3v>4v no matter how you slice it
The only advantage is the termi already has a blower on it and a 6-speed. But id still take the 08 all day long before the termi. Bolt on blown 3v's are making 500+ rwhp all day long. Take an 01 cobra and put the same amount of boost on it with the same blower and it will not respond as well.

The reason that a 2005+ SC GT even though it is a 3V will respond better to bolt onsthan a 2001 Cobra is the fact that it has a 9.7:1 compression ratio as opposed to a 9.85:1 for the Cobra. Not to mention in the 03 the Cobra got better flowing heads which allowed for more response to mods and in 05 the GT got new better flowing heads as well. Oh and you have 03/04 Cobra's with basic boltons, not even a pulley swap, making around 450 rwhp. Heck, porting the eaton will get a Cobra into the mid 500rwhp.We won't even talk about getting rid of the (h)eaton does for an 03/04 Cobra. Twin screw 4V>Twin screw 3V.

Who cares about flow of a 3v -vs- a 4v when you're talking high numbers, If the bottom end goes it doesn't matter, 03/04 are the best hands down. And I LOVE the s197.

You can get damn close to that. Theres a guy on modular fords putting down about 1000rwhp on a stock long block, except for arp head studs. He was close to the 1000 with the stock head bolts. I heard he is having trouble because the heads are lifting at around 30psi. Heres a clip of his car running the 1/4, its crazy fast. Hellion powered...

The cobra is a much better platform for modding.
