Appreciate everyones comments and as ever interesting to see a range of views. In my situation I have a good spec motor in my cobra that I have never really been able to enjoy, partly because just starting the car after a period of layoff can take 15 mins or more to get to a steady idlde once she actually fires. I have experienced a few really good sessions in the car when it has performed really well only to be disappointed on the next drive out.

I dint race my car and dont have big changes in alttitude or tempaerature - I live in Scotland and to get the car so that if i fancy a drive I can just jump in start her up and drive would eb a huge bonus.

I obviously want to get the best I can from the pretty good motor that I have and am not minded to be changing components on a regular basis but dont want to be dependant on the local dyno if the car requires frequent recalibration/setup.

I have been quoted the price stated from a reputable shop experienced with workong on Cobras and race cars and they have put together a custom setup using various components (MPFI) that they are confident will give me the best I can get from my motor. The problem I have is the price.....so....if TBI, either Sniper or Exterminator can get me most of the things that are importnat to me for less than half the price that's probably the way I'm going to go.

Also interesting to a number of reputable crate motor suppliers in the States now proving motors with Sniper EFI so cant be that bad can they???

Again thanks for all the input guys.....still looking for an answer as to Sniper versus Terminator......
