bro is thinking on buying it, which means shortly afterwards he will be saying how much faster he is. since we live on opposite ends of the continent actually seeing isn't possible. so could it be 600rwhp?

If he's pushing around 20psi. boost through the Whipple along with supporting mods it will make those numbers.

It's possible and most likely that yes the car is making 600+rwhp. Hell, a ported Eaton will get you 500+ and a TVS2300 can easily take you to 600+ as well. So seeing as the Whipple Twinscrews (depending on which model, tune, and inlet) can typically out power the TVS, put money on those being accurate numbers.

Wouldn't catch me buying a car that needed frame repair though, I picked mine up a year or two ago for $17k, not a problem with it. Tell him to keep looking, better, and more worth while deals are out there.

$12k? Thats tooo much

PHXLT1 · 01-20-2014, 08:28 PM

Ya what /\ he said. No telling how much damage that car has.

banter · 01-20-2014, 08:36 PM

That's way too much for a salvage in that condition.

WHAMMO · 01-22-2014, 04:11 PM

seems way too high

caper · 01-22-2014, 08:43 PM

he decided not to get it and just keep his 01 cobra conv. thanks for the replies.

cam99 · 01-22-2014, 10:55 PM

My 03 with a 2.4 kb made 608 rwhp on 19psi. Glad he is passing on that car. Its all kinds of f-ed up

OK2DRUL · 01-23-2014, 10:33 AM

Definite frame damage on that car. He'll be glad that he didn't purchase it. If he's interested in an 03/04 Cobra, there are plenty in the high teens that have no issues.

The chassis is bent man. Run away from it !!
