We've already had that conversation. He is holding off getting all the emissions stuff in order because the registration is good thru next summer, and he figured there is a decent change it won't make it to next summer to even need the emissions equipment....

That was all on the stock tune, injectors, and fuel pump believe it or not.

Last week I got the fuel system all sorted (HFP 300 lph pump, DEKA 60 lb/hr injectors) and loaded a 2.5 BAR tune and 2 BAR MAP sensor so it doesn't cut into limp the second it sees the crazy airflow going through.

Now the thing is downright scary. Will spin the (stock size) tires in 4th on the freeway.

It really is a monster. I haven't been in a big block Shelby Cobra, but I expect it's a very similar sensation.
