Ford Cobra ........ $350

TrickFlow street heat ........... $400 ....... ocasionally on ebay for $300

TrickFlow is best bang for the buck

Everyone says stay away from POS Typhoons.

for a little more than $300 you can find an extrude honed cobra upper and lower that will support an ez 500 hp and outflow everything on the market..

the extrude honing on both pieces costs about $400 alone...so it'll be a deal.

Have you checked your local machine shop to see how much they would charge to port the upper and lower? Might be a little cheaper and better for your application

i have a typhoon . if you clean up the castings its a good intake. will flow better than a cobra out the box. but if "everyone" says something we better listen.
