I have the Dynotune EFI wet kit (150 shot) with all the accessories (heater, purge, digital window switch, etc) ready to go on- also looking at a C4 Automatic Street/Strip that should help with my "Driving Mrs. Daisy" shifting!

I'm going over some small issues, and then moving on.

The Blower Cobra's (Terminators) prefer dry shots- the older Cobra's (96-98) have heads that are better suited to Nitrous.

That's a guy who sprayed at like 2k rpm without a tune and it's a different Intake than the 96-98 Cobra's. I remember him posting about it.. several things were done wrong.

Why a C4 and not a the auto out of a Mach 1? The auto Machs fly with power adders and those trannies can be beefed up nicely.

Car looks good, keep at it!

Primarily cost. I would have to also get a computer from a Mach 1, maybe harness, and the tranny.

The C4 will take more abuse and is a bit lighter.
