Vmp upgrade

[svtcobraNate]

Well I ended up purchasing a 03 sonic blue cobra coupe with 8047 miles last month.
I noticed some supercharger noise from the eaton. Found out the supercharger wasnt the original charger on the car. I debated on rebuilding or just upgrading.
I decided to just spend the money and go bmp tvs 2.3 with 2.8 upper, vmp bap, 60# siemens, vmp 3000, sct x4 and a ballenger wideband with ntk.
Just waiting on snow to melt to wnjoy the car some.
Here are some before and after pictures. I think it looks way better than polished.

That is my exact plan for mine, recently purchased the NGK AFX and plan on mounting it in the air vent for a nice stock look to the car.

How do you know it's not the original blower. Very curious. Didn't know we could distinguish wether or not it was born with the car.

Very nice car. I love it! Just doing some personal touches to it. Basically putting the fogs back to stock with led, i might go back to 03 tailights.

Beautiful car! But 8k mile car with broken supercharger? I sure hope Saddle sent some money back your way to help pay for the vmp

I'm guessing that isn't the original Eaton because it's been polished, and he probably had it ported and polished by Stiegemeier Porting Services, who used/uses an exchange program.

Congratulations on buying that stunning Sonic Blue Cobra. Immaculate and very nicely modded. The engine bay has just enough bling to make it catch your attention in a good way. Have fun driving it this summer.

Thanks. And nope and im done with drew (saddle) there was a list of things wrong with the car and im still finding more.
So far
Two blown shock absorbers
Broken piaa light lense
Halogen license plate lights not led as stated
Eaton blower bearing failure confirmed by 3 shops
170* tstat is magically a oem tstat
Comes down to my fault really I didnt go there in person to see the car before purchasing. I took his word for everything.
Im just glad the car overall is solid in in good shape with a true 8047 miles.
Mechanical stuff I can fix.
Im sure this will stur up drama but the fact i keep finding more s**t that isnt there is pissing me off.
I have yet to even drive the car so who know what else i will find wrong.
