No, I didnt think it was a cobra because you dont have the cobra hood, rims, or front bumper....which is very odd.

Nice charger, what whp you at?

OIC. My Cobra is a 95. The 94/95 Cobra's do NOT have the 'nostrils' on the hood and the bumper says "MUSTANG" like the V6's. The word "COBRA" didn't appear until the 96-03 model year Cobra (except 99's). All these little nuances make it seem like a fake Cobra to non-mustang owners. Within the mustang world, almost everyone knows by looking at the wing, rims & lower front fascia.

As far as rwhp, i'm not sure. I never dyno'd the car. The only measure i have as to how much power it really has is that i've beaten a few lighly modded 03/04 Cobra's without breaking too much of a sweat. That was at 9#'s of boost....never raced anyone with 16#'s of boost.

Get rid of the 20" wheels... they slow you down like crazy... If you want to race and enjoy it by winning, dont go bigger than 17" ... improve your driving skills and you should have no problem with eating a stock ES for lunch... You definitely wont be able to keep up with the G35, but a 3.2TL or 328 shouldnt be a problem...
