Default Up grading supercharger

I own a 03 Cobra convertible. I am considering a blower upgrade. Is the Wipple upgrade kit worth the money. I currently have a 3.10 pulley on the stock blower, magniflow x pipe and mufflers, k+n cold air kit. I love my current performance but will the wipple increase my smile?

These guys can help you out..

Stiegemeier Supercharger Porting, Rebuild, and Repair

An Accufab throttle body, Stage IV Stiegemeier blower with a 2.8 pulley will get you some serious HP gains.

After that, some fuel system upgrades, aftermarket shifter, clutch upgrade, input shaft upgrade and maybe a gear change would be nice..

A whipple is an excellent upgrade but consider a Kennebell 2.8 blowzilla kit. If your going with an aftermarket blower, consider cooling upgrades such as a heat exchanger, synthetic fluids and a cooling mod for the heads. If your going to run plenty of boost, remember the piston rings are a weak point and tend to get damaged from the additional heat.

Did I mention nitrous?

If you can't afford a Whipple, there are some used ones out there, then i would go with the steggy stage 4 or 5 port. you'll most likely need to upgrade to a SCT MAF or a Diablo MAFIA, 60lb injectors, a BAP or Ford GT or SVT focus pumps. The whipple will put a bigger smile on your face than the steggy port but the steggy port will still get you a little over 500rwhp.
I'm going to get the port done to mine while i'm saving up for a new short block and a whipple 3.4.
Also the tune is key if you want your motor to live long. Also no high boost runs in 5th gear of course.
Either way, you'll be happy.
You could always get a smaller up and bigger lower to increase your boost and a new tune for it. I wouldn't really go over 15psi on the stock eaton though, to much heat.
