depending on who spins and who grips, him by numbers, depending on when he sprays. well, him.....once he gets to 3rd/4th and sprays, he'll probably pass you. let us know what happens if it goes down

Put a 100 shot in yours and when he passes you hit it and laugh as you fly by.

hmm if you think you can outdrive him go from a dig. remember with nitrous it adds a ton of torque. when i dyno'd my 50 shot it added 50 to the wheels hp wise and 90 lbs of tq to the wheels. now with the 100 its obviously more. so that thing will have some nice numbers so it could be deadly on the highway as well but cobras are beasts on the highway from what i hear but i don't know anyone with them so my knowledge stops at GT's and LS1's.

do a pully swap and tune it and then walk him[8D]

Well i'd love to pully/tune and run 100 shot, but father disagrees with the idea of making the warranty void.

i agree. this kid i know just did a pully swap on his lightning and the engine blew. not sure if that was the reason but it happened like a week later. but yeah i don't agree on modding a car til it atleast has 50-60 k miles on it. also if you father disagrees how old are you? your lucky to have a Cobra is your real young. but i'd work on your launch and try to get him outta the whole and make him play catch up with the spray. i mean if he has that much of a shot and sprays to early he most likely will get major spinage especially if on street tires.

Well he obviously didn't have a tune with it.

And 50k-60k!!!!! Are you kidding me?? Dude, you need to re-think that one. By that time if you add a serious power adder it can be even worse then adding it to an engine thats too young. I think about 15k is ideal.
