PM a price and let me know if it's a complete kit - a list of everything included, mileage and condition.

Thanks

What kind of mass air flow meter? If I go new, I might still be interested in the 42S / Meter.

Hey, Romo. Make any decision on mods to your Cobra?

I've pretty much made up my mind and will be ordering the Vortech (V3) soon. I have been looking into the best places to order the kit. Most of them will match others prices.

I would like to run around 10 pds of boost. Can't wait!

Z282SLO - what mass-air are you running? I want to run 42 lb. injectors as well and will need the Massair and injectors - I don't want to use the fmu that comes with the Vortech kit. Did you add a nice FPR as well?

about all the questions but our setups will be very similar....

Get a hold of Bob Kurgan. In the past he can pretty much guarantee the lowest price on Vortech kits.

Funny you say that - He's first on my list. Used to live right by him in Illinois quite a few years back.

I'm waiting to hear back from Kurgan.

I must say, I'm going back and forth on what I want to do....... The new polished 2.1 KB is very tempting to me! Pricing everything out - the KB is not really THAT much more coin. I don't put a ton of miles on my car and the around town driving with all that torque sounds like fun.

No worries about the questions. My pleasure to pass on info about my set-up.

I'm using a Professional Mass Air Systems 80mm MAF along with a K&N High-Flow Oval Tapered Filter. I did not use the Vortech FMU. The fuel system was upgraded w/42-lb injectors, Edelbrock 255 lph in-tank pump, Vortech T-Rex external pump and BBK adjustable FPR. I also upgraded the exhaust with BBK long-tube headers, BBK off-road H pipe and Flowmaster 40s. The ignition is upgraded w/MSD blaster TFI coil and boost timing. When all was complete, the car was professionally dyno-tuned and has been a terror on the road ever since!

If you do something similar, you will not be disappointed! I see that you're still considering the KB set-up. I'm sure you can't go wrong with either, IMO the Vortech system simply gives you the most bang for your buck. Good luck with everything.

I pulled the trigger and ordered the following from Bob Kurgan Motorsports:

Vortech V3/SI-Trim - Polished Tuner-kit (Got a fantastic price from Bob!)

AFM Powerpipe
KMS-Torquer 340 in-tank fuel pump

I just can't wait to get everything installed and tuned. I still need to order a Pro-M / 42LB Injectors.....

Nice!! Your Cobra's in for a major transformation.
