Mac's Twin Turbo Cobra....information and build thread
- Thread starter mac823
- Start date
It's alive!! Started it up today around 5PM!! It will be getting tuned tomorrow, so I will have more videos and numbers tomorrow too 
The only thing left to do is hook up the driver's side downpipe! Sounded amazingggg in person. Sorry for the bad quality, this was taken off my camera.

Overview of what the engine bay looks like with it finished...I will most likely be changing the silver cross-braided lines to black ones. As you can see I have a tonnn of XRP fittings and lines!
Pictures from the front of the car:
The one thing left to do. Re-weld the driver-side downpipe to fit better.
Moroso oil breather with XRP fittings
All XRP fittings and lines for the oil lines and scavenge pump

It's been awhile...update please!!
So here's the update you all wanted!! I wasn't able to be there to see this and sorry it's a crappy video, it's from their Iphones....I will get to see the race gas tune though
I talked with my tuner and decided my street tune will be only 15#
So here's the video and dyno! It made 585rwhp/622rwtq with onlyyy 12 degrees of timing. I could make a lottt more if we bumped the timing up, but I wanted it really low to be 100% safe! So race gas tune will be next week

Hahaha thanks man!
Thought I would throw up some pictures I took yesterday while I was at the shop before it was tuned! I thought it looked badass sitting there so I had to take some pictures! I will lower it about 1/4" more in the front and then I think it will sit PERFECT

So went over there and started it up today and got a video of the startup and revving it too! Couldn't rev it too much cuz we had the alternator unhooked....It's insane though...just touching the pedal you can feel the massive power potential and how quickly it revs too! It sounds so freakin' incredible...especially when you're there. I'll have some better vids when it gets the race tune!!

Also here's some pics:
The fuel regulator:
The final look under-hood! (Needs to be cleaned up biggg time! I will do that really well when I bring it home....get it shininggg!)
Also a couple of the boost controller and what it looks like mounted!

That's amazing man...so what do you figure the numbers will be on race gas? God....more than enough..lol.
I know someone with a black convertible cobra...pushin' quite abit power. I always mention your car and he always replies..."I'd love too but that's just nuts".

Hahaha yahhh definitely more than enough....Judging by other cars I should be around 850rwhp/840rwtq. We will see though!!
Hahaha yahhhh...it's definitely more than enough and is insane. Thank God for my 14" wide drag radials lol.
Yahhhh man they are really no joke....stock blocks that can handle 1,000rwhp...so crazy. What's done to his? It has to be turbos...the blowers can't make that much power.
