Weineck Cobra 780 cui Limited Edition
I've been that route a couple of year ago. The engine before the one I have now had a 400 shot of NOS making over 1100 horse. That's where I found out where the totally useless horsepower limit was. Probably only used it 5 or 6 times. One day I took the wife for a drive and uttered the famous words....watch this..... we were doing around 50 when I hit the NOS button and ended up 3 lanes over. That' when I decided I didn't really need that much power. The 800 I have now is plenty. Weineck is only .2ths faster in the 8th and .4ths faster in the 1/4 and I can live with that.
