So I ran my 96 Cobra on the dyno today, ran 274 hp, 280 ft/lb tq! I can't believe it was so low, another guy in my club ran a stock 97 Cobra with exhaust only and ran 294 hp / 300 ft/lb tq. I'm trying to figure out what was wrong, it had a really flat spot at about 4k-5k, then ramped up again. I was so pissed I just left without getting my printout but here's my mods to see if anyone has a clue.
SuperChips 1725 Tuner
K&N conical filter w/ heat shield
BBK 62mm Throttle body
Bassani X-Pipe w/ cats
Borla Cat-Back
4.30:1 gears
Steeda Radiator
Evans Water pump
Screamin Demon Coil Packs
Livewires
11" motorsport clutch
T56 Trans w/ Pro 5.0 shifter
Dynotech Alum. driveshaft
megabite jr. upper/lower control arms
Kenny Brown subframe connectors
Griggs Coilover Suspension (adj. Koni's) all around w/ CC plates
AJE tubular A-arms
Strut tower brace, Lower K-member brace
Solid rack bushings
There's only one code right now and it's not throwing the CEL, it's a rear oxygen sensor ckt fail, but I don't think that would throw it into limp mode or anything... Hrm, not sure about that actually, thought it also may have been my plugs so I pulled them and replaced today with just some new Autolites. I noticed the Autolite Platinums that were in there before were gapped at .060, so I just left the new ones at stock .040. Really no reason for a gap that big, even if the Screamin Demon coils w/ livewires may send the spark through that gap since I don't really have that many engine mods done anyways..
I just figured I'd be around 300rwhp I guess... Any input on the matter would be appreciated!
THANKS!
