New here and just pick up a '01 Cobra Convertible. Don't know much about these cars other than they are pretty quick. Anyway, I want to make her run a little quicker and handle a little better. What are the best bang for the buck mods that you would recommend? Thanks in advance!

I also have a 01 Cobra and I just put flow master mufflers on it for the time being and then I will be lowering it next week. I also have a Mass Air Meter that will be on soon.

Main thing is lower it... 4X4 is not the way to go!!

Good luck with the car

Click to expand...

Gears are a good "bang for your buck" mod on these cars. I'd recommend a minimum of 4.10 or higher. You will notice these more than you will with stuff like U/D pulleys, CAI's, exhaust, etc. Those are also very good mods as well.

For the handling I'd get at least some subframe connectors welded in, helps a lot.

On my '01 that I traded in I had all the mods I mentioned & more. The car felt great.
