    Has anyone upgraded their brakes

    Ya man the dealership says that the Brembo job on 2 tires will be around 400dollars including machineing the rotors. That is insane, has anyone ever upgraded those pads, I know they are pretty quality and they really don't need it. Can I get these pads at an Autozone? Jimbo Jones

    oil change

    My only hard evidence are the work orders I have back-logged. If you would like to see them then leave me your address or fax # and I'll fax the staments from my office. Otherwise its up to you to drive as many mile as I did and prove me wrong.

    New Tires, Goodyear or ?

    If you are a good driver NEVER CHANGE the brand of your tire. The best tires ever for the cobra are the goodyears they come with, but I must admit I never have used any other type of goodyears. On the other hand I have tried the rest. On my older cobra I used those BFgoodrichs and they would...

    Wondering if K&N is worth it?

    I heard from the SVT dealership here in las vegas that the K and N air filter is not good for the cobra because the air filter has oil particles that seep into the threads of the air sensors in the cobra. These sensors for the air flow on the new stock air intake systems will dry up after oil...
