ive heard most people get gains of around 15rwhp from a stage 1 cam swap. Not awesome numbers (atleast compared to the old pushrods) but not too bad considering your car is going to sound mean as hell. Here is a link to a video a guy made a couple weeks ago of his car right after he installed vt stage 1 cams with open headers. Sounds AWESOME imo...

I post all these videos, dyno graphs, and track time up and people still dont know what VT stg 1 cams will do for you . LOL.

Well here is a little breakdown for you. I made 248RWHP with most boltons and a mailorder tune. (bad A/F of 14-15)
I added VT stg 1 cams, JLT RAI, BBK 75MM TB, REMOVED the electric WP that was on durring the 248 run, and got the car dyno tuned by Tim @ MPH. Made 274RWHP in 90* weather. With the electric WP (reinstalled) that # would have been around 278-280. Why did you buy cams W/O knowing anything about them? And when you get ready to install them, do a search for "installing VT cams" and you will see my LONG writeup on how to do it . Good luck

Not giving up just bringing the big brother into the mix and i always wanted to get a Cobra and for the prices that they are going for out here i couldn't resist. But my GT wont get neglected it's decently modified but the rest is on hold, and i have big plans for the GT later in the future, since th ecobra only needs a few and it's low 12 sec car possibly 11's......

Yea, its an easy way to get a fast car. But good luck with it, im sure you will LOVE it. I was thinking aout buying one last year, but they wanted too much...and besides I wouldnt have been able to part with my car lol. It was just bolton then and the power was SOO temting....but really im glad I passed now. All that extra money I would have spent on the cobra can be applied to this car. And i like being the under dog Everyone expects a cobra to be fast....but a GT? nope But again, im happy for you, and glad your not selling your car. get some pics when you get it

Sorry about the phone thing bro. We're completely flooded, so if you do get the answering machine, please leave a message and we'll call ya back. As for the spray, both our n/a cam specs work great with nitrous. Again, sorry for the phone issue.
