Is there any added value, in adding a Ford Racing Whipple over a Kenne Bell, Ported Eaton, etc etc?
This question comes from me seeing alot of people looking for 03/04 Cobra's that are as close to stock as possible. And seeing people so excited or impressed when they find dead stock older stangs. BUT it seems if a newer or older mustang has been modified with "Ford Performance Brand" parts, no matter a paxton supercharger in the 60's or some type of parts in the 90's, it gets more of that "oooooh its a factory part, or stock type part/car" look and comments.
So, down the road, if you or someone else were looking at two identical 03/04 Cobras except one had a "Ford Performance" Whipple and the other had a Kenne Bell (for example) would you feel ANY differently between the two? Does the "Ford" label on the Whipple give it any "Ford mystique"?
I hope this post is understandable...its hard to ask about a perceived feeling about a car.
They do look GOOD though.
