Hey guys,
well first off..i just subscribed to this forum so im now a memebr of a community of mustang lovers.. (what a perfect place!)
secondly, lets get down to business:
I bought the car a year ago, drove it for the summer, got use to it, fell in love with it, and then put it away for the winter, and well summer is back around.. so this is my question:
I bought brand new ruff racing 18 inch chrome rims, i also bought brmbo rotors and ford racing calipers and pads, because those kinda broke, and i couldnt afford the whole brembo or baer brake kit, so i compromised, but my engine is stock, and im dieing to get some power! Thats the advice i wanna get from you guys, where i should go. I know its a realy vague question, but basically im asking if you were given a sotck 98 cobra to play with, what would u do (with a very limited budget) i have been looking around for superchargers and turbos for next summer, but not only can i not decide whether to get a supercharger or a turbo, but i dont even know where to start.. like would 4.11's be smart if i turbo or supercharge later? Anyways, before i ramble on with thousands of questions, id leave you guys with that.. its already a vaque enuff question as it is.. THANKS ALOT GUYS!!!!!!!!!
IM LOOKING FORWARD TO THE ADVICE!

I have heard from people on this forum that say if you are going to supercharge go no higher than 3.73 4.10's may be pushing it with a blower or turbo.

4.10's and Exhaust are good mods for the DOHC engine. Get an offroad midpipe and catback and maybe a shifter or intake and then go for gears. You should be close to low 13's with those mods. Have fun modding

a midpipe, weld in mufflers, 4.30 gears, and a tune will make that car a whole different animal
