hey yall i dont know if this the correct forum but it said dr so point me to the right spot if im off, anyways i just picked up a 96 cobra 97000 bbk h w/cats and 3 chamber flows ( the exhaust is going to be relaced with o/r x and dynomax bullets soon), oh and some heavy ass but (i my opinion) sick ass 19's now ive owned 3 fox 5.0's, 96 gt and my most recent 96 32v cobra.........my question is how do i drive it would some one be kind enough to tell me powerband ranges and shift points and hp/tq peaks i just feel like its bottom end is not as fast as it should be but the high end does it and at almost 7g redline im just not used to it should i truly be lettin it rev launching higher and are the 19's hurting me , not really, somewhat or quite a bit, well thanks for listening i know some of this sounds like rookie stuff but its just such a diffrent car than anything ive ever had its got some power i can feel it but i just have to ...... use it better......figure it out
