Today has been the biggest disappointment with the cobra. A few months ago I decided to try a home port job. I ported the eaton, plenum and throttle body. I added 80's, BAP with wire, MAFia, magnaflow C/B with OR/H, WMS Racing Intake, 2.8 upper, toyo proxes TQ's, aeroforce dual gauges with wideband and tuned by Amazon. My expectations were low I only expected 450/450 or so. So I get to the dyno shop strap it down and it starts. I'm honestly not sure what happened but my e-brake apparently stuck and caused my rear calliper to heat up and burst into flames. I have it on video. I think he didn't push the ebrake all the way down but who knows. Ended up not hurting anything as far as I can tell. That's the first disappointment, second my car only dyno'd 432/415 with my A/F at 11.02 and its choppy. Third disappointment my brand new aeroforce interceptor gauges with wideband only work 50% of the time so now I have to send them back. They lose all of there contrast and all I see is green. When they are working one gauge is way brighter than the other. Fourth disappointment on the way home on 360 N near grapevine TX we were in bumper to bumper traffic because of the awful construction. A guy in a POS chevy truck hit my rear bumper and scratched the hell out of it. Did he stop and give me his insurance card? NO! He decided to go offroading and went over the bar ditch onto the service road which is literally a 45 degree angle followed by a muddy ditch and two curbs. I had no way to chase him down and I got three of his license plate numbers not six. The police said there's nothing they can do. I feel as of now that I have wasted a lot of money and time all for nothing. I see a corvette in my future if things don't turn around.
