I just picked up a 96 Cobra with a Vortech. I did have a 97 Cobra for 12 years so I do know a bit about these cars. The 2 things I see that need immediate attention are, there is no intercooler/aftercooler, and there is no aftermarket gauges to monitor the motor. My thoughts are to get a progressive Meth Injection to cool the incoming air. And at very least one Aeroforce gauge to watch the boost and A/F Ratio.

At this time I'm not trying to make more HP, I just want a safe cruiser that may make it to the track someday. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks guys

being in FL Im pretty sure you should have access to 93 octane fuel pretty much anywhere you go.

A meth kit would work but to me its one more potential failure point that would have catastrophic results if it failed and the car was tuned for Meth. Personally Id look at adding an air/air intercooler and running the piping.

The aeroforce would work great for watching boost and AF (so long as you arent trying to watch it in lambda).
