i need some help
i am looking at really adding some serious HP to my 04 cobra. i cant make up my mind between either putting a KB on it or the HP twin turbo kit. Any suggestions??? Has anyone out there done any of these mods??? Also i want it to still be a daily driver. Thanks for the help.

RE: i need some help
I would do the KB or whipple. It is cheaper and you don't have to wait for the turbo's to spool up. I have the KB 2.2 at 17psi for close to 600whp and love it. It is not my daily driver, but it could be.

This should help! It was a nice spreadsheet, but did not post correctly. I can email it to you if you give me your email.

RE: i need some help
the kb will be alot cheaper in the long run, but the turbos will yeild more power and more effieciency. i am doing a hellion turbo swap right now. i had some machining work done and am doing a way extreme fuel system but total not including the solid axle for the rear is hovering at right around $20,000.
the hellion t-76 turbo kit alone is about 7k. and you still need all the miscilaneous stuff, inake mani, fuel upgrades, throttle cables, alternator and brackets the list goes on.
