hello everyone, i have been gone for a long time now, being mr. mom and all. well the kids are in school now and i want to mod my cobra. i just test drove a GT500 and was disappointed to say the least, i am guessing these things are tuned down from the factory. here is a thread i posted in that forum. http://www.chicagosvt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=42537
so instead of spending a ton of money for a new GT500 and then having to spend more money to tune it i have decided to got the forced air route. i have a vert with sfc's, a 5.0 shifter, magnaflow X catted exhuast, pulleys, 4.30s and a sct tune which brought it up to 300 torque and hp at the wheels. i ran a 12.9 with a 1.755 60' on nittos.
so here are a few questions.
what do i need to build up in the motor so i dont blow it up? i am not looking to get a safe tune and hoping it doesnt blow. i just want to build it up and let me get as much out of the supercharger as possible.
will i have to change the gears back to a lower one or can i keep my 4.30s?
what do you think this will run me having it done at a shop?
what are some good shops to do it at? the tune and gears were done at sutton and i havent had a problem with the car at all (knock on wood)
what do i need to do to the irs so that doesnt give out on me again? i blew a half shaft trying to get a lower time in the quarter.
thanks!
