    off or on road x pipe?

    I have the catted X and it came with pipes too, so you can do an easy switch. I like the option of going both ways. :nice:

    450 HP N/A 01 cobra... LOL

    That’s a good one, but it doesn’t beat the time I had a ricer tell me his 5.0 stang had a supercharged transmission. :rlaugh:

    Can I beat you guys????Me vs. 03 Cobra who wins?

    I had a 95 Cobra with a 8pound Ford Motorsport blower, Headers H pipe and cat backs with a good tune and I was at 330 rwhp. :D I think in your case it would be a driver’s race. I have seen several 03 owners running high 13’s out at the track due to poor driving. :nonono:

    Check these stock Eaton #'s

    Very tempting, I have always heard of motors melting and such that I have never thought once about it, but with those numbers wow. I have seen kits for around $500, but I would think tune, and installation are the most important. Any suggestions or things to look out for? :shrug:

    Thinking about getting a new Cobra...few questions

    That one-second is about six car lengths, and that’s without mods. You can expect another second off that with a $3,500.00 investment. :nice:

    What do you guys think of these 20 inch rims/tire combo??

    There is one and only one reason to go over 18” for a Mustang, and that would be “the bling thing”. :nonono: Those looking for performance need not apply.

    Check these stock Eaton #'s

    I’ve got the same mods, and more and even though my tune is really conservative on 91 gas I’m getting only 502rwhp. Can a 100 shot really make a 200hp difference?

    Ran a little w/ an '05 on the Freeway

    I saw one out at the Sacramento Airport yesterday. It was a black GT, and I wasn’t much impressed personally. Parked my Cobra next to it and the GT didn’t look nearly as mean, but I guess I’m bias. I wouldn’t say it looks bad at all; it just struck me as somewhat bland in style and not a...

    Saw an '05 Mustang on freeway!

    I wouldn’t say it looks bad at all; it just struck me as somewhat bland in style and not a muscular stance. My thoughts were reassured when I parked my car next to it and saw them both together. It’s obviously a different look, and I’m sure with some body kits that will come out, like the...

    Saw an '05 Mustang on freeway!

    I think they may be selling them already, I saw one out at the Sacramento Airport yesterday. It was a black GT, and I wasn’t much impressed personally. Parked my Cobra next to it and the GT didn’t look nearly as mean, but I guess I’m bias.

    PROS and CONs to running Solid GT rear in 03 CObra?

    Off topic, but you can go to the two part Baer rotors in the front and save 24 pounds in unsprung weight where it counts the most. :nice:

    Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotors Which ones to choose from?

    Thanks all for the replies and some cool pictures. My car is for weekends, but I also race it occasionally at Thunder Hill raceway in northern California. Looks and performance are both important, and I see great arguments for both types.

    Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotors Which ones to choose from?

    Now that I’m done with all the H.P. mods it’s time for brakes. Can I get everyone’s opinions on the two options for the 03 cobra brake upgrades please? There is a price difference of $400+ is it worth it? :shrug: Thanks! :nice: Aimca drilled and slotted with silver coating $490.00...

    Just DYNO'd my 2004 COBRA

    I’m selling a new one on e-bay right now for $299.00 :nice: It’s the new model with increased adjustability. I paid $400.00 for it last week but the tuner used a chip instead so I don’t need it.

    Dyno numbers in the heat

    I noticed you plan on porting the blower. It was my experience that the gains are minimal without also doing the throttle body and inlet pipe. :shrug: Those numbers look right SAE with the mods you have listed.

    Ported Blower and throttle body results.

    Got it back last night, and it sounds awesome! The timing could be moved forward a bit to squeeze out some more hp, but it is very conservative for now so I’ll drive it for a wile and see how it goes. I hear 500hp is pushing the limits of the stock fuel system, anybody have any knowledge...

    Lowering Cobra

    I always prefer the handling that Steeda offers. I know from experience some of the Roush cars have problems with rubbing when lowered. :shrug:
