    Muffler poll. READ BEFORE VOTING!

    I had the magnaflow catted-X and packs on my old GT and never really noticed the sound issue below 3K, but I also had a full WMS intake which probably made the difference. Why not just try swapping out the stock intake for an FIPK or something before you change the catback, definitely cheaper.

    High pressure fitting in cobra blew, no P/S, no Brakes.

    I posted this in SVT, but hardly anybody reads that, so I figured I might get a better response here. The P/S line in my cobra separate after 5 days on the road, and today I find out that the part needed to fix it is backordered in the US, so it isn't even available in Canada. The damn thing...

    HELP! Power steering line blew, what else is damaged?

    Last night, 5 days after I picked up the 04, while I was parking the car the power steering line on the driver's side decided it had had enough. The line separated at the connection between the metal tube and the rubber hose and the system drained instantly. On inspection it actually looked like...

    03 Cobra steering

    Yeah, parking my new 04 is a pain, its like a frigging boat.... but once its moving, no comparison, the cobra is amazing.

    Make that a "2007 Cobra"

    We didn't get that powerlease in Canada, up here Ford dropped the interest rates on cobra's to 0% for a 48 month term and 1.9% for 60. You can get into one now pretty easily.

    Anybody run an FRPP catback?

    Thanks guys. This is my daily driver, but after trading in my GT that had a magnaflow catted X and magnapacks on it this cobra is just dead quiet. Right now I'm looking at a Bassani O/R X as well, but after the feedback about the sound I think I'm just going to try the catback first and see...

    Anybody run an FRPP catback?

    I'm looking at the FRPP M5230-M55 3" catback for my 04 cobra. I'm getting a deal from the dealership so its a hell of a lot cheaper than anything else (including MAC) and apparently its very loud. I can't find any sound clips of it, but a guy on corral has it and says its basically a...

    Mysty

    I was there at lunchtime and didn't see it so if there's one around there its not part of the stock. I think they only got 2 mysti's in this year (1 coupe, 1 vert) and those were both sold over a month ago. I went in and saw the coupe, very nice, but the color shift seats kinda sucked in person.

    MIL Question - Voltage read by ECU keeping car in open loop?

    Missouri_guy answered the question. :nice: Yes, the rear O2s aren't actively used in A/F adjustment, all they monitor whether the cats are working, but if the MILs supply a constant voltage, telling the ECU that the rear O2s are too cold to be read then the ECU will just keep the car in warm...

    MIL Question - Voltage read by ECU keeping car in open loop?

    I'm putting an O/R X on my new cobra and just spoke to the guy that does my exhaust work about MILs. He said that they aren't the greatest thing in terms of solving the CEL problem, and after looking into it a bit I have a question regarding the typical MILs that we're getting (Steeda, Dallas...

    Running out of bolt-ons...

    ....just trade it in for an 04 cobra, that's what I did. Now I can start modding all over again. :D

    2005 Mustang Seat Comfort

    My wife's civic has better seats than my GT.... hell, we had an early 90s prelude that had better seats than my mustang. Maybe its just that the rice burners are made for smaller people so they can put in bolsters, but the stangs are made for... ummmm... horizontally gifted people so larger...

    Magnaflow catted x too loud for daily driver?

    Packs and catted X on mine and its not near loud enough. :)

    Drivin stangs in the winter

    LOL, with ice tires and some extra weight my GT is unstoppable and handles better than 90% of the POS beaters on the road in the winter.

    Mach 460 just crapped out on me!

    This was happening to mine last summer. The head unit would get real hot and the cd player would crap out. Took it in and they swapped in a new head unit no questions asked, apparently its a very common issue with the 460.

    04 or 06 Cobra? Should be easy right, guess again.

    Crap, somebody else got the mysti. Looks like its going to be either redfire or silver for me. My wife is pretty happy about it though, she couldn't figure out why I wanted to drop an extra 4K on an appearance package. Women, can't live with em, and... can't live with em. :)

    04 or 06 Cobra? Should be easy right, guess again.

    My wife has a civic si that can hold THREE baby seats (need a "terrified" smiley), but she won't take it to the grocery store because she doesn't want any door dings. :( Just called my dealer, and they've got one mystichrome left. Only about 5 going to be sold in the province. Wheeee...

    04 or 06 Cobra? Should be easy right, guess again.

    LOL, we decided to wait on the baby because we're both engineers and wanted to get our stamps before we have a child. That way the wife can stay home with the little one, but still do some independent consulting work on the side if she wants to. Thanks for all the responses. I think you...

    04 or 06 Cobra? Should be easy right, guess again.

    I've got an 02 GT and was planning on trading it in in 06 for a cobra but last night my wife informed me that 2006 is when she'd like for us to have our first child. :eek: Now I've got a problem in that I can get an 04 now without any trouble, but if I sit on my butt and wait til the 06s come...
