I just purchased a brand new Cobra intake & elbow and I have a few questions.
Eventually, this will be a mild H/C/I car, but for now the intake is going on alone. I was wondering what type of mid range/peak gains to expect with a stock bottom end with this intake, as well as any low-end losses. Any of you guys running a cobra on an otherwise stock motor?

Also, does anyone have a good installation link for this manifold on our cars?

Thanks,

Scott

My engine is stock and the cobra gave my very nice gain in mid-top end power. It's a direct swap it can give you up to 15rwhp on a stock motor.

Heres a step by step process for the edelbrock intake. Same concept.

Works if you have Adobe.

There won't be any significant losses down low changing from a stock lower intake.

Thanks for the input guys. A 15 rwhp gain would be very nice, but with my aode, I'll be happy with a gain of 10-11 hp to the wheels without any significant loss down low.

MadHandle8169, thanks a ton for that link. It's been printed and saved.
