I got my AFR gauge put in (with the exception of a pod) took a quick cruise no WOT down the road. Light acceleration it was around 10:4-10:6. Will do a better test drive later when I have time.
No after or intercooler on that setup. Unless there's a water-meth somewhere on there, I seriously doubt that that setup ever made 470whp. So that might be part of the problem
No aftercooler.I don’t believe there is. Having trouble adding a picture. I’ll get one up though.
I'll bet the car is making about 380rwhp.. That's my .02
You have a long list of things to make more power. You need to first find out what the ef you have in there. You have all these receipts and a bogus dyno sheet.
You have a "
Unless you have a nice chunk of change laying around go and get a good dyno tune on whatever it is right now and be happy. Otherwise break out the wallet and get ready to throw about 5k into it.
I mean a lot of things you can check yourself other than the engine internals. Is there in fact a UPR Kmember? But the UPR caster camber plates aren't there.. What injectors are on there? that should be easy.I guess the only thing I could do is look into calling the shop and see..

The "fab up intake pipe" is a freaking joke. That's like a stock one that comes from Vortech and that thing is hacked.. Go and look for the BA-3000 MAF.. But I'm guessing that is also stock..
Sorry man.. like I said I think that you got screwed..
I guess the only thing I could do is look into calling the shop and see.. the way I look at it is I paid $7300 for a super clean sub 100k mile cobra.. I mean it’s a nice car but definitely a bummer.
He gave you some dyno sheets, but I sincerely doubt they were for the set up you bought. I could be wrong, but the gut check says he pulled a fast oneHe gave the dyno sheets, but it was from a long time ago. It was at the same amount of boost as now, but I have no clue. Things could’ve changed between now and then. I guess I don’t know what kind of power to expect on a built motor cobra with a supercharger. The one thing I do know is that it should probably be smoking a stock LS car.
Pull the easy things and check and see if they match to the build sheet.
As another member said the caster camber plates are stock. Check for any items you can to ensure they match the list.
How old is that list? The owner could have parted some of the items that may have been on the car at one time.

so you guys think since the specifics regarding the internals aren’t on there it’s fishy?
1) the build sheet doest tell you much
2) you can't trust the build sheet, since it lists stuff we can see isn't installed
3) you don't make 470whp through a centri without some kind of charge cooling, and this car has none.
Good looking cobra. Without a cooler I would aim for a conservatively tuned 380-400whp, get a set of 4.10s or 4.30s and be happy. Assuming it has a stock bottom end would be the safest thing to do and not boost past 8psi.
