About the SS and T/A...
I have an 02 Gt and a friend has a 00 SS. He is consistently beating me by 0.8 secs. I have made a few mods and so as he. We went and Dyno'd and he was pulling (based on a calculation of 18% loss to the rear wheels) 100 more bhp than me. We are not even in the same league. I have told him time and time again, "give me 100 more hp and I will beat you every time." The 03 Cobra evens that odds a little bit. Lets see an SS with the same HP as the 03 Cobra run against an 03 Cobra. It is akin to my 280 bhp GT running against a stock Honda Civic. There is no comparison. HP for HP and $ for $ the 03 Cobra is right in line with the SS's and the WS6 T/A's but nobody will every compare them - they say that they are not in the same league.
