I would put my money on the Stang.
390hp with a manual tranny is deadly.

The 2001 Cobra wishes it had 390hp.

You're thinking of the 2003 Cobra. The 2001 Cobra only has like 65hp.


Kidding, they claim it has 320hp.

'01 Cobra
0-60: 4.8
1/4: 13.5

'94 Trans Am
0-60: 5.6
1/4: 14

Uh, blade, that's a 2001 Mustang... only 320hp, if you believe their advertising.

The T/A has a little more torque off the line, but the Mustang should still beat it to 60mph, and after that, the Mustang has more top end.

It's even enough that if the driver of the T/A is good, and the driver of the Mustang isn't, that the T/A could win.

You've confused the supercharged 2003 Cobra with a stock output of 390HP with a 2001 Cobra with 320 (after factory fix).

Either way, my money's on the Cobra, unless the guy can't drive, since the TA driver only has to keep his foot planted...

They HP mis rating was a case were the engine's intake had be designed and was dynoed at the HP. Then there was a post-design change which screwed up the intake manifolds alignment which caused airflow issues giving less HP. The fix was a simple intake swap to get the advertised 320.
