RE: 1/4....wtf?
With the stock convertor you can launch at 1700 rpms. I launch at that all the time. I have ran a 13.8 @ 99.80mph with only a SCT Tune, 4:10 Gears, Fender Intake, aluminum Drive Shaft. Get those 4:10s in your car ASAP and that tune, get someone that knows what they are doing to tune your car or you may just make it worse then the stock tune. Remember to lock out O/D and to turn off Trac Control. You should be running a 14.5-14.7 stock so with your mods you should run anywhere from a 13.9-14.2. Takes practice at the track......
P.S. It is summer time right now, heat is a bad thing for the 4.6. What was your humidity??? Being to dry is not good also. Also your elevation is high so that will play a factor into it also......Keep trying. Once you dial in your car you will be happy....I'm looking for a 13.5-13.7 next time out to the track. Set a goal and once you reach that goal then move forward....

RE: 1/4....wtf?
There are stock new edge autos ive seen run a 14.0x in good elevation with good humidity...
The Cobra trapped so low probably because of the elevation, possibly humidity, and heat - the more humidity, and the higher the heat, the harder it is to compress and blah blah blah... I know my GT trapped 4mph slower with the same ET in july then it did in Feb.
