I was in St. Charles MO. YESTERDAY! Picking up my 03 Cobra which I've finally had pullied and ported. More on that in another thread. I spent time talking to Bob, Robyn, and Raelyn.
Until you see the shop and personally spend time talking to Bob it may be hard to understand that they are focused on one thing -AIR FLOW! From Bob's work on cylinder heads to blower improvement. From the investment he's made in special tooling to his design philosophy of taking something and improving it in the most simplistic (but smart) manner.
Please take into consideration the body of work he has already completed on just our cars (03-04 Cobra's). He's ported over 2500 Cobra blowers (roughly 12% of the total population) besides work on Lightnings etc.
As for the roll out of this new package, the blower genius may just be a marketing genius - There was a stack of applications already on their desks.
Wait and see. Keep the mental musings positive and show some respect for someone who has obviously earned it. And not to add fuel to the fire, Bob has some more ideas that he is totally geeked about.
Now I need to go drive my update 500 HP Cobra - Thanks Bob, Robyn, and Raelyn.

Hopefully Bob will post sufficient additional details to at least satisfy the curiosity of those interested. Based on what he's said thus far, it looks promising for the target customers.

CobraBob, thank you as well for your support of the Cobra community. I use your gasket in my car and reference your Cobra Knowledge database often.
Great people who care about these cars make this one of the most visited / posted automotive sights on the internet. I have a 300CSRT8 and the people on those boards have been great but it's hard to hold a candle to this board. Now I'm checking out the CTS-V forums. I just need more cash, or fewer kids.
+1 :dw:
yeah been to the shop plenty of times
Well, this claim of 500 RWHP on 8psi with the Eaton is right up there with the twin-screw blowers. It's definitely got my attention.
Does that mean that this may be an Eaton setup in which we can expect to see 550+ RWHP on pump gas with 15-17psi?

Interesting...

sounds like it.
Willy Stiegemeier announces that twenty lucky people will be given the chance to own a snakebite supercharger, and shown all the secrets of his amazing design, one lucky golden ticket holder will win a lifetime supply of Wonka chocolate. :-D
just kidding! this new blower sounds pretty badass! cant wait for more info!

Just submitted my application. I have been using my Stage 4 on road course for the past 2 years with great results. I am curious to see how the new design would work.

1. IronTerp- Very good explanation.
Thank you
2. SNAKE BITE pricing will be a set price, but depending on your mods, we will quote pricing on a multi level.
With the overwhelming response to be the first to experience the SNAKE BITE I want to be clear that after personally selecting 30 GT 500 and 20 various other Eaton powered vehicles, Saleen, Jag, Roush, Cobra, Lightning ect.. 50 total for 2009.
I will contact the top 50 candidates with price quotes at that time they can decide if they would like to move forward on the project, Then we except their $100.00 deposit to be credited towards their invoice. That will put them in the drawing for the SNAKE BITE giveaway.
Thank you for all of you who have and continue to support us we really appreciate it!

Filled out the application, crossing fingers
This should make for a ultimate sleeper setup.
Well in my mind, if you're changing out the rotor packs and such than it really is no longer a real eaton. It's now a completely different blower! All it has is an eaton shell
Nowhere did anyone say that it will be at 8psi...just stock pulleys. New rotor design and/or different blower snout may very well change the amount of boost with the stock pulleys...:idea:
changing the snout would take most of us hard core eaton guys out of the equation. if the gearing is changed in some way in the snout the guys like me running 16+ psi will not be able to us it unless we change are pulleys. im not sure if it is possible to change the gearing in the snout. i hope not.
By mentioning the "stock pulley" is going to be utilized to make the 500 RWHP/500 RWTQ, it's a reference to say that it will be made with 8psi being as how there would be no way of us knowing his plans to increase psi with the same pulley size.
stock pulley with a 100 shot :shrug:
