RE: 01 bullitt vs 01 cobra
its NOT an sti. its a wrx. the only thing he has is a boost controller which he claims makes his car faster than sti's now but i think hes full of it. he just runs 14psi instead of 8psi.

RE: 01 bullitt vs 01 cobra
probably a drivers race, but if you and him were even racers, id say the bullit by no more than a nose, that is if your black on black refers to you being a convertible...combination of the extra weight and lack of solid axle would have him winning in the quarter mile...a very close race though

Equal drivers, the Bullitt will look like a GT with about 10more hp while you show him why 4v is better.
In 'stock' form, the Bullitt might be considered a glorified GT engine, but with the intake & TB, once you start opening up the exhaust and consider head/cam work it'll work out cheaper & better than to have done a manifold swap on a GT.

Yes I am sure that his boost controller added 80 more whp and trq
This guy sounds like a dbag. FIRST RULE in tuning a FI car..Cranking up the psi does not make more power unless you upgrade the exhaust flow, intake, intercooler, give it a good tune, new plugs, new fuel injectors etc etc.
Why are people acting like bullits are as fast as cobras?? I dont know much about the bullit but isnt it still N/A??

Providing you can drive as well as the other two,you will own both of them.I could see the Bullitt staying with you up til 70mph or so,but after that you will walk him.A bullitt will trap 100-101mph vs a '01 Cobra 105-106mph[with good drivers and conditions].
