If you are going blown, go ATI... They are complete kits w/ Intercooler.. Other than that, I don't know what else to do to a Cobra engine, i would think nothing, other than "Blow" it....

The mods in my sig are good for 12.6@110 on 17" Nitto drag radials.

I have a 96 GT but my mom has a 97 Cobra and has run a 12.54 @ 115, in Joliet Illinois with the following mods:
-Nitto Drag radials on stock wheels
-Kenny Brown Extreme Matrix Brace
-Bassani off-road X-pipe and Bassani cat-back
-BBK cold air intake
-BBK throttle body
-BBK underdrive pulleys
-FRPP 190 lph fuel pump
-Bosch Platinum plugs and MSD 8.5mm wires
-Mobil 1 motor oil
-Pro 5.O shifter, Centerforce clutch, FRPP aluminum driveshaft, FRPP 4.10 gears, and Strange Axles

She now has an ATi procharger setup now, and runs mid 11's on the Nitto's

I believe the ET, but the MPH is way to high for a bolt on Cobra. Its just not likely that the car went that fast with a BBK T/B which has proven to will lose hp while staying NA. It looks like she trapped 115 with the stock manifolds, tune, and timing. I will raise the BS flag there. Its not going to happen on a bolt on car. If she had intake work and more gear then I would believe it. Maybe when she first put the blower on she ran those times.

Sounds like a fast family.

I'am going to agree with waldo, 115 mph is a little high with mods listed above. It was probably 105.
