TOPSWAP PARTS.

but yea for real seems like a good price for sure. I thought even stock these things would go for over a grand.

Funny 3800 people ask the same price for a Gen V.

Speed INC has been whoring pics/videos on FB of some Joe dudes 2011 GT500. I would guess that is the car.

That is a steal of a price for that Cobra blower though.

Flip side, How much are LS1 headers compared to "good" 3800 headers?

Do they even make "good" 3800 headers these days? I though slp and togs were done? But they were like $700 right? Good lsx headers are in the $1000-1200 range I'd say.

I wonder what it takes to get this blower on a 4.6 or if it's even possible. 2.1L is gonna move some air

ZZP is probably your best bet. You can get your hands on SLP headers on ebay, but Id rather go the ZZP route. Still never seen a set of them in person.

Ive seen cheap LSX headers that arent paceshitter for $500ish. Hell, you can get Edelbrock 5.0 shit for dirt ass cheap.

I forgot they finally came out with a set.

We put $250 eBay stainless headers on my friends 98 firebird. They fit awesome. What's this have to do with this thread? I'm lost

Well to compare apples to apples. Pacesetters headers for 3800 are $379 via ZZP and pacesetter headers for a LS1 are $349 via speed INC. Im not talking adding coating or downpipe/y-pipe/x-pipe. Just the headers.

Do ls1 pacesetters work with a stock Y? If not I think that needs to be included.

LMAO, one of you guys should mount this to a 3800!!!

I'm sure if TorkTech doesn't make an adapter yet, then they will.

Here's the adapter to put a Terminator blower onto PI heads (can be adapted to fit NPI).

Beg to differ, since I have one laying around and I am always on the GT500 forums.

 

[Mike K]

Yeah,, a quick look at eBay says this price is about average. That's surprising.

 

[greasy]

I am curious what the cost of that Tork Tech kit is because at the end of the day it is still an OEM blower. Sure it probably makes some decent power, but if you are dumping money into a blower kit I would just assume go aftermarket.

 

[Mike K]

There's nothing wrong with stock blowers. As long as you size the blower to your engine, a stock blower is just as good as anything aftermarket and in many cases, easier to retrofit.

The Eaton from the Cobra generates tons of heat and has limited power capabilities. The cost of the kit is a valid question based on those factors alone. Why by a stock blower with limited capabilities when you can drop a little extra coin and grow within a setup of an aftermarket kit, makes sense to me. Retrofitting is a non-issue with the Mustang since the almost all aftermarket kits are designed to work in stock locations.

I have only read about one gt500 blower retrofit onto a cobra, from the looks of it. it wasnt worth it. Whipple for me next summer

On that application, perhaps but for other applications, it's more blower than would ever be needed. As I noted, if you pick the proper size blower for your engine, a stock setup will perform just as well as anything else.

The same reason Mustang headers and Civic headers are probably the cheapest... and g8 headers (dont even get me started on european cars) are the most expensive... 1,500,000+ cars on the road compared to 200,000.

Yes the Heaton blower on a 2v cost vs performance is a valid question. The Tork tech kit is $1950 shipped and the blower can be had for about $400 on ebay, and they put down enough boost to be a worthwhile option but you can pick up a Vortech supercharger for about the same money without producing anywhere near as much heat.
