I picked up an 01 cobra w/ 9400 miles last April. It's all stock except K&N Cold Air and Magnaflow cat back exhaust, so minimal work done. Does anyone know the max HP the car can handle from the factory? Also, any estimates on the HP I have now with the intake and cat back?

124 views and no replies...wow.

I'll help ya out.

You prolly have around 280-290RWHP right now. You should buy a Vortec and run 8-10 lbs on a safe tune and good fuel. You should put down around 425-450RWHP.

If you feel like switching out your internals I heard that some NA stroker kits can help get you close to 500 to the wheels. Oops, you're probably not paying attention to this old thread no more.
