95 Tsi Vs. 98 Cobra

[95redtransam]

Tonight I was at a gas station and a guy was talking crap in his 98 Cobra. So we decided to race. We went from about 15 mph. Through first we were side by side, second still the same, third still the same. Then I went to fourth and at about 110 he pulled on me. I stopped then. I was very surprised at how even we were. We pulled over after that and he told me that he was a 5 spd with intake and exhaust, I saw under the hood. He was going crazy when he saw that I only had an intake and boost guage. Im a 5 spd FWD by the way. So all in all Im very happy. Now I need to slap on my boost control and BOV and I should blow him away. Let me know if you think that sounds about right.

Rolling starts with fwd = ...98 Cobras aren't that fast.They are suppose to run 13.9s I believe(if you can drive). My friend has one and I beat it with only acouple mods. Not to talk crap on cobras but some are over rated.

What turbo are you running?

 

[PantyDropperGST]

Says t25

 

[Red95DSM]

Preety damn good(T25) to stay with the Cobra.

 

[95redtransam]

Yea t-25
I really thought he would kill me considering stock for stock he has like a second advantage. But I raced a 95 gt the other day and beat him. He had intake, exhaust, pulleys, throttlebody, 5spd. So I guess thats right.

Do not street race.
