I don't know about stock...it's been awhile since it had the stock pulley on there. It has the 2.74 right now, I think... It doesn't take anything to get that thing to turn. The damn thing goes into boost when barely give it any gas...we all love 15mpg right??

I'll share a few vids with you guys...my SS vs my brother's 03 Cobra. If sound doesn't work, try switching over to windows media player. The description of the races are below the video's link
http://video.ls1tech.com/search/cobr...3e4b6f0ef3.htm
His car was stock other than exhaust and K&N CAI kit.
Mine had exhaust, lid/filter, ported TB and tune.
http://video.ls1tech.com/video/62d19...0100d41329.htm
After he got work done on the car and me with the same mods as before.
He was now putting down 14psi vs 8.5psi. The final numbers for him are 454rwhp and 472rwtq I believe.
http://video.ls1tech.com/search/cobr...df00da9af6.htm
His mods are the same as before...14psi and I had just gotten my car running after putting the turbo on. I'm only running 5psi here and the lag cost me the race, but you can really see the difference...sorry for the crappy video, it's hard to drive, shift and film at the same time
Now, I don't have video of our most current race, but now that I'm at 7psi, I pull away from him like he did from me when we were stock (1st video), except when I hit 4th gear, I REALLY pull away from him (almost like he did from me in the 2nd video.)
ENJOY!

Is yours an 03 or 04 COBRA?

Good vids but you really need to crank the boost up on your car. He still has MAJOR modding room in that Cobra. Dont let down the "LS1 w/ FI is an easy solution for Cobras" crowd. Easier said than done. Crank it up !!

That sux...Nice GTO for sure.
That is why I have a very safe tune, 6.5psi, and rarely see over 5k rpms. Need to play it as safe as possible until the Forged gets done. I normally don't see higher than 4 psi. Just can't afford a blown motor right now.

Not on the boost right now though.
Waiting on my new fuel pump and front mount to come in, then it's going back on a trailor to TRT and straight on the dyno. Thats when the fun will begin.

Being a GTP guy I will say that slapping a smaller pulley with no supporting mods is just asking for your engine to blow up. Plus the detonation would slow it down.
