    U.M. and other Knowledgeable Stangers

    Dan, am I missing something with your sig? Is there more on your profile? What all are you running? Your hp and tq levels are right where I'd love to be. I have been reading all evening about the KB's and am very interested in possibly exploring that route. What's your opinion on the whole...

    U.M. and other Knowledgeable Stangers

    U.M, you are correct about my current and future mods. In your opinion, would I be better off to run with the current set-up, which runs excellent right now, for the next few months and save up the rest of the money and get a KB 2.3 or 2.8? I want the power reguardless of the additional parts...

    U.M. and other Knowledgeable Stangers

    Ok, thanks for the help. But I still don't think we are talking about the same noise from the air filter. The noise is not when I'm in the boost. It's just when gently accelerating. It's not the blower whine, it's more of a higher pitched whistle. Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems to come from...

    U.M. and other Knowledgeable Stangers

    Ok, you guys have given me several answers to all of the questions I have had since buying my 03 cobra. Here's my next one: First, let me start by telling you as much as I can about the car. From what I was told (from the dealership) the car has a 2.93 upper pulley (I can verify this) an...

    2003 Z06 Should I buy it?

    The z06 is a sharp, classy car, but I'll stick to my cobra. The vette may hold it's resale value and everything else everyone is saying, but have you ever been stuck to the back of your seat with the blower on a terminator whining while pushing 16psi, slapped third gear and felt your cheeks...

    2003 Z06 Should I buy it?

    none of you guys posting own a terminator cobra I guess??? Hands down, a cobra with a few cheap and minor mods will flat smoke a z06. Trust me.... But hey, the z06's are still sharp cars. But do you really want to cross over to the other side???? Just my opinion. That and 2 quarters will...

    Pulley change and belt issue

    Do they make an aftermarket idler kit? I've got one that's got a little sqeak to it now and i'm sure it won't last long. Can you bypass some of the idlers, or what? I just looked at the steigmeir website about porting and I had no idea that they are only 30 minutes from my house. Everyone...

    Pulley change and belt issue

    Thanks U.M and RB 88. Just one more question... What's the difference in adding a 2lb lower and just going to the next size smaller upper? Would really like to go to a KB or something later, so these mods are probably just temp. Also, is there anything we can do about all those damn...

    Pulley change and belt issue

    Thanks for the help. What do you mean by pegging the MAF? I planned to upgrade to 2 of the GT fuel pumps, so the fuel pump issue really isn't a problem. What is a MAF extender and what do they cost? Any advice about a cold air kit? I was looking at the JLT kits. They offer 2 seperate...

    Pulley change and belt issue

    You don't think the belt may just be a little loose? I thought I'd go get another belt and while I've got the old one off, check the bearings in the idlers. With the ported blower and a 2lb lower, will I need to have the car tuned again? I'm at 464 rwph right now, according to the dyno...

    Pulley change and belt issue

    well, it's me again. With yet another question. I think I already know some of the answers but I just want to hear it from the experts. My blower belt sqeaks. Especially after it gets warmed up and I rev it a little an let off of it. The idler pullies are a little blackened so I assume...

    Cooling System Mods on 03 Cobra

    I dropped the car off at a local shop in town on my way to work yesterday morning. They mechanic acted like I was making a mistake and told me he wouldn't be help responsible if it caused problems. But I told him to remove it anyway. It was finished when I got off work and it hasn't...

    Cooling System Mods on 03 Cobra

    The removal of the PPRV apparently fixed my hisitation when shifting. The cooling mods you are talking about... what do these cost? I can do the work myself, or at least I think I can, so installation costs or time is not of great concern. I've completely gone thru several 5.0 cars, and even...

    Cooling System Mods on 03 Cobra

    Ok, the advise I got from you guys about my cobra bogging between shifts fixed the problem. Now I have a new question... I see and hear everyone talking about cooling mods. Where do I start with this? What all do I need and what is the best brands to buy. Not exactly working with an...

    my 03 cobra boggs when shifted

    Is the PPRV in the tank along with the fuel pump? What will I need to remove it? Thanks for everyone for giving me their ideas. If the PPRV is the problem, will it hesitate every time or can it come and go like mine does? Took a ride last night and never felt it once. Then today, it came...

    my 03 cobra boggs when shifted

    all I know is what i got from the dealer. he told me a pulley, exhaust, air filter and the guy had it tuned on the dyno. Have dyno sheet to show numbers. I think the blower has been apart cause it has marks on it to show how the pieces line up. Not sure about the amount of boost, but it...

    my 03 cobra boggs when shifted

    thanks for the info. the bogging is when i just shift slowly. Never driven a supercharged car before, so the whole experience is new to me. do I need to shift faster when leaning on the boost? The front end rattles I notice mostly when backing out of the driveway. Sounds maybe like a...

    my 03 cobra boggs when shifted

    hello. I tried to post this earlier but I guess it didn't go thru. Just bought my first 03 cobra. Got a deal, but need to work the bugs out. 1. tonight on the way home from work, ran car up to about 4500 in third, shifted to fourth and car bogged for a split second. Same thing going to...
