Do you guys think i will feel a noticable gain stepping up from 5 psi to about 9-10 psi on my 94 cobra? (Powerdyne blower)

LOL...
It's rule of thumb..15hp per lb.

I'd say 40-50 hp easily
DO IT DO IT!
Well it is a powerdyne so u may not feel it

I got my car a month ago and it felt pretty quick in the beggining but after taking a ride in my buddies subaru (300 to the wheels) my car feels sluggish i need something to pep it up a little, it just does not seem to pull hard enough (push you back into your seat), what do you guys think i should do? please help

Heres what i have so far:
94 cobra
powerdyne at 6 lbs
fms shorty headers (I'll probably do longtubes very soon)
stock mid pipe
bassani catback
stock gears

Twisted Wedge Heads! That'll wake your car up a lot. Find a used set on here or corral. I got my heads, cam, rockers, and pushrods for 950 with less than 3000 miles on everything. Raise your boost up to 12-12psi, change out the mid pipe to either an X or H pipe with high flowing cats. That should be enough for you to be more than pleased with how your car feels for awhile... until you get used to it and want to go faster

Def need a new offroad pipe..lol
I'd run 8psi..your heads/intake are ok..if you wanna make some serious power get a nice set of heads.
If you up the boost make sure you have the fuel to go with.
80mm Maf, 70mm TB will help a lil also.

Oh ya...
Ona blower car its all about exhaust..I bet with a nice offroad H/X you will have big gains..teamed with LT's you'll be suprised how much powa u had bottled up.

And 5-6psi isn't nuthin...you need atleast 8-10.
