Default Cobb R35 GTR - Modified Tuner Shootout

The next issue of Modified Magazine will have the complete results and write up... A good friend Geoff (Full-Race) participated with a customer's daily driven STI street car running a Full-Race Twin-Scroll kit...

Here's what I was able to find already posted on the net...

, someone is 5 seconds off on time attack

for over 600whp the 116mph trap seems pretty weak

GTR 11.4 @ 123mph & 11.3 @ 124mph & 11.3 @ 123mph NICE........ BC 1:55:37 (14.27@107) & 1:51:34 (13.1@120mph) & 1:48:25 13.2 @ 117mph117mph even that FWD civic got a 13.2...not bad...
Through out the video you see the gtr running very consistant times

I ran a 13.695 N/A with my VQ with simple bolt ons. I know firebird sucks but damn! That car is a joke and so is the driver!

i agree...i know you had like the invidia g200, basically only thing that was making you power in yoru n/a setup, maybe you should start calling yourself a profesional driver too

I find it ironic the last two times Scott drove a car that we prepped, he finished 1st and 2nd, all the while complaining about the work we did...the car sucked....it caught on fire...leaked fluid. With a month to prep on his own, he placed himself squarely back of the pack.

I told him, those Forged stickers are worth at least 2-3 seconds....they should have left them on!

AMEN brothas!!!!!

That car and it's driver are ROFLtastic!!!!!!! And Jorge is right about that car sounding like *** on the top end. I don't know how anyone could possibly underperform any worse with 600+ whp.

This makes me so anxious for Intense to get my G done and back in my hands. I will be making similar whp numbers. I will beat the BC car's 1/4 mile time by over 2 seconds with me as the driver.

Yeah, I said it. Mark the day and time of this post folks. ROFLtastic Autosports and their minions can put that in their pipes and smoke it.

I believe there's somoene on these forums with an 07 who hit 13.1, in fact I'm positive plenty of people have done it with just boltons of course (exhaust,etc). Firebird ftmfl.

why?, granted conditions could have been shitty, its still no excuse for a 600whp car to not hit low 12s at the very worst

Is the Cobb GT-R stock as far as tune and boost goes?

It had high flow cats, and 3.5" cat-back with no mufflers. That's it for power. It had stock wheels and tires at the drag strip. And it had some prototype coilover sleeves. It also had race seats and harnesses. On the road course and autocross it had Volk Progressive ME 19" wheels with Toyo R888 tires.

Nice! Any word on how much it gained from the cats and exhaust?

I forgot to mention, we had the AP flash on it also. But it had no power tuning done. It was just a speed limiter removal.

It's hard to say what the exhaust and cats gained. We went up about 30 HP on our dyno. However, that 30 HP also includes a speed limit removal which allowed us to do a 4th gear pull instead of a 3rd gear pull. So a lot of that power could have been from being in a gear that loads the engine better.

Before we release the AP and exhaust, we will test all that in the proper fashion. But for now, I really don't have a good answer for you.
