    96 cobra

    Depending on the year...but mostly that's true. When I used to have my GT, (04) with 4.10s, the stock 94-95 Cobras were pretty easy, but 96-98 was all different.

    Finally got my ride, opinions welcome.

    I would leave the badges, but take off the letters. Having those badges is a symbol of pride.... Great looking car btw!

    5.0L vs 305HP 4.6L

    If he meant 275 fwhp, then may be, but most people talk in regards of rear wheel, not fly wheel hp. So by that way of thinking, yah 40RWhp is a giant difference. It's still a Cobra, and that is what matters.... just not a very powerful one stock.

    Couple of suggestions.... A) Dont consider anything less that 4.30s. (These rev. WAAYY more than your fox) B) 315s in the rear

    1999 cobra convertible exhaust help

    Keep your Borla mufflers.... Go with Bassani headers, they are pricey but worth it. Either mid length or long tube..

    underdrive pullies on a 2000 4.6

    Although you free up some HP, that is not really the good thing about pullies. They free up torque, which as the big man says.."wins races". You will be fine, and probably notice a difference. They are a good investment if you are going to stay N/A.

    Off road Pipe ?

    Simple formula.. low revving GT........ H pipe (more low end torque) high revving Cobra...X pipe (more high end pull) At the same time, for sheer cost, a Mac h pipe is about as cheap as it gets, but there may be some fitment issues.

    Long tubes

    Bassani mid lengths FTW. They bolt right up to my bassani x pipe.... Most exhaust people will tell you that there is hardly any difference in the bassani mid lengths and long tubes power wise. Btw, I have the catted x pipe and the cats are the lowest part on my whole exhaust. I never have...

    Summit Sport seat color problem. Saddle Interior guys in here.

    I am pretty sure that would be a common problem.... I have the EXACT same thing....I also have the rear seats...but mine were in it when I got the car, so given the choice, I decided they were ok for now. For future reference, I would like to know the answer to this as well, as Ford had 2...
