Yeah thats why im asking now... Id like to try to do as much as i can so i can learn.. Otherwise if i cant get anyhelp ill just take it to the shop and let them do all the work but id prefer not to cause it takes all the fun out... So any information ??
yea anything under 15 is pretty safe i believe however anything over 15 and your talking atleast 93 octane 60 lbs injectors kb bap but if you dont want to to put all that cash into it and still have kb or whippled cobra just get the setup have it at 13- 15 psiwhcich ever you prefer some fat timing and a good tune and you should be good to go for some pretty serious numbers
Well i was reading recently on some stuff and people have said they kept the regualr supercharger it comes with but changed out a few things and it picked up in hp and was actualy better than getting the kb.. Im just trying to figure out, i can prolly guarantee when i buy it it will already be fixed up cause the one i was lookin at had 515, another had 480.. So im not sure, everyone is telling me to change the gear ratio but im not gonna be taking it to the track much, its gonna be my daily car so i really dont wanna mod it up too high
Gears arent really necessary on cobras. KB or whipple are both nice upgrades. You can run up to 15lbs on the stock fuel system. The KB makes 72hp over the stock supercharger at 13lbs of boost. If you have the money its the way to go. If you stick with the stock supercharger get it ported, upper and lower pulley, exhaust, intake system. Just some of the basics. Anything over 15lbs you will need injectors and BAP. The BAP comes with the KB kit though. Hope this helps.
punched if i may chime in on the two cobra's your looking at in my personal opinion i wouldnt even go close to buying a cobra unless of three things it is stock few minor mods ( intake exhaust ) or you know the person that had it before so you know how long those mods were on the for has it been it to the track at all cause for all you know those two cobras use to get pounded on but your the one buying im just giving my 2 cents
well i was gonna get a kb and do the exhaust and intake and that would be done, well except for a new set of tires for when i burn mine out since ill have the money to get them.... So i will prolly jus go with the kb! i love the whine lol
