I've searched this site thoroughly and I don't see a lot of information on the VMP gen 3 supercharger for the cobra.
I recently purchased a stock 04 cobra with 70k miles. I want a setup that will hopefully promote some vehicle longevity, so I guess I'm looking to keep the car around 600-650hp, on pump gas without crazy boost levels.
Everyone raves about the 2.3 tvs being a great fit for these goals and this application. Nonetheless, I'm hesitant to pay $3500 for a used one, when I can get the new 2.65 for $4400 or whatever.
Is the bigger 2.65 really going to feel sluggish compared to the 2.3 when running only moderate boost and pump fuel? Or does the newer technology of the gen 3 kind of make up for that difference.
Thank you.
