    Why I will never again visit this tuner in Charlotte, NC

    In this area I would only deal with CPracing, and Modular Madness. I tried to talk with underground about dyno tuning and they acted like I was either stupid for wanting to do a gt to cobra swap or like it would never happen. After that I decided to find a new shop and have never looked back-

    Anyone in the Wilmington NC area?

    I graduated from UNCW, and it can be a little crazy down there. I had everything from minivans, volvo's, BMW's, and of course lots of maximas try to race me there. Lots of rice...They all like to hang out in the K-mart parking lot next to the campus. You will see them out there a lot of...

    Charlotte/Concord Mustang Shops??

    CPracing is a good shop. Also if you don't mind a little drive go up to Mooresville and Modular Madness only works with Mustangs. They do great work. They did my tune, and gears. Ask for Don.

    Roush Just wanted to show you guys my new car...

    Thanks guys...yeah getting traction is the problem of course. It has standard z-rated tires on all 4 wheels, so no traction until midway into 3rd gear. But once the tach reaches around 6,000, they break loose a little again even in 3rd. I think I need drag radials. Nittos, BFG's, or stick...

    Your 281SC looks awesome as well. Good work on the mods. I love the clean look of all the blue in the engine compartment. Saleens are great.

    Here are a few shots of my new 2001 S281. I love this thing, it turns more heads that I ever thought it would. It was built by Turbo people, one of the Spetters personal cars. It's currently making 650rwhp on pump gas. Just Click on My Garage to check it out! Thanks for taking a look...

    `98 Cobra exhaust poll long tube or shorty?

    I like the sound of an H pipe, so I went with that...both an X or H will make good power. But stick with the Long Tubes...they are a PITA to install though-

    DONT YOU HATE THE FOBRAS!

    That is the very reason I want an 03 or 04...but then again I did just spend a ton putting in a brand new cobra motor + all the bolt-ons in my GT...So it should last me a while. After talking with a few people I figure it might be best to wait and see how awesome they are going to make the new...

    DONT YOU HATE THE FOBRAS!

    Alf, how do you like the 04 cobra? I have been tossing around the idea of getting one, but can't decide if I should pick one up now or wait for the 07's

    Gear swap in a 99 Cobra

    I love my 4.10s and wish I had 4.30s...I would never consider 3.73s but if I felt like I was going to be going 80+mph all the time I might consider 3.90s.

    McLeod clutch or Centerforce

    Spec Stage 2....I love mine. Grabs like crazy, is still very easy to engage, and feels much better than stock. JMHO-- (If you get the SPEC, go get a TOB from ford.)

    DONT YOU HATE THE FOBRAS!

    I am glad for insurance purposes my VIN says its a GT. I just told my girlfriend yesterday I wished I would have started with a V6 and done the swap to it. I personally don't see anything wrong with a saleen clone, a cobra clone is kinda lame, but if someone has a car that is faster, and...

    DONT YOU HATE THE FOBRAS!

    Well no one has or probably ever will think my car is a cobra...it looks just like a stock GT on the outside...quite a sleeper--but if asked I would of course say it is a GT with a Cobra swap-- Trying to badge you car to look like a faster one is the dumbest thing I have ever heard of...

    DONT YOU HATE THE FOBRAS!

    So do you guys hate GT's with Cobra engines too?? :) On a side note the Air-King is my favorite Rolex because it doesn't scream of being a Rolex with the bubble and all the bling. Simple & Timeless.
