A Jetta just schooled my Cobra

Desmo_Profundis · March 20th, 2007, 03:44 PM

I have a '95 5.0 Cobra that I've put shorty headers, K&N air filter, and flomasters on. It has also been lowered 1.5" and has 17.5lb ea. WedSport SA70 Wheels with Toyo Proxies Meats and a high performance clutch. Not that those mods add tons of horse power but it handles the curves like a dream. I consider myself, like most men I suppose, to be a good driver and feel I got everything that was to be had from the Mustang off the light and a damn Jetta just walked away from me. Now I'm on a mission to insure that won't happen again. Unfortunately it's a mission on a shoe string as I don't have a ton of money and my Italian bike along with my Latina wife have allocated most of my paycheck for them selves. What can I do to get this snake to bite? My aspiration for the car was the track, road coarse not drag strip and it seems to be fast as hell on the back roads but that Jetta chewed me up from light to light and I'm mad now. I'm not trying to make it a dragster but it has to be able to take a Jetta now and then.

I think the SN-95 computers are not very friendly to a lot of engine mods. Anyways, if you got walked on, you'll want as much of a HCI as you can afford.

In the meantime though, the best way to not get beat by a Jetta is don't race one.

Dude, have you lost your mind?!? Now how the hell would the computer react to spray?...uhhh running lean quicker than a broke old hag from Alabama!! Plus he just said he didn't have a ton of cash so how would he get nitrous, then pay another 150-200 bucks for a reflash?

I mean even if he did have the cash, I doubt automatically adding nos without doing some work to keep from popcorning your block to peices would be a wise choice

God you noobs need to read and think! Stop acting like that other idiot asking about DOHC on a true 5.0L

How much for your HCI combo? You can spray that car without ANY cpu tuning. Have you ever used nitrous before? I have, for about 6yrs on the same motor, about 40 bottles at 100-175hp. AMATURES DON'T USE NOZZZZ.... YOU'LL BLOW YOURSELF TO PIECES!

Desmo_Profundis · March 22nd, 2007, 08:48 AM

Yea, I'd like to know what was in that Jetta as well. All I know is it whistled as it left me. As for pics of my latina, I'll think about it.

I just raced him... He's got a 442 TOHC(Triple Overhead Cam) with twin T-40 turbos, 4.30 gears and individual straight pipes for each cylinder. Backed by 23 inch phatties on the back and skinnes on the front made by 2F2F Racing. Look for a jetta with a sticker of a huge guy with a sword.

Just makin me self laugh
