First let me start off by saying that I have never taken this car to the dyno or track, so I have no substantial proof to back up my situation other than the SOTP meter.
I like the combo that I have now. The low end is great, and it pulls hard up to about 5000 RPM. I knew going in that the pull would level off around that RPM. I thought that RPM would be fine being a street car, because I didn't think that I would be spinning it that high that much. But since I've have had this combo for a little while, I think I am getting used to it. I also like to stomp on it every time I drive it now. I would like to get it to pull hard to 6000 RPM. I suspect the intake to be the culprit. I have heard the Cobra is notorious for dying in the upper RPM's. Is there any thing I can do without changing the intake to something bigger?
My combo:
Cobra intake, TMOSS ported lower
AFR 165's
1.6 RR
TFS Stage 1 cam
80mm maf
65mm TB
1 5/8" eaqual length MACs
O/R H pipe
2 chamber flowmasters
U/D pulleys
30# injectors
3:73's
That's all I can think of right now for engine mods.
What do you guy's think. Is there anything that I can do? Is the cam causing some issues?
