Heh, my threads seem to get hi-jacked quite a bit. Oh well.
That's what the threads are for I suppose.


About the cobra vs. the mach...the cobra is obviously the more powerful car, BUT, the mach is much much cooler. I also saw a stock 03 mach with slicks run a 12.99 lastnight. Impressive.

Mach1's are worlds easier to launch than the Cobra. The Mach1 suspension rocks your socks from a dig. Cobra's, although people rarely use them for this, actually handle damn well cause of their IRS.

If only GM would of IRS'd a Fbody... if only.

Re: SS/SC Vs. 03+ V6 Tibby

Yup, thats pretty much the way it goes. Live axle is always better choice in the 1320. The machs actually handle fairly well for being a strait axle car though in thier defense. Although, nothing like the Cobras.

Re: SS/SC Vs. 03+ V6 Tibby

Good kill. When I dynoed my WS6 I kinda felt for this guy that was at the shop that had a Tiburon. He added a catback exhaust and a CAI. First my car was dynoed, and I was pissed cause it initially only had 337whp, he thought my car was a monster. By the end of the day, and my 351whp dyno, he dynoed his tiburon to the tune of 148whp That's gotta suck.

Did he have the V6 Tibby? That sounds more like the 4 cyl to me. Because I've heard the 6 cyl's take to those monor bolt on's pretty well. Poor guy. Was he a bit let down?

Re: SS/SC Vs. 03+ V6 Tibby

It was the V6 Tibby. He left right afterwards. Dude didn't even say goodbye, eventhough he chatted with me for like 2 hours. I think he was pissed off.

Re: SS/SC Vs. 03+ V6 Tibby

That's like what, 185 crank hp? That's reasonable for a V6 Tibby...his expectations were probably just too high...you aren't gonna hit 200whp with just a couple of bolt ons.
