I have been a long time lurker with only a few posts. However my Redfire '03 only has 48000 miles on her and she is about to get a VMP 2.3L TVS. I got the 2.8 pulley with a stock bottom end, ordered from Rick over at VMP today. I thought last year was the year of the whipple for me, but I decided to wait and not spend the money. Once I decided to never sell the cobra and turn it show, I started my search again.
I have a few questions. My intention is to have this more of a show car, so over time a lot of upgrades under the hood are coming. To that end, my original idea was to just show polish my snout on the M112 eaton and have it ported. I decided against that because I wanted more HP than the port would do.
Has anyone polished the snout on these? If so, what process was there to it? Obviously I don't want to void the warranty by pulling the snout myself, but I do want it polished. If you did it yourself or have knowledge of how it was done, I would like to know. In particular, how did you strip the paint... Chemically or mechanically?
I have a lot of time to get all of it done. The engine upgrades are going first, then once I don't have to lay over the fenders, she is getting totally repainted with the exception of pulling the engine. All molding and windows removed, etc...
I will keep a photo diary and look for a lot more info as I proceed from everyone here.

Awesome!
In case no one has said it yet welcome to Team VMP!!
If you have any questions please let us know.
That makes two of us. Mine arrived as well along with the 80lbs injectors. Sent all my black powder coated metal under the hood off to be recolored to red to match my redfire. I am torn whether to leave the blower black or get it to match. The valve covers will also be powder coated too. Decisions, decisions.
Congrats on getting your blower as well!

Another fellow Canuck rocking a TVS.... I think the only thing better than a white vert with a tvs is a comp orange vert with a tvs ..... Congrats
Thanks guys. Preordered the VMP GT500 TB today. Hopefully ships out soon.
Has anyone done a 75,125 or a 150 nitrous hit with the VMPs TVs yet?

Didn't your 50 shot cause rear bumper damage??
I don't remember. Will be trying it again in the next week or two after the new TB goes on
