Last year Made a post about my fathers 03 cobra and the 2.9 whipple build. Finally after a few months of finishing up some odds and ends we got to take it back to finalize its tune.

Ill have some pics up later as I'm at work currently but, it made 602rwhp and 518tq. The car was breaking traction on the dyno.

:beer:

Yeah, you are deep into the 600s with a de-tuned 2.9 and no traction.

This, hopefully in a few weeks ill be putting In a new clutch and input shaft as well as some sticky tires. I did a built sra swap with 4:11's, this car moves very nicely

Congratulations on your dad's Cobra breaking into the 600s! I had to laugh when I read that its breaking traction on the dyno. :burnout: :rockon:

mine did spin on the dyno back in May and the 1st run didn't register. I was a bit worried it might be too warm on the 2nd pull as they immediately pulled it again...but still laid down 714/680 with a little 2.3 "tourqeless" whipple :D

put that thing on some corn and pulley for some real boost/timing!

Post up the entire set up, what fuel was used, how much boost??
-2.9 non crusher
-60# semiens (I think that's the brand) injectors
- twin gt supercar pumps on a stock hat
-dual pdfm
-factory manifolds and cats until the car goes into smog
-built sra, 31 (if I Remeber correctly) axles, 4.11 gears
-eibach pro launch springs/bilstiens on all four corners
-91 octane pump gas
-stock pulley on the whipple. I'm at work so I can't pull up the specs
