Also, the handling issue. Going fast in a straight line is fine, but I'm not driving for a pissing contest. I want to go out in the country where no one is around and drive like a fugging bat out of hell. When was the last time you saw a bat fly in a straight line?
Slalom:
Cobra - 65.4 mph
S2k - 67.2

Really, how much of a differance is that?

No it doesnt; it bounced its way to success. Really, im one of the biggest Cobra fans there are. That post was pro-cobra, incase that was in question.

Edit: I know that sig. SVTPerformance?

False. KBs are weak. You cant call yourself a man untill you get a turbo.

To build the engine that can take it? If you have a '03/'04 Cobra, nothing at all. They've been pushed past 900hp on the stock block.

You can slap a KB blower on an 03+ Cobra for less than $4K and push well over 600RWHP safely. The motor is a monster and is probably more mod friendly than the hailed Supra TT's. I left plenty of modded Supras wondering what happened when I had my Cobra....Raw power.
