This is totally a philisophical discussion. No flames. No polls. No debates. No he-said-she-said. I'm asking a totally legitimate question. Here's my story.
Vortech and ATI both have kits for 03 Cobras. MM&FF put the ATI on a Cobra and made 655rwhp which says to me that 700+rwhp is possible with the proper setup. My 03 Cobra is my second roots blown car so I understand the power delivery. I have a 2006 Duramax Silverado so now I understand turbo delivery(and love it!). But what does 700 centrifigal horsepower feel like? What's the dyno curve like? I was a bit miffed that MM&FF didn't print a graph and instead printed rpm vs power lists. I'm just curious as to how a ceintrifigal blower feels. Can you really go wrong? I know the rising rate power delivery will be less stressful on the engine than a whipple or eaton. I understand that I won't have 90000000 torque at 3000rpm due to the physics involved. Me, personally, I'm still aiming for 700-800rwhp but the cost of turbo setups just doesn't work for me. So, I continue to dream. But I haven't heard of any contrifigal blown 03's. So can you really go wrong? It'll still be plenty fast, right? It'll still roast tires on demand and pull like a freight train until either the road or tach runs out, right? I guess I'm so sketchy about the centri blowers because I have no experience with them and never ridden in a car powered by one. So, I ask for thoughts and opinions on this as I'm just looking for some thoughful conversation.:thumbsup:
