Balancing is more of a option, a unnessecary one.
Please tell me you don't really believe that?!? You've obviously never actually built an engine....or just don't care. If you have ever driven or built a balanced engine you will never do otherwise.

I even balanced a 350 going into a work van...not performance but you can't even feel it running.

You really have much to learn there

No, i know and understand it. I was joking. Some backyard people dont balance stuff, but i was joking. B)

Yeah i'm betting it was Chris Johnson up tuning using the SCT software (he is one of the creators). Any idea who's 04 it was? I am betting on it was the guy that works at Golden Rule BBQ in Pelham. He has some serious exhaust going on and toped off with Chris tuning, I can only imagine it would be good.

on second thought, it may have possibly been the guys from Running With The Devil who uses diablo software for tuning.
Rex Holder is the owner of the car. I'm not sure if he posts here or not but it would be a good time to get him to join.

hi all, thanks Norm.

The car pulled 445.9 RWHP and 417.9 RWTQ SAE Corrected at Walkers DynoTune... a dynojet.. on Saturday. that was after a Predator Tune by James with RWTD.
From what I have heard, those are the highest numbers for a 03/04 with just a CAI, CatBack and a Tune.
Running the K&N FIPK, a BBK Chrome Inlet Tube, and a MagnaFlow CatBack

stock catted H-Pipe, stock Pulley, Stock Blower


the numbers will be confirmed by Blake, James. or several other Cobra owners that were there...

i know you probably already planned on this, but i gotta ask the question:

Is everything stiffened up on that chassis to handle all that power?

That flexible fox chassis will give anyone a hard time putting all that hard earned horsepower to the ground.

The Sn95's were 65% stiffer than the Foxes.

I'd hate to see all that power get lost in body flex.

I hope it is ready. I know I may have some other things that may show up. We chose the fox for the weight.

While I still wait for my PRO-M MAF meter, I decided to replumb from the SC to the throttle body.

Just a thought for the future if it doesn't make the numbers you want or if you just want more....you will make more power with a better intake .

Good luck and keep us posted
