    Supercharger Question

    Your car+5000 probably would get ya close to an 03 cobra :shrug: Then ya have the resale, stronger engine/trans, and a higher upper limit on the cars ability. I traded my 02 GT when I was going to S/C it Figured 14.5K(GT Trade)+5000(S/C)+1000 MISC Upgrades=20.5K and it would still be a GT...

    horsepower vs. durability / motor life

    If you are WOT and have to be in in 5th you'll probably be in the 140+ range and thats where people start to run into problems with the pistons crapping out from what i've seen (tick tick tick). I just don't see a reason really to go that fast its more fun to go from 20-120 fast then watch my...

    horsepower vs. durability / motor life

    You'd be supprised what some cobra owners think. I feel the same way that U.M. thinks pretty much in terms of the pistons and in terms of the constant romps of the engine will show some wear and tear its all a matter of time. I've only gotten my car into 5th once while at WOT and it was right...

    03/04 Cobras

    I had a problem with my T56 from the factory. (Vibration in 6th Gear) They rebuilt it twice then ended up replacing it a day before I could have given the car back. Seems like an isolated incident with the T56 though I just had a bad experience i guess....

    VR4 3000Gt????

    Aren't Eclipses Single Turbos? I highly doubt a completely stock Eclipse with only a little more boost is going to run low low 12's...You'll need a few other parts for that even if the engine/drivetrain could handle it with the stock parts...

    Just Installed Sirius into my Cobra

    I just installed the Sirius Sporters Tuner into the Snake. I had it mounted in the larger cupholder and they ran the wires under and up into the console to get to the cig lighter inside. No wires are visible and the led lights on the unit can be changed to green and will match the interior...

    My Cobra vs. z28!!!

    I respect alot of cars but something about people telling me their car will destroy mine in a race just has this chilling effect on that respect. If you think its faster prove it. Don't sit on the internet going back and fourth on what ifs. Some cars are easier to mod then others. 03...

    Looking to buy an 03 cobra... any factor recalls or defects?

    My transmission had a 6th gear vibration from the factory with 80 miles on it. It was broken down and 6th gears were replaced twice. The day before the lemon law took effect ford overnighted a new T56 in to replace mine but not before. I'm still a bit bitter about it but with 6000 miles now...
