Don't get a new cobra then you have to worry about higher car payments and higher insurance. A vortech S-trim 8# will get you 400rwhp with a safe tune on your 96. Anything higher on those hypereutectic(aka hypercrap) pistons and you're asking for trouble. But if you forge the bottom end you can get boost happy and get easily in the 500's. But then the next thing to go would be the tranny, that is if you give it hell all the time. -Mark
