04 Cobra vs 09 CTS-V

[jojomofo21]

Ran a buddy of mines cts-v sedan today. His mods are full bolt ons, full 3" exhaust and a tune. Dynoed at 566/563 to the wheels. I cannot believe how strong these cars are! I am just a 2.3 whipple car with a sra swap. Dynoed at 566/530 on a super conservative tune. All runs done from 40-120. Enjoy.

[mebetter]

Cobra is nasty, it made the ctsv look like it wasn't even racing~

 

[1Bad04Mystic]

Nice man good runs, I still love those CTS-Vs too

 

[lunatikgixxer]

seriously you walked him you sure you guys have identical horsepower number or is there a driver mod issue? lol makes me love cobras even more

 

[f ê r]

Power to Weight.

Holy chit!!!

Nice to see a video of a cobra winning! Feel like I see so many of us losing recently

It seems like your friend wasn't in the right gear. You were instantly pulling right off the hit and if he's making the #'s you say he is then something isn't right. I still think you would win, but that wasn't close at all. So why do you say you can't believe how strong they are when he couldn't even hang?

lol

Yes

I ran one after i got lt's and it had at least a catback. We did a 70mph in 3rd gear roll and i pulled him with ease. At 70 it's not easy pulling away from a car that's fast. Compared to my run with one this race sounds legit. Op you're car sounds really good and nice kill.

Considering the CTSV's weight, I would have liked to seen him get the hit to make things a little more fair.

It an auto with the select shift thingy. I'm pretty sure he was having traction issues also with those 19s and all that torque. I put about a bus on him every time from 40 to 120-130. I had just had my car dynoed the day before and for some reason I think those numbers are bs. The car is stupid fast and pulls like a raped ape. Identical setups are making over 600 easily. I was still very impressed with how a 4200 lb 4 door car can hang like that. And his exhaust setup is disgusting.

You should have had the vert down! Lol. Good races!

 

[bleedingfordblu]

^ agreed!

either way good work Ryan! cant wait for spring to bring the mach back out.... i have a few tricks up my sleeve

 

[Crimson2v]

Good runs, your car sounds great. What exhaust combo do you have? Also how do you like the solid axle swap? I have been tossing the idea of a solid axle back and forth, I just hate having wheel hop. I have a buddy of mine who wrecked his mustang and wants to sell the rear end from it, so I figured I could snatch it up. Did the solid axle change the driving dynamics of the car at all in any negative way?

 

[Smacked_in_ATL]

Not a fair race! But good daytime footage!

 

[svt4me38]

Looks like ffx county parkway.....

 

[svt4me38]

Who tuned and dynoed your car?

 

[jojomofo21]

Thanks! It was 40* outside. To hell with putting the top down. Lol. The car was dynoed on a in ground dynojet at excessive performance in manasass va.

The solid axle swap is a MUST for vert cobras making over 500 hp IMO. The wheel hop in my car was so extreme it vibrated the gasket out from in between the spoiler and trunk and cracked the 3rd brake light in 2 places. The only downside I would have to say is I cannot corner as fat as I used to but that's not important to me. Mines a full built 31 spline 96 GT rear with 3.73s. Love it.
