    New 1/4mile Time (6 April 08)

    yeah my highest mph was 12.9 @ 117mph. I was surprised to see i lost 3mph but at least i was thankful for the faster 1/2 second drop off that time to pull out a 12.4 @ 114mph. Most people i see at the track with slicks and trapping 115-117mph are running 11.5s all day long. I have the...

    New 1/4mile Time (6 April 08)

    i'm hoping. I need more practice still. I've only raced it twice now. But i want to try and hit a 12.0 before i go to slicks. And i can't get my damn 60ft times below a 2.0! :fuss:

    What octane do you run in your cobra?

    I run 93 Octane on the street and on the drag strip as its my daily driver and track car all in one :) TBH, i dont see how running a higher octane will HURT your performance. do you really think you'd actually NOTICE the performance loss from driving with 93 as opposed to 87? i seriously doubt...

    New 1/4mile Time (6 April 08)

    Took the cobra out for my 2nd trip to the track ever with her since i got her last august. Went to Island Dragway here in New Jersey today where i did my fastest run with her so far. Before the time that i did today (timeslip below) my best run prior was actually my 1st run EVER with her, which...

    just curious..

    well you think a 96-98 cobra responds well to bolt ons, you should see an 03/04 cobra :nice: As for swapping out cams...the 4v modular motor isn't as easy as your old 5.0 to just start ripping apart. if you're a tech/mechanic thats one thing but if you're a back yard do it yourselfer, you might...

    Does my mustang havea 2V or 4V 4.6 in it?

    The 1999-2004 GTs are your body style. They have a 281 (cubic inch) engine which translates to a 4.6L engine, 2V (valve) V8 SOHC (single overhead cam) meaning 1 cam over each head, giving it 2 valves per cylinder. 1 intake valve 1 exhaust vavlve . Making 260 HP (engine) which is about 235rwhp...

    I think i just blew up my car with my new mongoose kit....

    yes 12.5 is dangerously lean. 11.5 is a bit low though. I would stay between 11.5 and 12.0 for a daily driver. My 2004 Cobra is tuned to 11.9 air/fuel Dont know much of anything about turbos. hope these other guys can help ya out

    NJ state inspection

    depends on the year of the car. my 04 Cobra passed with L/T headers and hollowed out cats on my SLP Xpipe with an SLP loudmouth exhaust...as u can imagine it was LOUD. Because after a certain year, they dont do a sniffer test on the car. what year is your car?

    Looking at 4.10 gears

    stock gears on your car are 3.27. The price for 3.73s or 4.10s are the same. And yes the labor is $200-300 independently. A dealer would probably charge about $400-500. I had a friend Ford Master Tech install mine after hours at his dealership for $200. WHATEVER YOU DO...make sure you buy...

    Cold air kit is it worth it?

    If its not a JTL intake, its not worth buying. IF you go with anything, go with their stuff IMO

    Agent 47: Double A-Arm

    well that sure is interseting. Wonder how much it costs..

    help...need quick advice

    well your re-sale value on that car is going to be like $500. So if you buy it, FORGET about trying to get any kind of money re-selling it.... For $8k you can get yourself a nice 96-98 Cobra. And if you save another grand or 2 you can get yourself a 99 Cobra. There are also nice GTs to be had...

    Something people need to stop doing..

    If you run a 12.99 its a 12 second car. You start talking like you do above here and you're crossing a fine line.... like...whats a 12 second car to you? 12.6? 12.7? how about 12.75? or 12.79? :) If you cross the barrier in digits and break a 13.1 down a 12.9 its a 12 second car. PERIOD...

    you should be running a lot faster than that. Time for some slicks! :flag:

    Something people need to stop doing..

    Whats the problem?? My cobra ran mid 11s with slicks before I owned it. Now that i've bought it, I brought it to the track on street tires and an underpowered stock slipping clutch and ran a 12.9 @ 117. does that mean I can't say I have an 11 sec car? And that I have a 12 second car? What if...
