just thought i'd say hi...i just traded my 98 convert gt on a 2001 cobra triple black convert already bought bbk pullies for it and has a bbk cold air on it and has 45000 miles on it. i'm thinking of buying aftermarket engine programmer any suggestions???
Ditch the pullies. They arent worth the engine failure they have caused. I would hold off on a tuner right now. I would do gears, mainly 4.10 gears if you are going with a blower, or get 4.30 gears if you plan to stay naturally aspirated. New shifter and SFC's and suspension to beef up that IRS you have. Then full exhaust(LT's, midpipe and mufflers) then the tuner.
pullies bad idea on 01 cobra??? what do the aftermarket pullies do to the motor on a 01 cobra. wheel hop with traction control off is horrible. i hear stiffer suspention in rear makes this go away gears first????then exhaust....??
The balancers on our cars arent the greatest and UDP make it worse and tear up the oil pump gears. Once that is gone, the engine cant lubricate itself. Here is a good thread from top engine builders and racers who do know and have seen catostrophic failures. http://www.corral.net/forums/showthread.php?t=811587
congrats on your purchase... I just did the same thing about 3 weeks ago (except I traded my Nissan Titan for mine) Got any pics?
