Hey, whats up all? I have a new 03 GT that I got in April. So far all Ive done to it is put a MAC cold air intake on it(More is to come but my down payment just cleared). I was looking to put a bigger throttle body on it and I was wondering how much that would really help me with power. Im not expecting much from it though. Also, one of my neighbors has a new Cobra. The day he got it he took it to a shop and had a Kenny Bell SC put on it and he wants to sell me his stock Eaton M112. Will it fit and is it really worth it?

Correct me if l'm wrong but with the s/c, you might wanna go ahead and put forged pistons in it just to be safe. You'll have get a bigger fuel system, get aftermarket heads and cam. The throttle body will help a lot once the blower is in place. Get the 80MM. Congrats on the purchase!

You don't need forged internals to run a supercharger. Just run a lower psi than the cobra (slightly larger pully).
Factory cams in any car will work with F/I. They may not be the greatest, but they will work and allow the engine to run. Freakin sucks for the Satty's....we only have a crappy n/a re-grind and something too mild to be called a re-grind available for us.

Cool, thanks for the info on the supercharger! Just ordered a MAC off road x-pipe and flowmaster american thunder cat back system! I was also considering going to a 160 thermostat. Is that too low, and what is the stock thermostat at?
