    De-Tuning Voertech SC Cobra '98

    Thank you all for your comments/posts. As of right now, I have managed to procure another S-trim blower for the car. With all that's been done to get it there, it should be much more simple to just bolt on the new unit and take it to MPH and get her re-tuned. This will be my third blower unit...

    98 Cobra Vortech Kit Uninstall

    Obviously going back to N/A on my 98 which was bought with the kit on it and no spare parts/info whatsoever, I'm just trying to get a little feedback. Here is what has been acquired and I need to know that I'm not going to be missing anything. There are several bolts that hold on the...

    De-Tuning Voertech SC Cobra '98

    I'm looking to restore my 1998 Cobra to a N/A setup by removing the Vortech SC kit off of the motor. Since I bought the car with the kit installed, I will need parts to take it back to a N/A condition (MAF, FI's, CAI, Original pulleys?, Belt, etc.). I was wondering if anyone could point me to...

    96 Cobra Problems

    Try cleaning (or replacing your IAC - Idle Air Controller) valve. It's connected to the top of the manifold.

    Buying a 96-98 Cobra

    Look under the car, especially around the rear wheelwells and the sides of the gas tank area and look for flakes of rubber which would indicate burnouts. While under there, inspect the undercarriage. Look at the brakes and see if they're worn out. Check out the clutch and also have a...

    Significant HP loss

    When you ran the SeaFoam, did you suck it into motor and kill it, let it stand about 15-20 minutes or so then restart? I did this to my '98 last week, although there was no noticeable smoke when the stuff was going in (through PCV hose), it sure smoked like a chimney after I got it started some...

    need help with exhust car sounds like s..t

    Consider getting the O/R H-Pipe - Price: <$200 and running the Flows. I'm running BBK LT Headers into H-pipe/Flows but mine has the High Flow Cats on it and it's pretty intense and sick! If you don't like that combo, then you can pull the H, put on the X and spend $400-$600 on another catback...

    which short shifter should i get ?

    I got one and installed it on my GT, it was super sweet. I currently have a Pro 5.0 in my Snake (Came installed when I bought the car - has T-56 6 Speed) and I hate it. Considering the 6 Speed MGW shifter, just need to hear from those that have acquired this particular unit because if it is as...

    what does a stock 98 cobra run

    Yeah, but throw some 4.10s, a decent exhaust upgrade with a good tune and she should put up low 13's-high 12's N/A! You won't get that out of a stock GT (Including the '03's) Plus the fact that it's an SVT Cobra which will surely hold its' resale value more than the GTs ever will.

    Shelby or 03 cobra?

    I'll just keep my '98! :rlaugh: Bring those Shelbys on, I might just have a little 'surprise' waiting for them!

    Ok, what's next?

    I would definitely do the clutch/pressure plate at the same time as the T-56. I would think that they may differ somewhat although I don't have those particular details.

    MGW shfiter questions

    I have an MGW in my GT and a Pro 5.0 in my Cobra (T-56). The MGW is smoooooooth as hell. Shifts are crisp and effortless and now I can put a drink in my front cupholder without getting it knocked out in the 2nd and 4th gear shifts. The Pro 5.0 is a little better than stock, but it does not...

    Ok, what's next?

    Missing the fact that your aluminum driveshaft will have to be modified (shortened) to connect to that T-56!

    Difference between 97 Cobra and GT?

    Get the COBRA! $7k is pretty darned good, even for a '97 w/115k miles.

    how ya get my SVT cert... ?

    They will. Just call and give them your VIN# and they'll give you the number of the build out of the number of units built for that year. I paid for $40 bucks for the paperwork and I wasn't very impressed at all.

    Just got 354 miles on my tank!

    Did a trip to Florida last weekend in my GT. Got 382 miles but had to stop shy of 400 because next gas station was like 20 miles up the road! When I filled up, I determined I still had nearly two gallons in the tank! Funny thing about it, I ran a good portion of the trip with the top down.
