Default Vortech setup on my Cobra
Just had it installed last week. Just a basic set-up, running about 7 psi of boost, don't know exactly how much boost I am running yet, will be installing a boost and fuel pressure gauge very soon. Car is not running right now because I sent my ECM to Vortech to be recalibrated, will be here tomorrow. So far I have only run the engine up to 4000 rpm, it still feels quick even in the low revs, the little bit of boost that comes on, I can feel the increase in power.

Tire shredding video- new tires. But as soon as I get the car back on the road and have my vibrating driveshaft replaced next weekend with a new Ford Motorsport Aluminum driveshaft, some videos will be made.
It's nice to have a car with boost again
