Should a modded EVO beat a Cobra from a roll?

I've driven one and I must say it felt so weird driving one, but I couldn't stop grinning while I was driving it. The car is such a monster I absolutely love the 03/04 Cobras. That in the summer I may trade in one of My Evo's for one.

when i had my 03 cobra it had a ported blower, 2.93 upper pulley, 4lb lower pulley, full exhaust, intake, tune, LFP heat exhanger, ET Streets, and I took a little weight out of it, and I was going 11.0 @ 127. All those mos cost about 4000 installed by myself and the car looked bone stock. So be careful. Even almost stock I went 12.3 @ 117 w/ only a pulley and a tune on stock tires.

i ran a bone stock 03 cobra in my IX MR with just an hks carbon ti catback.... we ran from a second gear roll and basically when we shifted, the lead changed... at 120-130 or so i had him by about 1/4 car...his front bumper was at my driver door... we had to slow down there. honestly i thought i was going to get beaten pretty bad, but i didn't. at the track the best i've run with that setup is a 12.8 with a 1.8 60' so with a better 60' i know the car is capable of 12.6 or better.

Thought i'd share my info seeing as i just came from a fairly modded 03 Cobra.
Mine had a KB 2.6L running 21 psi of boost, SCT MAF, 60# inj, VP 100 Unleaded, 17 MT DR's, CB, X pipe w/o cats, and a CAI.
Best time before i sold her was 10.79 and quickest was 137 mph.
This was done in full street trim/weight and was driven to and from the track 2hrs each way.
Was able to get the 60's in the 1.5x range w/ just Steeda springs.
Now that i have the Evo i would say that to hang with a Cobra like mine you'd have to have a fair amount of mods to keep up.
