[QUOTE="stangfreak, post: 16702631, member: 10655"] Im out of the debate. We have been proving this for the past 18 years and I am literally not in the mood to explain this anymore. Iv driven and hung out with the best cobra drivers in this community. The ones who put the work and research into what works for these cars. Listen to the guys who bought a 2.9L whipple and a 3.0L whipple and are running 15lbs of boost on 91 octane. Thats almost as comical as the guys running a 2.76 upper and a 6lb lower on a eaton. I just gave my opinion. Nothing else. Get the big blower and run low boost. You might be happy with it. It may feel powerful down low and you may make huge numbers. But if you want to make 540 rwtq with a twinscrew, which to me is a joke, yea go run 91 octane and 15lbs. Talk and learn to the guys racing these cars that are breaking the 03 cobra 6 speed record. These big blowers will only start to outshine each other when they are being pushed. Not at low boost. Iv talked to them a million times. even when the gen 4 came out, I was talking to nostradamus racing, he is in the KNOW with whipple. He even told me, dont buy it unless you are going to run over what your 2.9 whipple is at. None of these guys are running 15lbs or 18lbs. Boost is not your friend. These guys with big blowers would love to get away with running lower boost and go fast. But they cant! lol It was also stated, "I doubt that a eaton cobra will break the tires loose like a twinscrew even at 15lbs" . lol.
