Are those numbers from a Mustang dyno? If not, they are very low. Are you still running the stock cat-back. If so, replace it. It is choking around 20 HP. last, but not least, get a tune and some good plugs.

Nothing more than H&R Sport Springs!! :thumbsup:

I like them alot though the ride is a bit more harsh than stock. Worth the handling and looks in my opinion though!

ok, well how many miles do you have? I picked up about 7rwhp just from 3000 miles to 5000 miles. I'm sure you would pick up more than that just from 1000 to 3000. Does that C&L use a K&N type filter? Do you still have stock exhaust?

Seeing how low you dynoed stock, I would assume you dynoed with like 1000 miles, or clogged cats. Try an x-pipe for that.

Also, I have heard of one guys car that always dynoed real low, and he did a compression check and found out something was wrong with his engine. Better to find out now before your mods go too far and you lose the warranty.

yeah it is low if it was on a dynojet. For a mustang dyno it is ok. Find out what dyno it was. Here's some of my numbers:

CAI and predator flash= 385rwhp/398rwtq

2.75RR, CAI, tune-TWO DIFFERENT DYNO'S and TWO DIFF. DAYS=425rwhp/458rwtq. Other day=415rwhp/440rwtq

All Stock Exhaust like yours. No base/stock dyno though:(

On my dyno runs the Cat-Back and Filter made quite a difference in Hp numbers at the high end. With that torque number your exhaust is killing the past 4.5K rpm HP for sure.

Check out the gain the K&N and Cat-Back gave me up top. You need exhaust.

Your leaving an easy 30 to 40 horse off your car
with the stock C/B. IMO C/B should be the
first mod on any Cobra.
