Theres a huge difference between 99-02 Cobras. 99's were overrated. There was no 00 Cobra. 01-02 are good. So it depends on what year cobra u are talking about.

uuhh... there was no '02 cobra made and some say there was like three made but for factory wigs or something to that effect.

There was a '00 cobra... it was called the Cobra R. I would say with the cams and a 50 shot on drag radials and full exhaust you could probably expect LOW to mid 12's.

Well stock they're like high 13's, around 13.8. So figure you're adding over 100hp with those mods. I agree with the mid 12's.

I'm pretty sure his question didnt ask about Cobra R's, theres a huge difference between a Cobra and Cobra R.

99s were overrated, yes.

The 00 Cobra was the R with the 385 hp / 385 ft lbs tq 5.4L triton V8 with the first 6 speed gear box and first IRS setup on the Mustang Pony car.

01s.. just like the 99s.

...and there were no 02 Cobras in the US.
