My brother, my friend with the Cobra, and I tried to get a cruise going today, but alot of people were busy and there was alot going on, so we ended up being the only ones out there (early in the year though, plenty of time for more cruises!).  
We decided to line up the Z28 and the Cobra.

His car is a 2003 Cobra with bolt-ons (stock manifolds), ported blower, and drag radials. It made 498 rwhp and 480 rwtq in a Mustang Dyno. Absolutely beautiful car.

My Z28 is a 2002, M6, with Trickflow heads, cam, bolt-ons, and a Moser 12-bolt with 3.73’s. I just installed a FAST 90/90, but haven’t gotten it retuned yet. We knew I was down on power, so I opened my cutout, which was worth 10 rwhp and 14 rwtq last year, but with the new intake I have no idea.

![http://i660.photobucket.com/albums/uu330/ScreaminRedZ/IMG_1714.jpg](http://i660.photobucket.com/albums/uu330/ScreaminRedZ/IMG_1714.jpg)

PSM road in the Cobra and I was alone in my car. We both started in 1st gear and ended around 140 mph.

It was a great run and I was suprised by how well I did. My friend said he spun a little on the hit, but that it wasn’t that bad. I really don’t know what my car is making right now for power, and I’ve never opened the cutout on the street before. The car did feel great this run.

We all had a blast despite it being a little chilly out. Thanks for watching, guys!

_**UPDATE  
Sounds like the Cobra has knock in the motor now, probably rod knock. I’m sure that explains the outcome.**_

Thanks man, it sounds good at WOT, but sounds like crap just driving around. I always drive it with the cutout closed and it sounds great like that IMO.
