Well I DID technically BOLT the procharger on. 
And I'm by all means not bashing RX-7s. Hell I own one and its hella fun to drive even if its slow as all hell (non turbo). But other than the exhaust tone I LOVE the cars! :bigthumg:

Hey I guess whatever floats you guys' boats. But I wanna ask, does an RX-7 with an exhaust sound like a lawnmower to you?

Snake - Whats up!! This dude used to hang at team FC3S too. Its sad how many car haters there are in this world. I love all cars. BTW- I have a '00 GT Vert going in for a S/C next summer at Steeda.
Snake Aren't you in FLa?? We need to hook up some time I want to see that Cobra.

Nah, I'm in the upper part of South Carolina. I thought it was funny when I raced this guy cause I knew I was gonna beat him. I mean hell with low 600hp what the hell can't you beat ya know? But yea my Cobra is pretty much maxed out power wise. I mean I COULD go over to turbo and have about 800 or so but nah. I actually want a Z06 to see what I can get out of it staying N/A. But that is later down the road. Jim you should see the new Cobra I got. A 2003 Vert. She is heavy as hell but is packing 471rwhp with only 14psi and exhaust. I cant wait to get serious with that one! But yea don't let anyone tell you guys that RX-7s aren't nice cars. Hell everyone that hears that I have a RX-7 too gets to looking like 
and asks me if it is turbo. Someone I actually got to believe me that the RX-7 had 3 cylinders and had 3 T88 turbos on it. Holy **** that would move!!

LOL 380rwhp with the GENERAL bolt ons? Hellll no! a 2001 Cobra with your usual bolt ons (headers, X pipe, Catback, intake, TB, pulleys, and MAF will only put it around 330ish RWHP. The only real N/A V8 that you guys would have to worry about that hasn't had its heads or cam changed is a LS1. Those things can easily get low 12's with your usual bolt ons. Now if its a DOHC Cobra with any kind of boost on it look out cause it will give you a damn good run! And if there is a LS1 building any kind of boost look out cause it will blow the hell up! Damn GM products.
