It would if the STI doesn't get a good start,they both trap about the same stock,and I'm not sure a STI would trap as good as one without a killer start.

From personal experience I can say stock or close to stock STI's are low to mid 13 second cars on average. I've lost to them whenmy SRT-4was (stage 2 & street tires)and I've beat them (stage 2 and slicks) at the track in the past 2 years. I don't think they'd have trouble with a 97 cobra.

RE: Cobra vs. STI
im tired of this, im not makin this up, alright, at cecil county drag way i saw a quote 03 cobra only mod was an exhasut run a 12.5. the guy had all out drag slicks but thats all, first off second off stock w/out slicks yea ur right they run a 13.0-12.9 , but they dont have traction is the reason for that.

Hmm...13.5 second on the sti, and 12.9 on the terminator = .6 seconds...
And since a terminator can't beat a stock stiby more than .5 seco....wait a minute...
Please don't give inacurate info in this forum. Stock for stock there is'nt more than ahalf a second difference TOPS!!!!
Stock termies average (12.9 to 13.1)
stock STI's average (13.2 to 13.5)

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha rotflmao, yea right, the difference between a terminator and a sti stock for stock, is more than a second, and stock those sn cobras with real sticky tires run 13.40's all day, and with those mods 13.2 with good tires is def possible. damn u need to learn more

No way he is that low with those mods. I would say mid 13's at best. A modded STi would smoke you off the line and keep pullin. It's hard enough for a stockterminator to be a stock STi, much less a stockN/A cobra.
ur car isa 13.8 stock, w/ ur mods and goood tires i would say 13.2 at best

RE: Cobra vs. STI
Hey I have gained respect for those subbys having racing a legacy. Now im thinking a legacy is basically a wrx and it gave me a run. Of course it took off on me though by the time we hit fourth I had put maybe a length if that. A wrx would probably beat me depending on how he took off, and I know an STI would rape me. If I didnt have those CAs put in I would of probably lost against a legacy. I did notice from a roll I was able to put more than one length on him, those cars are BEASTS from a dig.

also, alot of guys are afraid to launch their STI's right. they go too low and bog and lose quite a bit of time and momentum. a well driven sti will hit low 13s, but without that magic launch u are looking in the far end there. 13.8ish maybe

RE: Cobra vs. STI
My friends STI was running mid 13's at 98-99mph. Has a few mods but only second time at the track and his clutch was messed up. He's upgraded his clutch since then and keeps asking when are we heading to the track.
