Have you seen that shelby just released the 2011 super snake package? You can get an optional 800 horsepower package.

It shouldnt void your warrenty anyways. the only way they can is if it is the direct problem. Thats part of the Magnuson-Moss Act.

I was going to do a nice set of wheels and tires, but I think this would sure wake the car up a bit. I've only put about 700 miles on the car and I'm already bored with the power level.

I'm weary of the lack of tunes out for this car so far. I think I'll wait and not be one of the first. Plus when the weather is nicer this will be more fun.

Yea, I wouldn't let anyone other than Devin tune my car. I spent a small fortune building my 03 Cobra 5.0 stroker with PSR back in 07-08, and it was nothing short of awesome. Car made great, safe power and was a blast to drive. I think it's why I'm not all that impressed with the power level of the Shelby. Not to mention nothing beats the sound of an 03 with LT's and full 3" exhaust with no cats!

I'm not going to do a pulley/tune on this car unless I swap blowers. I think I'm going to pull the trigger on the 750hp kit in the fall. In the meantime it looks like FRP finally has the springs released for the 2011, so I'm going to lower it and leave it alone till the blower goes on.

I'll admit I do miss that car quite a bit. From a SOTP perspective the Shelby doesn't compare in stock form. The overall platforms between the two cars are MILES apart though. Makes me sort of think I should have kept the cobra as well.

If I stop by the shop next week, I'll end up spending $6k + on a blower, something I want to do this fall, in lieu of this week!! A visit to PSR, for anything other than an oil change and to drink beer, usually runs me around $5k a visit!
