Cam, ported heads, ported lower, windstar, roller rockers, and maybe High comp pistons. That will get you close. Or you can just get a turbo and you should get about 100 out of it on full stock engine. Why 300 though? That is like good N/A, or not so good turbo.

 

I really don't want a high horsepower v6 just want around 250-300hp becuase next summer I am getting a 03 cobra. But till then I to work with my v6.

 

just wait next summer

 

i need to have fun with the v6..idk if i should do a supercharger like a m112/procharger or stay n/a

 

the amount of money for heads/cam/intake that might get you to 250-275whp would probably be not that much less than swapping in an 8.8 and putting on a turbo/s/c

 

Here is the best kept secret to getting 300 RWHP out of your V6.... TRADE IT IN AND GET your Cobra. Unless you have something to prove it is just not worth it. Wait on the cobra and save your cash for a tune/exhaust/smaller pulley or just add a blowzilla

 

Yeah if hes really getting a cobra, I would save up and spend it on the cobra later on.

 

Put a hemi in it!


Yeehaw!



Check out Super Six Motorsports and their hci stuff. Fun site :yes

 

:lmao

Seriously...Just wait for the the cobra all you put into the six could go towards the whipple SC...0.0

 

If your getting a cobra, then save the money for more fun it the cobra

 

I agree save up that's what I am doing instead of a cobra a new 5.0 or older Shelby

 

I am 100% getting a cobra next summer and I am keeping my v6...The cobra is gonna be a present from my parents. Right now in High school i got the loudest car now i need a little more hp lol.....

 

Just save the money for the cobra.

 

I know I am asking in the wrong section but how much HP can a 03-04 cobra handle and how much are the whipple or kenne bell superchargers I will just not mod the v6 anymore and save up.

 

depends, kenne bell are a little better IMO but you'll pay for the quality. both full kits are expensive. and a stock termi engine should be able to take about 800whp

your better off starting off with a pulley swap and a tune, easily add 75whp right there.

 

I checked the kenne bell website the 2.6H kit is $3,400..

 

KB is WAY too big. When you put an M112 on the V6, you have to get a pulley to drop the boost. The stock pulley gives WAY too much boost for the car to handle.

 

The termi has foraged internals and can handle more hp than you would probably reach in your car so i say Whipple or Kenneth Bell sc and you would have around 600hp so instead of putting it in the v6 throw that 3,400 in the cobra because they have the most potential compared to any gt or v6 in those years...

 

Does the mach 1 have the same engine as the cobra but without the sc?

 

basically but it runs a much higher compression ratio thats not boost friendly. so you have to limit the boost or swap in lower comp pistons. the mach1 motor is a little better than the 99-01 cobra motor cause the mach has forged pistons

 

I was talking about the kenne bell on the cobra

 

oooh. nvm

 

But till the summer I want to do something to the v6..I don't know what to do its hard to pick.......

 

no offense... but a soon to be college student... with 390+ RWHP car with a v6 now. You BETTER be safe with it and not wrap up that car around a pole. i will drive down to NJ and slap the **** out of you if you do.

 

+1 only the cobras do.

 

+1 only the 03-04 cobras do.

fixed


for the OP, if you are actually going to get a cobra, dont waste a dollar on this car, because its not gonna sell for any higher, and its just going to be a waste of money

if you want 300whp the easiest way
intake, exhaust, pulley, tuner, 75shot. done

 

Save the money and spend it on the cobra especially since your parents are buying it for you.

But if you must spend it on the V6 I'd suggest a TMA turbo kit, probably the easiest thing for someone with limited mechanical knowledge since most of the parts are there and you dont have to fab much. It will still probably be around $5-6k after install and tune and everything else

 

I really don't race in the streets or go to the track I really like the power lol...My parents say I am a really good driver for a 17 year old thats why they trust me with the cobra...I am not going to collage..going to Lincoln Technical Institute so I will have money to work on my cars...I got longtube headers on so I can't get a turbo im thinking about a m112 or procharger...

 

i believe the m112 is what you should go with, its better for engines with lower redlines like ours since a procharger wont make good boost until your higher. im sure you could make some serious power with it, idk what pulley the mysteed kit comes with but you can always adjust it. should be able to run 12psi.

 

usually when you have 10 ppl giving you the same advice its a good idea to take it.

For your future cobra i would definitely go with the KB charger. I personally don't like the mach1, never have, and the cobra is better/faster/more powerful, the only thing the mach has going for it is 6 or 700 more rpm at red-line, and you don't race so whats the point. for a daily driver a sc is usually a better idea than turbo anyway due to the lower rpm boost range and the fact that you will probably mostly be driving on city streets where there isnt much room to get into the upper rpm range outside of just melting ur rear tires.

 

there is a lot of highways here that i reach 70+mph on thats when i want to release some power...I don't like sitting not doing work to my car though......

 

walt what part of NJ you in?

 

just about to ask you the same question lol

im actually living on campus at widener university in chester PA but its only 20-25mins away from my house in new jersey. i live in mullica hill, in Gloucester county, wheres howell?

 

In Monmouth County North from you.. I am close to the Englishtown Raceway..Is there a age limit for going to the track?and do you have to pay lol i have no clue...

 

aren't you kinda close to atco too? and yeah you usually pay a small fee to run and you just need a license

 

What supercharger will end up cheaper the m112 or the prochager? i know the m112 is $3000 plus shipping but i need hood and paint it also UDP...
