wat do u mean in the long run?
i am talking about 1/4 mile here.
have any of you guys with Vortech been to track? if so, wat is best you guys can do?
BTW, 10 hp is about 100lb.
if u said the best tune s2ki with vortech at 9psi is 350rwhp, and it has 400lb less. Meanwhile mine with 400rwhp, so i still have 50 rwhp advantage, and i dont know how many torque i have over you guys. i have 3.73 gear, and u said if the s2k with a vortech 9 psi and 4.77 gear will beat me. There is something that doesn't add up

BTW, this is just a theory, i plan to go to Sacrament Raceway this Wed. i ll find out wat best i can do with my new set up. people with the same as my set up has do best 11.7@117 mph. for more info: www.modfords.com on the Kenne Bell tech forum

Edit: here is the dyno on Kenne Bell website for a stock GT with just catback + KB9psi
You would most likely win. I have raced a couple of cars that trap inthe 117, 118 range and they put a few cars on me from a 20 punch. I do have heavy chrome wheels, but I don't think it would make that much difference. With 4,77's I think it would be very close.

I would think he would pull alittle more on the Cobra considering that he should be trapping 2-3 mph higher then its 103 mph speed.

Sirrach- What does your S trap in the 1/4 mile? AS far as tuning goes I would think that the fuel curve and timing should be tuned on a dyno to give you more hp or at the very least make the car run more efficiently.
Hey Snake, I'm not sure what my car would trap at as I haven't ran it yet (i'm afraid of blowing my rear end). Maybe some of the SC guys that have ran at the track can chime in?

I was wondering if I could dyno tune the fuel curve with the stock comptech setup (with that little black box?) or would i have to buy an eManage or something? Thanks. I plan on buying an ems so I dont' want to spend too much on something I want to replace later on anyways.

modded for modded, GT is no match for S2K
I don't know who would say such a thing because of course a 4.6L V8 would take mods better than a N/A 2.0L I4.

But as for stock vs. stock, chances are the S will win, if the driver knows what he's doing. Just a couple of days ago, I left a conv. Mustang GT 5-sp 3 cars behind from 30-90-ish mph. We were both cruising top-down, then he decided to pick on me. Needless to say, he was surprised that a little 4-cyl could pull on his almighty V8.
