I love my king cobra, has enough grip to lock solid when you bang second during a good clip, it'll snap your head back, and that's with a stock motor! Pedal effort is excellent and they're the right price. If I had more motor maybe I'd be able to tell you how it holds up, but I don't. It does feel like it can handle alot more than the stock motor, though. I thnk it will last a long time, but it sure does take forever to break in when you do it right. I drove about 200 easier than Grandpa miles, then about 300 normal sane person driving, then I unleashed it and WOW, big difference over stock. It helped me understand how much HP I was losing to clutch slippage before I put it in.
