I JUST BOUGHT AN 03 COBRA AND IT HAS THE DIABLOSPORT PREDATOR INSTALLED......I ACCIDENTALLY INSTALLED IT BACK TO THE FACTORY TUNE.......I THEN PUT THE PERFORMANCE TUNE ON IT FOR THE SMALLEY PULLEY TUNE........I AM WONDERING WHAT I WOULD SET THE PARAMETERS AT LIKE SPARK ADVANCE TO GET MAXIMUM HP OUT OF IT, BECAUSE RIGHT NOW ALL OF THAT STUFF IS SET FOR STOCK.......UPGRADES INCLUDE SMALLER UPPER AND LOWER SUPERCHARGER PULLEYS, X PIPE NO CATS.......WHAT DO I SET THE TIMING AT 2-4K AND 4-7K?????........I CHANGED THE REVS PER MILE TO MATCH THE BIGGER TIRES, AND TOOK OFF THE 02 SENSOR SO NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, I DONT WANT TO GET IT DYNOED AND TUNED BECAUSE DONT HAVE THE $ RIGHT NOW.....IF ANYONE COULD HELP THAT WOULD BE GREAT, DONT WANT TO MESS WITH TIMING WITHOUT SOME PROFESSIONAL HELP

put the custom tune that was originally on it back, and take it to the dyno, DO NOT mess with any of those things if you need to ask, thats a good way to blow **** up. its always a good idea to take any new boosted car to the dyno to make sure its safe

Good advise ^^^^

MAD SVT

the package pulley tune that comes on the diablosport is good enough until you get to a dyno... it may be running a little lean(mine was), DONT MESS WITH THE TIMING UNLESS YOURE ON A DYNO.

thanks for all your replies, does anyone know the exact cost of a dyno and tune?

03svtcobra12

depends on your local tuner, prices can vary greatly

agreed go to a reputable tuner so your not building a new engine or blower

MAD SVT

my guy charges 125hr.... about 1 1/2hrs probably

awesome thanks, its hard to find a good place to take your car for dyno.......just bought a lfp dual pass heat exchanger, anyone hear good things about it? also, whats the best throttle body to get for the 03 cobra? i heard the bbk 65mm is pretty good

MAD SVT

hey man i thought you were broke!!! haha just playing.

I have the LFP also, ive had no problems with it.

I have the Accufab single blade and LOVE IT, it allows more air than the BBK.. AND.. if you wanted to upgrade your blower one day, you already have the single blade throttle body.
I bet you could feel the difference between the stock and an accufab throttle body... you will have to get it re-tuned, so it might be a good idea if you get the throttle body first and then get it dyno-tuned.
