Even on a cobra? Would I really benefit from porting them. I thought the cobra heads and intake were pretty good. Let me know.

You should put 2 or 3 turbonators on it J/K

Definitely gears...3.73 or 4.10's, then a larger TB and MAF. The cobra is larger than stock GT, so those aren't a must, but they'd allow more airflow. Also, an electric fan and U/D pullies would free up some HP.

I would also recommend gears as one of your next upgrades. Personally, I would go with atleast 3.73's.
