Default My 03 Cobra

Hey guys I am new to this scene. I was big into Diesel trucks and built some pretty sweet rides I can say though eventhought my 7500 lb truck ran low 12's these supercharged cobra's are alot of fun totally different ride. Anyways I have aways had the bombing bug with everything I own so this is where I am at.
I installed these mods
Diablo predator tuner
2.75 pulley
tr6 plugs
magnaflow cat backs
magnaflow x-pipe off road version
billet idler pulleys
K&N intake
accufab throttle body
aftermarket inlet pipe.

So my question for you all is I want a little more power so how far can I push this stock charger. My next moves are twin gt40 pumps, 62lb injectors and stage 2 cams are these wise choices any recommendations. I have owned this car for three weeks as you can see I waste no time the car was bone stock when I bought it with 14k. I am asking the public because I have asked some of the performance shops and couldn't get alot of confident info from. Thanks for all your Help,

Kyle

I would put an upgraded heat exchanger as the next part to buy. With all the mods, you are creating alot of heat under the hood. Fluidyne, LFP, and AFCO make aftermarket heat exchangers. Someone correct me if im wrong, but I think AFCO's Pro Series is the largest on the market right now. Check it out at RPMOUTLET.COM. Don't forget about gears, but someone else should recommend the size as I'm not sure which would be the best with your mods. Unless you're gonna go with a Kenne Bell or Whipple, I'd get your Eaton ported for the extra airflow. I heard 30-40 HP gains with this. And finally, with all you've done and will do, I HIGHLY recommend you get your beast on a dyno for a custom made chip for your application. Dont wanna rebuild it do you?. Hope that helps!

You definitely need a heat exchanger and a dyno tune. I would not run the car hard until you do or you could do some major damage to the engine.
