Project 01 Cobra has begun

**Twin01cobra** · 01-11-2007, 12:29 AM

Well the supercharger is off the car and the beginning of the turbo project has begun, we will hopefully be doing twins and if not we will set it up for a single with the twins being able to be added later. We are looking to produce about 650 rwhp on pump gas and at least 850 rwhp with racing gas and added boost, and it will still be a street legal car with AC, full power, factory radio, etc:D . Car will have a flip switch with a street/strip tune and may have a seperate fuel cell for the racing gas. Will post up some pics within the next couple weeks.

850 hp... Is that enough John? Holy sh#t... You better update your life insurance.. There won't be much around that will touch you in a race. Can't wait to see it

That's the plan

Just another update: we decided to go with 60mm turbos because with 57's I'd be limited to 1000 fwhp, any more than that the turbos will be out of the efficiency range. With the 60's I'll be able to make 1000 rwhp and stay within the turbos efficiency range and will be able to upgrade to make more hp. I should hopefully have the car up and running by the end of april or early part of may. So look out all you hot rodders in the area for the yellow jet plane that will be running around the area

Yikes! 1000 HP!! Man, I cannot wait to see this beast when you are done with it!

Off topic: do you still have that GT fuel pump? If you do, maybe we can hook up one day next week for a beer and I can get that off of you. Let me know.
