    Need some work done near Chicago...

    For performance / mustang specific work I always go to Clayton Racing. Ask for Corey. The guys there are great. It's a family owned shop. They build engines, custom subframes, rollcages, and do great tuning. They won't overcharge you either. It's in Elburn which is the closest performance shop...

Weekend of June 4th it will be open to friends and friends of friends ( all of you fellow mustang owners are included) to run 1/4 miles all day long no charge to anyone...

    2000 Cobra R Exhaust Tips and Dimensions

    If it fits an 01 it should fit an 03-04. So the Borla system would work fine. CobraSusie, could you measure the oval width of the tip and the height top to bottom? I would be curious to know what the exact dimensions are. Also ground clearance has to be like 4 inches at the most. Thanks...

    2000 Cobra R Exhaust Tips and Dimensions

    Haven't seen any actual numbers on the steeda kit: http://www.steeda.com/store/-catalog/sideexhaust.htm I've heard it on my neighbors 98 cobra and it sounded pretty nice. Looks nice and clean too. Sean

    2000 Cobra R Exhaust Tips and Dimensions

    That pic you're linking to is actually a concept. The oem exhaust tips are pictured here: http://www.mustangworld.com/ourpics/News/mwcobraR/cobramw16.JPG And if I'm not mistaken it is 2.5" pipe flattened to an oval for clearance. If you're looking for a louder more aggresive sound, I...

    '03 Cobra -- Need break pad advice

    I upgraded to EBC pads when I replaced my rotors and have been very impressed. They definately have more initial bite than stock with almost no fade. Problem is I upgraded to slotted/drilled rotors as well so I can't say for certain how much is pad and how much is rotor. Noisy for the first...

    SLP Exhaust for my 01 Cobra

    Listen to the sound clips and decide for yourself. SLP makes a great exhaust but so do 5 or 6 different other companies. It's all about how loud/surpressed/aggressive you want it to sound. I'll post some custom 2.5" straight pipe exhaust clips on a 2001 for you to hear tommorow. I've also heard...
