A Cobra with a supercharger and bolt on's wouldn't even have wetdreams of hitting those times.

ignorance at it's finest.
I had a 99 cobra, after the "fix" it put down 270 horsepower, 268 ft-lbs. I strapped on a 12 pound procharger, a star spec stage 4 clutch, an AFM power pipe, long tubes, an O/R X, a magnaflow catback, swapped the stock IRS for a GT live axle with 4.56 gears, a steeda G-trac suspension kit, 18x9 Y2K Cobra-R wheels and 305/45/18 555R's. I was hitting high 10's at 125 MPH with bolt ons, and good driving. The heads or intake never came off the car, and it was my daily driver up untill last summer. Did I mention it put down almost 500 on pump gas? Try and get a civic to run on pump, with the stock rods, crank, pistons, head, intake, throttle body, and without major weight reduction. Don't feel so proud that your fully built drag car beat a bolt on car buddy.
