Default looking for 500 rwhp

I have an 03 cobra, with 3.10 pulley and catback exhaust
Im looking to get 500 rwhp with the stock s/c.
I have plans to get
Offroad x-pipe (no cats)
Cold air intake
2.76" pulley
and tune

i know thats probably not enough to get me to 500 what other things have shown good gains on these cars?

Don't need a bottle for 500rwhp...

Just add a port, BAP and MAF and you're good to go... Just make sure you add the cooling mods; or you won't be able to really enjoy it.

I'm a little confused & I know he have talked about this in the past...With my Mods. in my Sig., you've stated that my car is around 450-465 hp based on my time at the track...how's a BAP & MAF going to get 500 hp?

Tim, a BAP helps the stock fuel pumps flow more. MAF allows more air into the intake.
It's usually needed when you do a blower port. Over 500rwhp, I believe new injectors will be needed.

Yea I understand that...but from my research, the 110mm MAF is really not needed until 600+ hp...True??

If that's not the case, I'll be getting a JLT MAF come spring....

well i don't won t to spray the car, im not a fan of nitrous at all, and getting the blower ported poses a problem because its my only car and it'll be very hard to be carless for a week. is there any other way? i dont want to spend to much money because eventually ill go to a kb or whipple when more money is available.
