I've gotta supercharged 98 cobra. No aftercooler. Is the powerpipe worth it or am I risking the chance of damaging my motor? I heard that if I get the car tuned right after installing the powerpipe, it should be ok. Anyone out there with a powerpipe?

I have the anderson ford N/A powerpipe [Big Grin] hasn't seem to of 'broken' my motor (yet) [Wink]

although raising boost without raising fuel is never a good idea, unless you were rich to begin with. I believe they claim a solid 1-2 PSI gain with the powerpipe, however if you have a FMU that adds fuel based on boost, you should be good.
