Very true, I am used to the Evo side where if you run E85 it takes MASSIVE amounts of fuel and huge injector then injectors are a huge problem trying to get the car to idle right or tuned on low boost. If it's not bad on the cobra I will look further into it! I am guess dual pumps, upgraded line and a fpr?

Congrats on the Cobra!! :beer: ...and nice toyz!
Well the extra demand for fuel is still there, about 30% more. Common injector upgrade is 60's with a TS blower, 80's would be enough for you're proposed mods on E85. Upgraded pumps, BAP, and lines would be the basics for the fuel system and you would need the pumps anyway with the Whipple. You could run 21-23psi instead of 16psi, and have 680-720rwhp instead of 560-580rwhp. The guys that have converted have loved it, I'm doing it on my Eaton/spray car.
Thanks!!!
Yeah for sure! Not sure 700+ whp is going to last on the stock block but it's worth looking into. Thanks again for the info! :thumbsup:
Thank you! :beer:
Hi John, welcome to SVTP! Hope you spend some quality time here. Great bunch of folks.
Nice looking Cobra. Sonic Blue is a great color. I see it's mildly modded. Any major mods planned for it? Nice EVO by the way!

Thanks Bob!
I haven't really decided on my plans for mods yet. I have been looking into a Kenne Bell or Whipple setup. Just going to take my time to decide which would be most efficient and reliable and of course do my research on supporting mods IE: Fuel, Drivetrain etc....
So far I am leaning towards a Kenne Bell but I need to get a better understanding on how a supercharger works and pro's and con's of certain setups. I need to figure out if a Mammoth would suit my needs or if there really is a such thing as overkill on superchargers or if it's nice to have the headroom for more power if I want it.
I am very familiar with turbo setups but of course I wont be leaning towards that with this car.
Just so you know, the stock pumps are good for quite a bit oh power w/ a BAP, wire upgrade, and PPRV delete.
If you want the bottom to last a long time, the lower PSI and 91 octane tunes probably won't be asking for more than a BAP stock pumpS set up can deliver.
Over 600rwhp I believe is where the duty cycle becomes a problem on BAP boosted stock pumps, not sure.
Data logging with the SCT Xcal and a lap top + a nice wide band will keep you out of trouble as you crank up boost.
As wild as that EVO must be, I think you will really enjoy the Terminator, they are really quite civilized and the down low monster torque band just makes them SOOO FUN TO DRIVE!
That's why you see so many guys putting a lot of miles on them.
It is very difficult to walk past it and drive something else, not so much compared to your EVO, but you'll see.;-)
BTW: IRS + Delrin bushings + bye bye wheel hop.:thumbsup:
