| Three MAF Shootout | ||||||||||||||||||
| BLUE is the Pro-M 75mm Bullet and the homemade CAI RED is the Pro-M 77 GREEN is the stock MAF with a K&N and the air silencer removed. A quick glance at the numbers: Stock: 220.8 rear wheel horsepower 264.1 ft-lbs of torque at the wheels Pro-M 77 235.0 rwhp (+14.2hp) 280.6 rw ft-lbs (+16.5ft-lbs) Pro-M 75mm Bullet 238.4 rwhp (+17.6hp) 284.8 rw ft-lbs (+20.7 ft-lbs) WINNER: PRO-M 75MM BULLET It sported the best numbers by a minimal margin, but it costs half of the price of a Pro-M 77. With a larger MAF and air filter, bumped timing, and shorty headers, my car is making the factory flywheel rating at the drive wheels. While these numbers will not win a major NMRA drag race, they are impressive in illustrating how easy it is to make substantial gains on a 94 or 95 5.0 Cobra with minimal cash invested. Of note: The Pro-M 75mm Bullet is not a replacement one. It does not fit in the stock airbox, and requires the use of a CAI. The Pro-M 77 was forced to breathe through the stock air 'S' turn intake hose. Due to it's size, I was unable to make a suitable CAI for the 77. The Pro-M Bullet is shown at Pro-Flow's web site. |

| How Can Someone Duplicate My Results | ||||||||||||||||||
| This questions comes up frequently on Corral.net's Forums. People will say they didn't get the same results when they used a replacement Bullet in the factory airbox or with this companies CAI they didn't have as nice of a gain etc. The best advice I can give someone looking to duplicate these results is to buy a Bullet as pictured in the forth image down, the meter on the far right. The calibration scribed on my meter reads as follows: Model 75mm94-5C Serial 00a4435 CAL 19C Also, you'll need to build a CAI like I did, with directions listed here. Good luck! |
