I love my Cobra. The Machs are cool too, but there's something about a Cobra that turns heads. +1 for SVT.

mine did dyno 277rwhp stock

i forgot to add i have a diabloe tuner chip, bbk 65mm throttle body, and ported upper intake manifold

was urs tuned?

i am having trouble uploading this damn dyno sheet, on my friends comp we used for the fake dyno it was easy




Mine has not been tuned. I'm waiting for a new catted midpipe and gears first. I've seen cars with all your mods and longtubes barely break 310....

Terminators with intake, tune and midpipe will see approx a 50rwhp increase... (from 370ish to 420ish)... well most will atleast...

but as far as this 01' Cobra goes... still from your mods you won't pick up 40rwhp, the only reason the Terminators do is because of that little blower that sits on top of our motors.. kinda aplifies things... That manifold, throttle body, that's not doing much for you. Isn't your stock throttle body 65mm? Your Diablo chip, is that a dyno tune or a canned tune? I would say with your mods you're probably at around 300rwhp + or - a few...

The reason why dyno guys do that sometimes is because they make themselves look better on the tuning side, having you come to them for more things, and refer people to him because of his great tuning abilities.

It's not that I don't think it's possible, I KNOW it isn't possible. How many people do you need to hear it from?

what your saying is your car without exhaust or a tune is putting out 292 rwp add another 10-15 for an exhaust and an another 15 for an tune and your at about 320 and i have a ported intake. so why is that so hard tounderstand?

Alright, NOOB. This is how it works....

A midpipe will get you 5 to 8, a K&Nmaybe 3 to 5 and a tune might get 8 to 10. You're saying you have 319 BEFORE pullies? And I've got news for you, those pipes didn't do dick for you because all the exhaust restriction is in the manifolds and the midpipe.

My car baselined at 274 under perfect conditions.Another 18 between a good CAI and pullies is very realistic on a 4V. Two different types of gains, too. Reduction of parasitic losses and increased airflow. You're using ricer math, bro.....

My goal here was not to break you down. The goal was to help you get your **** straight so you don't get flamed by others who know how this stuff works. You obviously don't know what you're talking about, and that's okay; we all learn eventually.But you need to cut it out because we know what we're talking about around here....

Quit arguing with me and eithergo find a tuner that won't dick with you or at the very least educate yourself....

Well, just today I put down 465 at the wheels with my 01 GT with only a short shifter and K&N. The gears were even out of it. Just look!



I'm not saying you're lying.....but we have yet to see the sheet.....never the less, if you do have the sheet, just get it dyno'd by a 2nd REPUTIBLE shop and see if they match.
