    More new Cobra Killer Dyno Numbers

    Congrats man, those numbers look outstanding. I wish I would have gone with bigger injectors and MAF. The standard steeda stuff runs out of steam over 400 looks like. Sounds like a great time down there.

    Cobrakiller mongoose kit/ 400hp with cats

    Just got my Mongoose kit dynoed today. I made 400rwhp/389rwtq SAE. AF ratio is fat at 11-11.5 across the board. This car still has more power left in it. But I'm happy for now. Mods and pics are in my sig link. Big thanks to Tim aka Cobrakiller at T&J performance for helping me out...

    Magnapacks should could with excedrin

    Queerbait? How about reread the post where I am trying to save people from falling for a common mistake, reading is fundamental if you want to learn on forums. Name calling isn't. Sorry if I hurt your feelings, *****.

    Magnapacks should could with excedrin

    LISTEN! the magnaflows have the exact same resonance/drone as the packs! They just don't sound as good until you are really getting on it. Don't fall for the "I want something quieter so i'll get the flows". You'll be pissed off and disappointed. My buddy wanted teh quieter ones so he got...

    Help me decide on an s/c......

    Hands down the KB cooled. Charger for charger the vortech is easier, add in the air to water intercooler and the KB is even harder. If you aren't trying to make mid 400s with enough torque to lose traction in every gear its a no brainer. The mongoose kit. Zero problems. 350hp bone stock...

    Going to T&J Performance soon (upgrades)

    Voted. Just another point to consider, every Steeda Q400 in the mags (big 3 mustang mags) I have seen is pullied for 12lbs non intercooled. I feel comfortable at 10-11 with the cooler.

    Going to T&J Performance soon (upgrades)

    The boost pipe adds 1-2lbs of boost, while the intercooler robs at least 2lbs. I think you should pulley down, to at least a 3.4 or 3.3. I am going down to a 3.2 but thats because I am at ~5000ft and we can run an extra 2lbs to combat the thin air(11 vs 9). I think the stock size isn't going...

    Going to T&J Performance soon (upgrades)

    I'm not sure how the bypass works, but I was under the assumption you could dial down that screw and it would bleed boost off. If it was set when the weather was warmer and now the charger is pushing more boost in the cold, it probably wouldn't "know" the difference? I am only speculating...

    I thought your race bypass was setup to bleed off anything over 10psi? I remmeber seeing that somewhere on the boards.

    Going to T&J Performance soon (upgrades)

    Me too, they have about 13000 miles and two opentrack days on them. I figure I'll finish them off in the first few days after the install. Luckily I have a fresh set of Falken Azenis Sports waiting in the garage. I've got a dyno day setup Jan 3 :banana: Back to the garage to finish my...

    Going to T&J Performance soon (upgrades)

    Congrats Deadlurker! :D I am half way through installing the same stuff exactly . :worship: Tim is even welding up my bypass for me and sending it back with my EEC! For anyone considering doing it, the intercooler install is really easy. Getting the bypass welded is the only hitch. :nice...

    Vortech guys in here please....

    Thats the vortech mini race bypass. Smithatlanta just made my desktop! I consider it research, since I'm installing the same setup over the holiday break.

    Cobra Killer Novi 2000 Installation Complete!!!

    Most would say Vortech is hard to beat for reliability. the Novi has better brackets from what i heard, and of course is a larger blower than the S trim. Worth the extra money? Only you can decide. think about this though, at the boost levels where the Novi will out perform the vortech the...

    Cobra Killer Novi 2000 Installation Complete!!!

    congrats man, I'm going to do my own install as well. good to hear you got through it with Tim's help. I'm starting to get parts as of Monday. After the holidays we need a new poll: How many cobrakiller cars are on SN? I bet there will be small army.

    KB or Vortech?

    Well, I just went through what you are going through and I went Vortech. I think it comes down to your needs and goals. For me, my goals weren't super high power levels and 11 sec slips. I am building my car to be well balanced fun car to drive. I didn't want a future of dyno tunes, I wanted...

    Max Motorsports Road & Track box? + torque arm?

    I have a modified version of the R&T Box with the Torque arm. So let me see, its a good all around setup, I lost a little at the drag strip do to stiffer springs. But the street handling and open track handling are light years from stock. I run the supersport springs up front with the torque...

    best brake upgrade for $500 or less

    This will provide the greatest improvement (include stainless steel lines) of all. I would only go the cobra 13" if you plan on roadracing. The stock 99&up stuff works well with good pads and lines, they just don't dissipate the heat as well under continued heavy breaking since the rotors are...
