That upper watts set up is slick, no doubt about it, and I can see where it would reduce wheel hop, my question is, are the people needing it drag racing?? also do you have any ida what kind of HP # they are running. I am just wondering if this slick little mod is needed more for high torque applications rather than the less powerful street machine.

BTW if you email me some pictures of your car and suspension I will help you post them.


If it isn't broken..... modify it anyway!!!!

One of the posters stated the upper watts reduced his wheel hop 70 percent. He does do burnouts in water, when he comes off the line he babies his car.
Also it was mentioned a stock setup can handle 450 HP. But understand there are so many variables. Weight, some Cobras weigh maybe 2,100 Lbs. Tire size, compound, ratios, weight bias, etc... I would recommend reading the threads at CC. Some of these guys are flushed with $$$, some race and others are manufacturer of parts. David Kirkham is a regular there. Personally I think he makes the finest kits. Shelby buys his bodies for his cars. They built an all billet car for I think the owner of Oracle. Check out this link.
