Default Cobra vs mrt's SS

Ended up meeting with mrtstang at a car show at msu, some pretty cool cars there, couple lambo's, a gtr, r34 skyline, lots of nissan's and subaru's. Anyways, we ended up leaving and decided it was the perfect time for some runs. Since our last meeting he added a ported throttle body and ram air, I added a single blade throttle body and that was it, so i figured it would be about the same as last time, and I was right. we got on the highway and did a couple 55/60 pulls. Traffic wouldn't allow us to go any lower. we got 2 clean runs, both the same outcome, me by maybe a car? Have to wait for mrt to chime in. Got a vid of one of the runs. first run the g/f didn't hit the right button, and the third one mrt missed a shift. so here's the vid from today. Next I gotta get my car on the rollers and get a real dyno tune, then we're gonna line up again and do some n/a and some nitrous runs

Well like I said, i'm really only planning on a 75 shot. Unless I dont make more than 550whp I'll stick with that jetting. so assuming you hit your car with a 100-125 we might have some fun races! I also gotta borrow the gopro from tc and keep the girlfriend at home so i can take advantage of my weight reduction

Yeah i'm thinking me on a 100 and you on a 75 will be very tight! I'm not sure if I told you, but I will be set to go with the sauce on May 14th. Sounds like you will be tuned by then too

Nice run!!

If greddy hits his with a 75 shot and leaves the gf at home then I think you will need at least 125 shot to be even with him.

You might be right on that! Although greddy and his girl combined probably only have 60-70 lbs on me though lol

I hear ya!! But even if she is just 100 pounds that is worth a tenth in the 1/4. Also the 75 shot should do really well on cooling the blower on the Cobra. They respond well to small shots.
