With the basic intake, exhaust, pulley, port, tune, etc, getting you to 500 or so horsepower, you can definitely run an 11.5, and I'm sure lower depending on the driver, track, etc. The point is, with a ported and pullied S/C and just bolt ons, I think you should definitely be able to get low 11s before you have to spend thousands to change the S/C or go turbo or something.


By 2.2 KB he means the 2.2L Kenne Bell supercharger. Then again, they don't even make those anymore.

A 2.76 would be good. I have a 2.8, not much difference between the two, well, 4 hundreths of an inch to be exact. [8D] I think a lot of people around here really like the Billetflow pulleys. I'm not sure what store carries them off the top of my head, but if you look around online at some different Mustang stores you should find them. Actually, it looks like you can order it directly from them.

you should read the tech articles about pullies and porting, very interesting ramifications of messing with the m112, esp coupled with IRS... just curious what times have you gotten out your cobra?

Me? I haven't run mine yet. Plus, I will tell you right now that I'll need a bit of practice to launch this thing. Nice thing is that the rear end should take just about any launch I can give it.

I have not run it yet, im concerned with the wheel hop thats one main reason i have not taken it to the track. The person who i bought it from said he ran it with low 12's but he had on drags.
With the pulley situation, should i get a lower and upper or just upper for now. Id like to just do everything when i can you know?

also id love to lift the front end off the ground, how far away am i from that?

Wheel hop. As SOON as you feel it, get out of the gas!

You need drag radials on this car. A set of BFG's or Nitto's will help eliminate the wheel hop in stock or near stock form.

When I had the eaton on my car I purchased my pulley, belt, idler pulley and custom tune from RWTD (runninwiththedevil). Iwas very happy with their service and the tune was spot on.I don't think you will be diappointed with them. Good luck, Lewis.

Anyone know a good place in Michigan to have a tune?

If you want to see 11's i reccomend going to stage 3-4 ported blower, with a 4# 2.93 pulley combo, you will need bigger injectors, mafia, bap, intake exhaust mid- pipe back, and drag radials at least to have hopes of 11's, unless you are a great driver and want to powershift your way to a burned out clutch in a hurry. I was able to run in the 11's with 1.8-2.0 60's and just speed shifting. with the above mentioned combo i made 522rwhp and 498rwtq.

You should try slicks next time. I'd love to run some slicks sometime with my rear end and see how hard I can launch it.
