    exhaust on 2004 cobra

    well im trading in my GT tomorrow on a 2004 cobra w/ 5k miles on it. I want to change the exhaust first. I was thinking about the SLP x pipe and flowmasters. Would this sound good? Or should I think about something else. Also should I get new mufflers welded in or should I get a cat back kit...

    Called Firestone for an alignment...

    I bet he does. I have the same springs. I took it to get aligned and it is adjusted as far as it will go with the stock adjusters. Its not all that far off...but its still too much negative camber.I wore out a set of new front tires...found out the hard way. The tread will wear really bad on...

    Any one close to Pittsburgh with X pipe and flowmasters.

    I am considering getting an SLP x pipe, but I want to hear one in person first. One with flowmasters...well any combo actually. I just dont want to spend all that money if It doesnt sound great.

    PA inspection/emissions suck

    Yeah good question. I guess as long as the chip doesnt throw a code. I didnt realize that some counties still do a sniff test. I live in Allegheny county, we just have a visual and code check. I sorta know a couple guys that work for a dealer and they are not willing to ignore the visual...

    PA inspection/emissions suck

    Well im not getting mine "sniffed". In PA they dont hook anything up to the exhaust on '96 and newer vehicles. They just plug a computer into the OBD II sensor and see if there are any codes that come up. If they actually tested the exhaust I would be ok....but now they dont do that on newer...

    PA inspection/emissions suck

    well I have mil eliminators for my o/r H pipe...but I put the stock H pipe on and took the mils off. The only reason I diconnected the battery is because I didnt want to short out the starter again with the metal exhaust gasket or the wrench. I talked to a few people and they said new cars...

    PA inspection/emissions suck

    I have the Mac O/R H pipe on my car, so needless to say I have to switch it when I get it inspected...cause It wont pass the visual without the cats. So I spent all morning crawling around on my garage floor switching the midpipe. I disconnected the battery, cause I touched the starter with...

    very confused about midpipes...

    Do you guys think the SLP x-pipe would sound good with the flowmaster american thunder cat back, thats what I have now. I would be willing to pay the big bucks for this just so i can switch the cats out easily for emission testing. That is such a good idea.

    starter?

    Drove my car to golf course....then after 18 tried to start it. It made a noise...maybe selonoid...or something but didnt turn over. So I have my buddy push me a little, then I turn the key again.. this time the starter turns the car over and it starts. But now the starter doesnt stop...

    2001 to 1997 Brake swap

    I am going to upgrade my brakes to the cobra 13" kit. My friend wants to buy my stock calipers. He has a 97 that only has a 1 piston caliper. He wants my stock 2 piston calipers. Is this a direct swap...or does he need to change anything, like the proportioning valve? And if so, how hard is...

    Attention PA Residents....

    I think its easier to pass in PA now with the new inspection. They dont test your exhaust gasses anymore. All they do is hook into your OBD II senser and see if anything is not right. So if you have the MIL eliminaters then you should be fine. Well they will see that there are no cats so you...

    How many people didn't have problems with their Tremec 3650?

    40 K miles, No problems whatsoever. It is a bit bulky feeling in parking lots and at really low speeds...but I dont drive at low speeds too often :)

    Cobra Brake Upgrade

    First off. Do I need to use different brake hoses and banjo bolts? or will the stock ones work. Also do I need some sort of mounting bracket that the Gefracing calipers do not come with??? Second, Is it true about the cross drilled rotors cracking as a result of daily driving? On Gefracing...
