I'm not sure if i was toyed with or not.. last night i was on the way to tweeter to get some work done, (more on that when its done) i came to a stop light next to a mustang cobra.. mid 90's ish kinda year. we didn't gun it from the get go, but both didn't want to be out-gunned by the other and stayed about even. another red light and i had pulled behind him because of a soccer mom in a friggen excursion.. he gunned it and so did i. i actually had to let off twice to stop from rear ending him.. then i changed lanes and pulled up to his door before we both let off.

from the sound of his engine it was wound out.. it didn't sound like he missed a shift at all either. so i'm not sure what to think. i thought they were faster.. my only mod is a 72mm TB and a cheesy home brew intake. for the moment

mid 90s were only like 260-275 hp. My friend has a 98 cobra. feels fast but they are not as powerful as stated by the manufacturer. His was suppose to be 305 hp but no where near that. I stayed up next to him in my shelby before i even did any work to it. Either way go put that nitrous on and go smoke em!

98 Dakota Sport V6: 8.95@77.9 mph (1/8th)
99 Oldsmobile Alero GL3 V6: xx@xx mph

I know of several mid 90's GT's with 4.6 motors (a few of them have auto trannies) that are usually only good for 14.6 to 14.9 ET's in the 1/4 mile.....

If you've got the 3.92 rear and a 72 mm TB and some exhaust work, I think you pretty much had a level playing field.

If that's the case, then nice work....

actually all that crap is sitting in boxes waiting to go on guys.. i had "waiting to be installed" but accidentally deleted it when i took off all the mods but performance related ones. still waiting for the heads to get done. just waiting on 110lb valve springs.

allow me to correct my mistake. sorry for getting your panties in a wad, polchartude
