> _Originally posted by silvrhand_ > **turbo + manual + IRS = total PITA…** where was there a turbo manual irs car in that video? and i disagree with you…most turbo cars need spool time, so are not launching in full boost.

> _Originally posted by BlueZ28_ > **mustangs are known to be one of the most difficult cars to hook up, due to their terrible rear suspension, and the cobra is def not easier due to its IRS.** whats so bad about mustang rear suspensions they are running low 8’s on dr’s with stock style suspensions we just did a bunch of work to a buddys 03 cobra and at full weight on factory rubber he went 12.40’S bogging bad out of the hole so the irs cars are hooking as well ---
