the other thing i dont get is how a 1999 cobra is putting down 440rwhp on 8spi, my only guess would be a intercooler. since it doesnt show any other motor work done. maybe im dumb or maybe the vortech just puts down more power then a eaton?

most likly yes, PSI doesnt make the HP, the AIR does and the Vortech is probably moving more air, definately more efficient with cooler IAT's, i can see that its more effecient at 8psi, probably moves more CFM and robs the motor of less hp.

my KB was making 40 more hp @ 1 psi more than the stock eaton based on efficiency and cooler IAT's

well that makes complete sense!

so if i were to slap a KB or some other type of blower in a 03-04 cobra it would probably yeild more HP then the eaton due to efficiency and cooler IAT (whatever that is ha)

im looking around for deals on either 01 cobras or 03-04 cobras! also looking at decent GT's (saw a KB'd 02 gt putting down 410hp at 10psi!)
