Re: 03 cobra boost issue

Most of my money has been dumped in the suspension. Here's the relevant engine mods.

90 TSi AWD 5spd
stock longblock with 60-trim
Full 3" exhaust with o2 elim.
Extreme Intercoolers street kit
MAFT
ACT2600/XACT Flywheel

I need cams & another bov. Mine flutters. Plus I can't spin the engine high enough to keep it spooled between gears. It pulls like crazy, but you really don't feel it. Not like in my friend's 03.

We raced a couple times yesterday. Both times my car wouldn't go into 4th. I fixed it afterwards. We're going to the track this weekend, but we couldn't wait and I was sorting something out. From 10-110. He jumped me bad through 1-2, about 3 cars. When I hit 3rd I started charging like crazy and was on his back bumper.

Not too shabby reeling in a 450whp 03 cobra from a roll in awd car By sorting out the tune/boost I have enough 100hp waiting. On pump gas no less. He has a couple mods coming so it should be interesting.

I would post the video, but I'd probably be flamed for racing on the street
