i love these

@@gopherchucksgamingnstuff2263 Thank you!

[@masta51]

Looks good! Keep it up!

@@masta51 Thanks!

Nice Cobra! Love the yellow! I have the same Kenne Bell 2.8H blower on my Cobra as well. So much more power left in that car.

[@northwesthorsepower8215]

That’s a pretty sweet cold air.

[@mustangdbest220]

THIS IS WHY I LOVE FORD MUSTANGS AND FORD BECAUSE IT’S BEAUTIFUL AND BUILD EXTREMELY TOUGH AND SOUNDS SOO FUCKING GOOD

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

SAME HERE BUT WHY ARE WE YELLING

[@victorxavier9977]

Go Joe! Good video!

[@mgerren88]

nice man need more vids of terminators I must say on this channel

[@Karfix]

great video!

[@xx87gt306xx]

Please tell me you talked him into getting rid of the KB for a vmp gen 3?

[@goodnoughperformance]

No sir hahah. He was just looking to get the car ironed out with the current blower.

[@nadersaleh4643]

Wait what 550 whp u can get these numbers on stock blower what u talking about

[@RB25luv]

🤣🤣🤣💯

[@chrism.728]

You can get those numbers on ported stock blower, but it would be maxed out. That Kenne Bell is making those numbers very easily, and not maxed out. This car still has catalytic converters too.

[@nadersaleh4643]

Chris M. Ya bro ur right but I wouldn’t spend the money and swap the blower for theses numbers tho😌

[@crownvictorialifestyle4421]

Nader Saleh the 2.8 can get up to 26 psi and is twice or more efficient at the same power levels as the Heaton he still has room to grow everyone don't turn the boost up Max right away and imagine he gets E85 he will blow that heaton out the water

[@josephf593]

Does seem a bit low for a twin screw, I made 528 rwhp on a stage 4 port and C12 fuel.

[@KenMileyJr]

Would expect a 2.8 to do mid 600's at least.

[@kingcobra8625]

Make the vids longer

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Hmm okay. What all would you like to see other than an overview of the car and the dyno pull though?

[@chrism.728]

@@VMPPerformanceTV Maybe taking it out for a drive (with owner's permission of course).

[@raymcfarland9965]

Love seeing some Terminator action! Power seems low for that combo. Would have expected at least 600. Maybe the tune was extra conservative or the old girl is just a little tired after 15 years

[@chrism.728]

I think it's conservative and still running catalytic converters too.

[@badmpg]

Chris M. cats aren’t eating up any power.... I saw no difference when I had them with kooks vs ORX pipe This car is down 50-70whp from where it should be

[@chrism.728]

@@badmpg That's why I stated that it's using a conversation pump gas tune. And catalytic converters do choke HP and TQ on big horsepower applications.

[@badmpg]

Chris M. He should pulley to 18-19 psi and up the timing. There is no reason the car shouldn’t make 600+whp. I was making 604 on pump - with a 2.2 safely with less boost and a little more timing. Cats aren’t eating power here because this is not a big power build. You can stay stock manifolds to 650 before you really choke. I ran same size headers kooks w/cats vs no cats and lost 3 ft lbs tq with 3 hp Go look at my vids.

[@cobra20500]

Remember thats down in humid Fl mid July and guessing car doesn't have an upgraded cooling system which is needed badly in the southern states like FL, Tx etc...

[@rggt6225]

Nice but gen 3 is needed at least gen2R

[@347mav3]

I wonder what it would make on e85?

[@chrism.728]

Probably another 50 hp. I think the current tune is conservative, and it's still has catalytic converters.

[@gopherchucksgamingnstuff2263]

I need to get mine to you guys to see whats what. I don't even know how much power it makes for real. Just what the seller said.

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

It would be a good thing to get a known tune in the car and check everything out

[@gopherchucksgamingnstuff2263]

@@VMPPerformanceTV Indeed all i know is it's a VMP gen 1, 2.3 and it will spin 4th at 45mph

[@creepystank420]

I have a fbo 03 GT, can vmp tune it?

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Definitely, email us a full mod list, [e-mail], our tuning department can take a look.

[@creepystank420]

@@VMPPerformanceTV hell yeah man that's awesome. Will do

[@chaddicristo4575]

Boosted Terminator, as opposed to...?? Lol

[@badmpg]

21 psi at peak?

[@goodnoughperformance]

Yes

[@badmpg]

Car is down on power. Should not be 21 psi on pump anyway.

[@goodnoughperformance]

@@badmpg The car had a clogged intercooler that slowed coolant flow and brought downstream air temps up very quickly through the pull, and therefore power down. 21psi can be done on a stock compression engine on 93, although I don't like to if I can avoid it. The customers also get advised that it is very aggressive for pump gas.
