Its a twin screw blower and I imagen it is made more for the track than the street. I have read that if your running anything less than 25#s of boost you have to get an aftermarket hood to clear it. It apparently takes a good bit of power to spin it from what I've read. I imagen a W140AX would be the better Whipplecharger to get for street use, but IDK.

im sure youd need an aftermarket hood anyways, that blower looks massive.
of course, being a bigger beast its meant for a bigger application. just bolting it on without any support and trying to run the same amount of boost as a 140ax is going to give you less than desireable results. it would be like me trying to slam a 60trim into a stock dsm and running 8psi because i dont have the support to run it, it wouldnt be nearly as if i ran the correct turbo for my goals with the correct support. i think too many times people just buy the biggest part thinking it will net the biggest gain, but thats not always the case, as you first need realistic goals and need to use parts suited for those goals for the most efficient combo.

You can get this blower as an upgrade for the Ford GT. Its pretty damn expensive though.  I wonder how much it will cost for the Cobra.

Yes it will bolt on to a cobra...it takes a special adapter plate that whipple is not making, but lethal is.
It is useless for a stock block motor because it moves more air than the motor can take in so you see no gains from it over the 2.3L really. Just like the KB 2.8L is too much for a stock block...it requires a stroked motor.
There are a few guys running it...but they have a 302 and a 324 I believe...so they are all set for it.
None the less, it is way over kill.

I bet it will probably make a ton of power on the GT500's. Look at what the KB 2.8 did for them. |

I wasn't hating on the GT500, I was giving it a complement. You must be doing some drinking Mr. Zim. 
Look here.

The GT500 does suck. Is over rated. This will make some good power on there just like it does on the GT. And the terminator does own the GT500 in all areas.
There, now I gave you what you were fishing for and trying to instigate.
Begin GT500 vs Terminator debate now... |

putting a blower thats to big is like putting a 5,000 shot of Nitrous on a car that can only take 100 (not a perfect comparison but what ever) its just not a good idea.

This is irrelevant. We are supposed to start debating the superiority of the terminator over the GT500 or vice versa now. So, please do not stick to topic from this point forward. |

I believe that at the end of the day the GT500 is a step up from the terminator, even though the terminator does a few things better. Just an overall average of the vehicle. If ford would have invested a bit more though and care into a few areas it would have been much nicer, but oh well... maybe they will do some of this in the years to come of production. I guess they knew the price would jump up to nearly 50k if they kept doing this and that so they had to cut corners and do things that people wouldnt like... but... probably 80% of them sold go to people who dont have a clue and assume 500hp = all they care about and they wont really race it. I used 80% due to more GT500 owners will care about performance than GT or V6 drivers.
