400whp GTI vs 540whp Cobra
A friend recently picked up a super clean SN95 Cobra with a blower, made 540whp on the same dyno I use.
Going to get together this weekend for a few fun runs. It's a stick car on DRs vs my car on street tires. Probably go from 60mph because it's still cold here. In the spring he'll be making 200whp more, so it's now or never lol.
I've got a pretty good weight advantage but it's not going to make up for 140whp.
Curious as to predictions on how many car lengths I'm losing by...
