Default What should my cobra be making?

I have added a 2.81 pulley, JLT cai, SLP o/r X pipe and SLP LM1 catback. Car was tuned with the diablo predator. Im just curious as to what rwhp neighborhood i should be in? I havent had the chance to get it to a dyno yet.

bout 190whp....

seriously tho

every dyno reads differently and every car acts slightly differently to the same mods, and i really hate questions like this because its like bench racing... more like bench dynoing.. which is even worse, just get it done and post the numbers...

So your driving around with a smaller pulley without a custom dyno tune? Are you crazy?

+1 GET IT TUNED NOW BEFORE YOU BLOW UP YOUR CAR!


you should be making 440-460rwhp with a proper tune.

WHat?? That can't be right; I make 440 with a stock long block a 3.12 pulley making 10lbs after the I/C on a 2v.

If that's all he'd make why would people care to have a 4v over a 2v?

... this is the wrong place to say this... but most cobras dont make nearly as much power as their owners say they do

I've seen dyno sheets of terminators with with just a cold air intake & catback make 420rwhp 398rwtq. So you got to be making more.
