I’m keeping them for if and when I have to pull the engine. Then they’ll definitely go on when it goes back in. Still have to get a tubular k member as well, along with many other things the car “needs”. I just don’t have any extra money to throw at the car these days.
Here’s an 800 rwhp cobra with a flowmaster cat back. At the end they unbolt the cat back and dyno it with an open x pipe. It only gained 5 hp and 7 torques. They’re not really choking up the exhaust. Also, my buddy’s 2.9 whipple cobra went bottom 10’s at 140 with flowmasters. I’d run what you...
I like the idea of catch cans but I don’t like the looks of all the lines. I think it looks to busy under the hood. But I may eventually go that route to lessen the smell.
Been running the cheap parts store breathers, but the lip is tearing up the rubber grommets when I pull them out. Do they make screw in breathers that will fit? or do I need to remove the grommets and buy a screw in adapter for the filters?
I bought my car with a nitrous kit already installed, never sprayed it. Mine was set up to spray “dry” before the maf, which should richen it up a bit. I want to say you can spray up to a 50~75 shot in front of the maf with no tune changes. Anything higher, pull some timing.
I have kooks headers and x pipe in my basement. I know they sound awesome, just not convinced they’ve choking the exhaust too terribly at 600~700 rear wheel. At least that’s what I tell myself to avoid dealing with installing them.
Do these cars really “need” pain in the ass longtubes at 700rw?. I’ve seen your car make 700, and a few years ago a guy did LT’s before and after dyno with his stock manifolds 2.8 Kenny Bell, and it only gained like 8 hp over manifolds and off road x.
Coyote firing order is different from a modular and mufflers are at the end of the exhaust. When I bought my 15 gt it was bone stock and the exhaust was silent. I almost ordered resonator, and muffler deletes, but at the last minute I just went with the muffler delete. Glad I didn’t do both...
This. E85 and put some real timing in it. I also say enjoy the exclusivity of your car. Hellcats and Coyote cars are everywhere, and I personally prefer the looks of a terminator over both.
Do you run slicks? If not then I’d say you have no chance of hooking in first from a dig. And even with slicks you may need traction compound, and a burnout to hook.
IMO it depends on how low your car sits, and how extreme the transitions on the highway are. New shocks aren’t going to keep it from bottoming out on those transitions. My cobra did it with factory shocks and struts with only 24k miles. Be careful.
