[QUOTE="mustangvsix, post: 15038646, member: 74332"] Ok, so just purchased a 2003 Cobra with 17k miles. Truly mint condition inside and out. Go Fast Mod that I have found so far: Bassani Cat-Back Exhaust Bassani Catted X-pipe MGW Short Shifter Billetflow 4 piece Pulley (2.93” w/ 100mm Idler) JLT CAI AFCO Double Pass Heat Exchanger Aluminum Supercharger Coolant Tank Aluminum Radiator Reservoir Car dyno'd at 448rwhp / 466 rwtq based on the paperwork I have, some years back. Do you see any modifications I should be pairing with this set up to keep the car running as it should? Issues/Questions: A) The transmission is notchy and noisy. Is that just the nature of the beast? Read about the anti-venom mod and did adjust the clutch using the stock adjustment procedure. B) I see blue fuel injectors coming off the rail? Are those stock and if not how would I figure out their flow rate? C) The real kicker, with the pulley and such I think it should be pushing max boost around 13-14lbs, when I am driving it hard and go WOT in 2nd, when I get near the top of the RPM range and clutch in to shift, the car feels like the brakes get hit. Looses all its power (car is still running), shift into 3rd, clutch out and gas it and go's like no tomorrow. Just keeps flying like a freight train. From what I have read it could be the spark plugs blowing out? Does that sound related/similar? It only gets me on the 2-3 shift at WOT. Not 1-2 and have not done a 3-4 at WOT to the top of the range yet. What plugs do you all recommend and what gap? (Seeing a lot of NKG TR6 or Autolites at .028-.032 gaps) A few day 1 pics. Will do a nice shoot once I wash it this weekend. Need to de-chrome it a little bit too. [ATTACH]51878.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]51879.vB[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
