94-95 cobra run 13.8 stock, or a low 14. I just go off what I have seen at the track, but everywhere is diff. You have to have a good driver to get good times, and we all know that there are some unexperienced drivers. But in no way have I bashed mustangs on here at all. I mean I said it would probaly run 1 tenth slower than what you guys said, and I am bashing mustangs?

Getting back to the original topic...
I'm sure with better weather, and driving, on my part, my GT could pull a 14.2. That being said, my cobra beat my GT with me driving the cobra, and not laying rubber down in ANY gear (granny shifting). So I figure with my mods to the cobra, it's gonna run maybe a 13.8-13.9. Meaning about 14.3 stock. Hope that helps the original question. ------------------ Black 2000 GT Auto Bassani X-pipe, Magnaflow Mufflers, Steeda Pulleys, K&N Filter.

It's not girl issues, lol. I think it may have to do with this ******* client making some ridiculous demands at the workplace though. Basically the job is suckin *** for the moment. Don't all these millonaires have something better to do with their time????
I really should blast you that hard. I think most of the time we agree on **** , just almost never on the stock performance of the Mustang. So lata, 1BAD89. |

The only thing you have to watch out for in motor trend, car and driver and road and track is that their times are corrected....I don't think 5.0's and MM&FF's are....correct me if I am wrong, I very well may be, but that is what I heard.

Their "stock" SS on street tires ran a 12.7, that is why I think some of there times are BS. ;o\ And their stock Lightning ran a 13.31@104 on street tires. Most mag's are BS.
