I'm definately with you on that one. I'm glad that I waited to get an '04 Cobra.
I haven't heard this, but I hope it's not true. It will kill the image that SVT has always been known for, and the main reason my last three vehicles were SVT's: exclusivity
:damnit: That sux. I guess "whatnot" must not have included nuetral. ;) I bet it scared the hell out of your stepson. :eek: It's really not that bad (looking at the pics) though. A lot of it should buff out.
In general, the benefits of the increase in airflow will be more than the loss due to hot air. The amount of hot air drawn into the engine will be minimal, though, while the car is moving since most of it will be removed from the engine compartment.
N/A all the way. Although modding a factory S/C motor may be cheaper, but you can only go so far before you will have to upgrade the factory blower anyway. I like the option of being able to add a blower. I think Ford has taken the easy (cheap) way out by throwing a blower on anything they want...

I think there could have been a better choice than Flowmasters as well.I just don't like the sound of them.

Your point is why "most people" buy V6's instead of GT's. My intension is not to have a collectible, but to have something that is more exclusive. When (or if) the next Cobras are available, I'll probably get one...
By the end of next year there will probably be a few hundred thousand 05/06 Mustangs on the road and they'll be just another Mustang compared to the ~6000 04 Cobras.
Looks like someone threw up the red flag. There are only three bidders now and the bid is up to just over 2k (OVER MSRP OF...
Congrats, Aibal. The Lightnings are definately some awesome trucks. You will be surprised how easy it is to get into the 12's.
I just traded 2001 in a few days ago on a '04 Cobra, but I enjoyed every minute I was in the Lightning.
I did it on my '98 Cobra and noticed a few tenths gain at the track. I never had a chance to dyno it so I don't know the difference it made in horsepower. It did make the car run very rich though.
On mine, I left the hole that the sensor element goes through and cut out the rest of the...
