First off, my Cobra is a 2003 Black convertible with parchment interior and roof. #2681 of 5082 built 03/03/03 (perfect build date for an '03 Cobra) So far CAI is the only mod, but I was down in Califronia in January and brought back some souveniers. Magnaflow x-pipe and cat-back, 2.93 pulley, and a Predator. I understand MPH is more a function of horsepower, and 107 is the fastest I've run here in Calgary ele. 3400' (stock with CAI).
I know the rule of thumb for a n/a car is -4% hp per 1000' of elevation, but before I ran at the track I really thought that the supercharger would compensate for that.
Question 1. Does 8PSI of boost (manifold pressure) at sea level equal 8PSI of boost (manifold pressure) at 3400'?
Question 2. Given the new mods above, what should I run next time at the track? (best with CAI 13.3 @ 107 / 2.3 60')
Thanks,
Colin
ps I wanted to post a couple pics of the car but don't know how - forum rules say 'may not' ?!?
