475HP '03 cobra · 10-01-2005, 03:02 PM

STOCK HO 92 FOX WITH SIMPLE BOLT ONS, (exhuast, underdrives, new clutch)

AFTER I PUT IT ON I WILL HAVE 24# INJECTORS, ITS THE STANDARD 6PSI KIT

AFTER I WILL ALSO HAVE A 90MM COLD AIR INDUSTION INTAKE

it wouldn't make much power with stock heads

I would recommend also doing a head swap and using 30# injectors.

475HP '03 cobra · 10-02-2005, 06:37 PM

the guys from KB told me it would make 100 more hp to the wheels with stock injectors on a stock motor, it sounded a bit high to me and i was also wondering if a tired out 120,000 mile engine could handle the pressure

QWKSNKE · 10-02-2005, 07:00 PM

you would almost get that same power increase with head/cam/intake swap.

120k miles is not much on a 5.0. I installed my procharger at 170k miles.

with a H/C/I swap you would likely want more than the 6psi base kit. i dont think 6psi would be enough on a modded car.

I have a 9psi powerdyne kit on a mild 306 engine and it only sees 5-6 psi. The more an engine flows the less the manufacture rated psi you will see. I would advise going to the larger psi kit.

No matter what the psi is you will still see the same CFM out of the charger, and CFM is what matters not psi.

what would be the blower price vs. heads cam and intake swap prices

i will tell you i want a B-cam with AFR 165cc heads and a trickflow intake or
the blower kit i previously mentioned....

which one would cost less?and which one would you personally do?

Having the power naturally is almost always better than going forced unless you have to. Having a mild n/a package seems to be a lot easier to handle and a better route in the beginning.

Plus the chance of fubar'ing something on an n/a setup is less likely. Going lean on a blown setup won't make it last very long.

And finally, what would you expect with a blower and basically stock engine, 300whp? A blown car with only 300whp? Pretty weak.

Also, an N/A car will be less wear and tear on the motor since you woun't have a belt putting excess strain on the crank.

It's a lot easier to be proud of an average N/A powered car than a weak forced induced car.
