So i am new here and loking for some advice, i have a 97 cobra, it has intake exhaust gears and has been tuned,so i am wondering what mod to do next, i thought either a throttle body or electric water pump, both claim about 10-15 hp or is there something else out there i can do, the snake needs a lil more hp thanks for any advice you may have

how about suspension and brakes???

next as far as performance id say tb/pleunum if you really want... no for electric waterpump...

trust me, if you put on a TB AND a pluenum you wouldnt get 15hp

How much exhaust you talking here? Does it have LT's back? Maybe look into subframe connectors and/or a short throw shifter

Don't do TB/Plenum on a 96-98 Cobra Wont net you anything. To my knowledge there is no aftermarket plenum for the car anyway as the one it has is killer.
As far as power goes only UD pulleys or long tubes will add any more power without adding FI.

And get the sub frame connectors, trust me on this. On my 96 Cobra it made the biggest single difference out of any other mod. Car is MUCH nicer with a set of FLSFCs

and if money isnt a problem, LT headers.
