haha, i feel the same.

I have a lot more fun at the track, and you can see the improvement's to your vehicle, and your own skill alot more accurate then the dyno's half *** guess.

i agree, dyno or no dyno, its all about having fun driving my car. i only did it cause i was curios to compare to my friends cars and it was. . .well super cheap. i'd maybe try it at the track, but as you all know, handling isn't the best in these stock. and i aint have money to fix that.

it should do fine at the track if you can drive.

subframe's make a HUUUUUUUGE difference.

i installed maximum motorsport XL full length's on my car today.

seriously a hole new car, improved every aspect dramatically. But my car flex's more because it's a 'vert so i saw a better improvement then most.


cost me $120 for the subframe's and payed a buddy $40 and a case of beer to weld em in

Where do you live? There is one in fontana (1/4 mile) once a month by the 15 and 10 freeway and one in Irwindale (1/8 mile) every Thursday by the 605 and 10 freeway

i would think you should get more out of it seeing as it is a cobra and has the gt40 everything. iirc adder claimed to get like 270rwhp from his cobra when it was stock
