[QUOTE="tt335ci03cobra, post: 12657054, member: 68944"] Don't be too sure on any of the gains, it depends on the condition of the car. dynopull's are a solid $75 give or take. I do agree that those mods don't add a ton of power but they add some, and they drop weight, somewhere around 50#'s front to rear, maybe more. There's also a short throw shifter which helps a good bit while shifting and drops a few lbs also. The sumitumo's may not hook like dr's but remember, the stock 01 cobra was faster to 30mph in the motortrend comparison link that was put up earlier in this thread. The stock tire is a 245 I believe so a 315 will hook better than a 245 Pirelli? (I know the gt's had those as an option). More bite than stock, and enough to help drop the 60' ft by 1-2 tenths. It's cool that amazingly prepped tracks with great drivers powershifting in low da have gotten the 01 ss to run 12.8/12.9 but even even j smith got an 01 Mach to run 13.15 and those only have 305hp. Bottom line is hero runs exist everywhere, I remember that he also got an 03 to run 12.4@114 but again, hero runs aren't the norm. Most stock z28's and ss's are running low 14's to 13.30's at 104-107 depending on the track. That isn't slow by any means and theyre great simple mod platform cars, easy gains put them deep in the 12's and 11's, but back on topic, the autos aren't usually in the 13.30 range, they tend to be closer to low 14's/high 13's. A few a4's have run 13.90-70's and a guy here probably isn't far off remembering a 13.60 but again, the norm is different. Maybe his car has a mild cam that a previous owner installed, with 170k miles, if he bought it used, it's highly possible as its very uncommon for a4's to run that fast especially at 1200-2200ft of altitude. The reason I brought up my times, even a stockish fi time was to put in perspective how I've seen cars run up here at 4300ft to explain how altitude effects times so people could see that at half the altitude, a car would still be way off sea level times so the comments about 13.60's at 2200ft were probably wrong. I didn't compare fi to na. I posted a stockish time @ mph and then also posted times of other cars as well as an na time I ran after my motor build but before turbos with 375whp. All told, one thing to correct you, fi times at altitude as in roots blown stockish cobra's (mufflers, cai) aren't very immune to altitude conditions. The thin air can't cool the blower well as it passes through the lobes, the sparser air charge creates less power in general, and all the while any air brought in has to go through a heaton anyways so after 1 or 2 runs, they go into limp mode with a factory tune. That was my first pass. 2nd and 3rd attemps were 13.80 and 14.10 at 103 and 101. Dual pass huge front mount twin turbo at altitude is entirely different, roots blown with stock cooling is a joke though, iat's can hit 140 in 3-5 minutes of hard freeway driving. [/QUOTE]
