the hell are you talking about? The 03/04 Cobra is arguably the best mustang cobra ever made.

A friend just bought one for 17k that has a whipple and makes 500whp.

You must be thinking of an 01 or something.

Doubtful. I did a pile of high rpm clutch drops on my 01 GT with a 150 shot on too-big mickey's and it was fine....and it didnt have the bigger spline axles or rear that the cobra does. an IRS brace and itll be fine.

He just needs some decent tires, but even with crap tires nothing any of his friends have can come anywhere close....but yeah i'd hope a 30,000$ Z with 15,000$ in upgrades would beat a 17000$ cobra.

The 03/04 Cobra ran 12.9 out of the box. There are stock Z's doing that on here. Considering the Cobra makes 390hp/390tq out of the box the real weakness is in its IRS. Even with the whipple you'll make the #'s but you'll never put it down. You would have to swap out to a 2004 Mustang GT solid axle to get consistent traction. Of course if you do so you lose the little handling capabilities the IRS gave the 03/04 cobra. Undoubtedly a great car, 4.6L cast iron factory S/C but it won't be able to run with an S/C stg2 Z. Now if you want to talk about price and bang for the buck that's kind of dumb considering you're talking about a car almost 10 years old, of course the aftermarket is dirt cheap even by mustang standards now. The 03/04 Cobra is heavy, handles poorly and has nothing going for it except that engine which has been eclipsed by the new 5.0. Time to move on man, I was on the verge of getting a Cobra before the Z but I can't live in the past. 17K if not paid in full, will lead to an upside down auto loan, which blows!

He didn't tell me anything and you weren't going to either. Thinking the Z is superior to the Cobra when taking into the consideration of the time difference of their production and technologies at the time is fool hardy. Look at the Z you had in production at that time....a 350z that couldn't outrun a mustang GT from that same era.

Question for Sam or anyone else here..

So us Stage 1 guys are making like ~400-430whp and something like 320-340tq. Stage2 gets a big bump in HP but only seeing a small bump in tq numbers, 365 and 350 on the first 2 dyno's. Is that to be expected with an SC setup or is that just with our cars in general?

Also, any word on an upgrade path from Stage1 yet Sam?
