The cobra is stock with the exception of a pro 5.0 short throw shifter, K&N filter, and flowmaster mufflers (not sure which ones they came w/ the car when I bought it). I am wondering what else I can do to get more power out of the car. I am hoping to get 300rwhp. I do not want to use nitrous but a s/c may be in store for the future. Anyone have suggestions?

Long tube headers, X or H pipe, larger cam, UDP's, smog pump delete kit (if you don't have to worry about emissions.) to name a few.

Getting HP out of an engine is easy, money is the tough thing to get.

throw in some shorty headers too with a gear change.. your shiit will be HAULIN

[v6stang3215]

unfortunately I can't get an o/r x or h pipe because of emissions. What is the difference between a catted x and a catted h pipe?

That car already has decent shorty headers, if emissions aren't a concern, LT's are the way to go.

Heads, cam, intake, exhaust with hi-flo cats and pass emmisions. It is easy if you keep it all as a combonation that works well. Trick flow has a great combo as well as Holley system max. Get it tuned when installed.

Then add a stroker!!!

I am interested in doing a h/c/i swap but I'm not sure about which parts to get.I have heard the edelbrock heads and intake are good but I do not kno which cam to get. Does anyone have any ideas for some setups I could go with?

Like I said, Trick Flow has a great combo, heads, cam and intake. Stage 2 cam is my choice... but build it as a combo and not just pieces that may or may not work. I have a 331 stroker with Afr 185's, comp extreme energy 274 cam. It got me there and then some.

[v6stang3215]

thanks for the help guys I'm lookin at the trick flow and edelbrock stuff. I'll let ya know how it goes. If anyone has anymore suggestions please feel free to let me know.

[v6stang3215]

I am now lookin into buyin a supercharger instead of doing the h/c/i swap. Does anyone have any suggestions on which supercharger is the best? Which do you think is better the h/c/i or the supercharger? Also can I run a supercharger on a stock engine or will I need to buy other components?
