    Dyno Day in South Sound (Tacoma)

    Depends on who shows, but my money's going to be on one of the 03 or 04 Cobras coming down. I went to a dyno day up at Carb Connection and those Cobras were putting down awesome numbers. If the Mustang dyno displays lower numbers than a Dyno Jet like people are saying, I'll be happy with...

    Seattle area gear install?

    Have you talked to Turbo Tech? Or how about Blood? Both those guys are local, though I don't know about pricing. Just an idea.

    WA Emissions Questions

    You do not need taipipes, although the emissions folks will like you better if you do. The lady at the emissions place in South Hill gave me a hard time about it.

    WA Emissions Changing?

    I heard something about it on the news, but they said that current cars would be grandfathered in and it wouldn't affect them. Just another form of oppression perpetrated by the man!

    help a brotha' out...

    Out of curiousity, what's the difference between Cobra headlights and regular headlights? Do they come with the lower fog lights too?

    Kenne Bell or NOT? What to buy

    stang2b, don't forget you're going to have to notch the hood in order for the supercharger to clear. If you got an instruction manual it will show you where. As for sound, they're pretty quiet.

    What size front tire for draglite 3.5s?

    If I'm not mistaken, you can run a 175 or 185 R 15 on them. They're a Volkswagen Beetle (old one) tire.

    Kenne Bell or NOT? What to buy

    KB's are great for the street. The reason that a lot of people go with a centrifugal (Vortech, ATI, Paxton) is that they make more total horsepower, but you really have to get on it to do it. The twin screw makes instant boost, but they don't keep building boost throughout the power curve...

    It had been fun..........

    Sorry about the accident, I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say I'm glad you're OK. Also sorry to see you leaving the group, but I can understand. As for what charges, it all depends on what you were doing and what damage was done.

    GT40 crate motor

    Well, I've got a 94 Cobra with basically the same set up as him (E-Cam, headers, etc.). I put down 245 at the wheels. The GT40 crate motor is a good engine, but it's certainly no monster. IMO, there's no way he's near 11's, more like low to mid 13's. From what I've read, a GT40 motor that is...

    Car is popping/backfiring on new H/C/I

    Could be a couple things. You may have a vacuum leak somewhere that could cause it to backfire and pop. You could also have the distributor 180 out. I'd go back through and just make sure that everything was bolted up nice and tight, etc.

    '05 SALEEN PICTURES..

    I'm a little disappointed. Sure it looks OK, but if I'm going to buy a Saleen, I would expect a little more than 400hp out of the car.

    how much power?

    You'd be safe with 8-10 lbs of boost on a stock block, maybe more. I've got a stock block and I'm running 8 lbs from a Kenne Bell and haven't had any problems other than a blown head gasket, which was ready to go anyway. If you've put new heads on it, that shouldn't be a problem. You should...

    Supercharging a 5.0? Pros and cons.

    I have a Kenne Bell 1500 on my 94 Cobra. It's a daily driver and the only problem I've had is a blown head gasket. It was a pain, but the mechanic said it was just a matter of time before it went anyway. Other than that, the car is as reliable as it ever was and it's got over 98K miles on it...
