i have a 96 cobra bored .30 over with forged flat tops making my cars comp ratio around 10.25:1 along with twin 65mm tb, c&l cai, frpp shorty headers, o/r x pipe, tuned ecu, and other odds and ends... would it be safe, or better yet SMART to put a 100 shot NOS dry shot into my car?
+1 on high compression and nitrous. and if you have forged internals you even have the potential to run more than a 100 shot if you want. just make sure your fuel system can keep up. a svt focus fuel pump or kenne bell boost a pump wouldn;t be a bad investment.

Next summer looking to go with:
Bilstien shocks + struts, Lowering springs (brand still TBD (any suggestions?)), MM CC plates, front + rear sway bars, subframes, and upper and lower control arms.
Time to make the pony ride some rails
this all helps me alot guys, and with the fuel system could i get a 255 lph walbro or is that too much fuel? and with the focus svt pump is that in addition to my factory pump or as a full replacement? what brand of nitrous system, venom, NOS, nx express, or edelbrock?
iv been looking into nitrous too and i like the zex kit on americanmuscle plus good install vid

the svt focus pump is a direct replacement. walbros are designed for a return style system and will not work (for long) in a 99-04 gt. the 99-04 fuel system is returnless. the svt focus pumps are pretty cheap too (i had mine for $150 shipped) and are very reliable. and it wont be too much fuel, the fuel injectors determine how much fuel enters the engine, the high flowing pump will just ensure that there is more than adequate pressure behind the fuel injectors.
and american muscle is a very, very reliable website to order from.

WAIT scratch that. i just re-read your original post and you stated that you have a 96 cobra so the walbro will work fine!!!!!!!!!! (you have a return style system).
i always forget that this forum includes the earlier 4.6s too, not just the 99-04s.

Well it sounds like you have a great engine for supercharging as well, if you've rebuilt the lower with forged pistons I'd scour ebay for a deal on a blower, you could easily get 500 hp out of that engine now, it would be like having NOS all the time.
