hi everyone
 

hi, i just got a 99 mustang GT.
it is freaking awsome, i founf this site on yahoo, id love to be a member.
i have a question also, why does it say in all the car mags, that the 99 cobra and the GT both do a 0-60 in 5.4 sec. what is the dif. if they are the same?

I believe the '99 Cobra's may be able to get close to that. Maybe 5.6sec. stock, after the "fix". I think the '99 GT's are rated at 5.9sec. Those ratings in the back of magazines aren't the most reliable. In the 1/4 mile, I think the Cobra is capable of 13.9, while the GT can do 14.1 sec.

T-Bones 1997 Cobra
Wht/blk, Pro 5.0, 4.10's, aluminum driveshaft, FRPP throttle body, C&L MAF, K&N, off-road H, Flowmasters, s/f connectors, FRPP pro springs, BBK caster/cambers.

The difference in horsepower between the two isn't significant enough to make a difference in 0-60 and also traction is an issue (more hp = less traction off the start). The quarter mile, though, is where the horsepower shows up (especially MPH if there is no traction).

Traction is a very real reason why the 99 Cobra's 0-60mph times are so close to the 99 GTs.
But don't let the magazines tell you how fast your car should be. Race and drive to know it.

Welcome 99GTPony.

Come back with some numbers and show us the love. http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...board/wink.gif
