critique me please !


here's mine plan tell me what you think. first i wanna do 3.73 and stedda udp's then i wanna p&p my heads and upper and lower intake since i have a cobra, i dont think its worth the money to get a top end kit. i wanna do a blower cam like steeda 19 with new valve springs. then i wanna strap on a kenne bell cause i like the twin screw for sound and low end torque but i donno i was also lookin at the vortech. i kinda like the low end torque of the twin screw though. let me know what you guys think and any other ideas i've been thinking about this for a while and appreciate the help

You will spend the same amount of money porting those items as you would if you sold them and bought better heads and intake.

I would do that instead of spending money on porting......

Now on the kenne bell's .................

Dont Know if this is typical results....

But the ones designed for the 5.0's have not impressed me at all.....

Heat soak seems to rob all the power.

Friends car last week put down 350 hp and 382 tq with h/c/i and a seeing 9lbs of boost.

IMO i would go with a good centrifugal and call it a day.......

H/C/I and 9lbs. and 350 rwhp = disgrace. That thing is robbing more power than it's making.
