On the first run it was detonating. I thought that was kinda funny. I did not even powershift and I could of picked up another tenth just by that. I was chirping third real good. I was launching about 3400 rpm and flooring it at around 4000 rpm. My Cobra stock before the horsepower "fix" ran 13.95 at 102. Post fix it ran 13.495 at 104.91 both with sixty foot times in the 2.2. The 13.4 was a whimm as it consistantly ran 13.5 @ 104 when it was stock. It sure is a lot more fun to burn out in a GT.

I do still experiance wheel hop. The only real way to rid yourself of it is to never spin the tires. Stiffening up the suspension does help the threshhold as to when it begins. I have gotten a coupla 2.1 60ft but they are few and far between. Next step is drag radials and stiffer shocks in the rear. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>01 Cobra</b> <br /><small>Member # 571</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,4,24,22,55,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> cool, thanks man, i got steeda bushing but im waiting on the gear install to put them in.
