Default stock terminator power?

Just wondering, how much power do '03-'04 Cobra's make at the wheels without any mods?

The highest I have ever seen bone stock was 408 rwhp. But I think I may have been a freak. But normally it is about 375-380 rwhp

yep, spot on, most dyno at 375+rwhp, definitely underrated from the factory. Add a KN filter and a tune, and your already at more than 400rwhp.

Yea, they were built with all out performance in mind.

I don't know how interested you really are in learning about them, or if you were just intrigued to find out how much power they make, but there is a book; "Iron Fist Lead Foot" that will give out TONS of information.

It's about the pre-production and John COlletti and how much they did to make the car what it is.

Very good read, and I suggest it to anyone.

Wow, I have never seen one dyno that high, maybe a happy dyno. For the most part I have seen them in the 370-380 range.

They call them "Terminators" because they destroyed the Trans Am, and Camaro single-handedly.

I guess one of my friend's friends (if that makes sense) is getting a termi, so I thought I'd find out how much power they have. He has a '07 GT that I destroyed by 4 car lengths last time we raced. I'd be interested to see how he does in a cobra. I have a fully tubular rear suspension and what not, so my car launches pretty decent. what kind of 1/4 mile times do they get? wouldn't the independent rear go against it for drag racing?

I have heard sotires of them even destroying Corvette. But I think that depends on the year of the vett and the driver.
