Few Power Questions

[zeusha]

Ok guys, just put the Steggy Ported Stage IV or V not don't remember had it sitting a while but this is as far as i'm taking this car with power adders. Just wondering on what I would need to WOT this thing with no fear. Other than the expensive obvious like a full RT fuel system. I mean like is my mass air Ok? Stock pumps or BAP needed? My mods so far are only as follows:

K&N FT Pack Cold air, Ported blower, 3.0 Pulley Billet flow and Roush Exhaust.

Please keep in mind this is not a track car however not to say I don't have fun. The car has still yet to be tuned watsoever is still stock tune i'm working on a tuner now waiting for 1 to pop-up. Any advice is appreciated. I was beat by my buddies 12 Camaro few weeks back and is no way that should be happening lol. Something is obviously wrong.

Around low 13's # boost probably. Could be close to pegging the MAF. You need to datalog to tell for sure. As for the rest, fuel and such should be ok. If you are concerned enough then monitor/datalog.

Probally need like a Mafia adapter for the MAF you think?

That would work too. Ask your tuner because some are stuck in their ways or prefer.. whatever. The truth is, it shouldn't matter.

Oh, and read your plugs.

Datalog is your friend! Check your fpdc, I was maxed with upper pulley only making 455rwhp.

What does it look like under the hood? Do you have a full set of idlers, snub? Differential cover? Subframes? Traction? 170* thermostat. These are some basic mods you might want to consider before you thrash the Cobra.

Thanks for the calls on that. I dont have any idlers, im gonna start the mod train here I guess. Just trying to take care of the important first ya know.

Ill take some under the hood pics tomorrow. Looks bland n boring but some red andonized stuff will get that looking better

I read through your opening thread and see you have the stock tune, and you mention being beat by the '12 Camaro a few weeks ago. So I'm assuming you didn't have the ported blower installed at that time. You didn't race him with the 3.0 pulley and a stock tune, did you? I surely hope not. At least not before checking your A/F.

Very nice looking Cobra you have there, by the way. The Roush side exhaust gives it a nice, different look.

Unfortunately Bob, I did race him with the blower installed on the Stock tune. Wont do it again amazed it lived with what I know now actually. Im 1 of 4 in my crew with a 99-04 Cobra just wanted to stand apart a lil. I think it all comes together well. Thanks for the good comment brother.
