My buddy has a 04 cobra with long tube headers, K&N intake, x pipe, and high boost pully. he wanted me to ask you guys what you think he should do next. what would be best bang for the buck in terms of a low price helping a lot with power and 1/4 mile? thanks for replies
I would say finish off the full exhaust with a nice catback, and there are many choices. Do a search and you will find mucho info. I would also say ditch the stock shifter and go with Pro 5.0, Steeda, or the new MGW, night and day between stock and them. Top it all off with a handheld tuner. I would recommend Diablosport Predator. You said your boy has a smaller pulley so I would assume he has had the car tuned? The Predator will do that and give you some more power while keeping everything safe. Good luck.
I really don't think a tb is necessary. The stock twin is just fine for the power he is making. You usually don't see aftermarket tb going on until you install a KB or Whipple. I think the bigger tb helps with all the new found boost. If he is set on a new tb though, nothing looks hotter than the polished Accufab. Don't see it improving your power any.

If you can get one, go with a Billetflow...most likely you won't be able to acquire one though... they haven't started production back up. The Accufab would be my next choice.

You may see some torque differences from the stocker, but not much. I would have your friend check out amazon racings ported stock TB and pendlum. Also, a ported blower wouldn't be a bad idea, although he would need a new tune. People are seeing big numbers in the mid range just the the tB and pendlum port, upwards of 22 HP in the mid range from the combo. Add a port matched blower to the mix, maybe 60 HP? And i think you can get it all for like 700 right now..
No, I won't agree completely... but I will say the minimal gains he may see won't be worth the money spent! He states he's running a "High Boost" pulley, so the larger single blade will help a little, but not much. If he were to port the blower then it would make a bigger difference. The ported stock TB and plenum as mentioned by MiamiFan1354 would actually be a better upgrade for the money.
I would also warn against looking into existing Billetflow TB's. Doug himself has said they have yet to find a permanent fix for the sticking problem. Damn nice looking piece though!
