[QUOTE="customperforman, post: 4485058, member: 26559"] Guys, how are things? rhetorical question. anyway, i read the thread on the comments people make after riding in Cobras and thats what im after. seriously, i am wanting a seriously fast street car. it will be my daily driver and wont be on the track but three or four times a year. its just too hard to get any money out of my 99 GT/ Vortech combo to upgrade to a cobra and the insurance isn't worth it. so, i was thinking of options keeping my car. why do i want to change: on the street, i dont get the pull from my centri blower and gears that i want. i want a low-midrange pull that only torque can provide. a legit 500 hp at the wheels. option 1: 2.1 Kenne Bell blower with LTs and 4.10 gears (i currently have the 4.10s and may step down to 3.55s or so) option 2: hellions single turbo kit. will this pull like i want it to? would the 4.10s work well for around town driving? i know the higher gears allow the turbos to spool up but maybe this would help 1 and 2 gear traction? option 3: look on ebay or somewhere for a wrecked 03-04 Cobra to swap as much as possible over. i built a pretty mean 03 with a ported eaton, 2.88 pulley, LTs and CAI that i loved. on either of the other options, i would build a forged bottom end, but if i swapped for the cobra engine, i would get a blower and built engine for about the same as the other options plus forging my 2v engine. and the added bonus of 4v heads. sorry for the long post, but i am obsessing.
