Don't worry about it unless it gets bad. My wife's 01 cobra has done it since we bought at 5k miles. By the way, I am a new 08 owner also. Picked up my vista blue this past week and love it!

excellent thread. This needs to be 'stickied'. I now have an axle back picked out for my GT I bought this week

I understand what you are saying and I agree to an extent. While reducing rotational mass (flywheels, driveshaft, etc) does not improve rwhp readings it does improve the speed your engine will rev under load. I didn't mean for my post to make it sound like there was no benefit from an...

While I do not have my own personal car to experiment with (S197 that is), it is my understanding that exhaust mods do not do anything for these cars until you get in the poweradder (boost) territory. Are there any documented gains for udp's on these cars. I know from experience that there...

I have installed two sets of Steeda sports and the adjustable panhard bar was not needed. They lowered the rear right at 1.5" and kicked the rear over around an 1/8 of an inch which was not noticeable when standing behind it

Why not get a Steeda tune since you are going with there CAI?

I have installed Steeda Sport Springs on 2 different S197's and both guys liked them. Both of them also had MAC flowpaths with 4"tips installed as well. Although it sounds big the 4" tip looks perfect on the rear of the new mustangs

just a note. Aluminum d/s and wheel size is going to have no effect on hp readings. Nice #'s to the the thread starter.

Friend of mine still runs his swaybar

Did you take them loose from the head like I mentioned? By the way, if there is not enough gap between the valve cover and altenator for the lines to at least sit in then the covers will not work.

2.95 tranny with 4.10 in the rear in my car also but I wouldn't do the 4.10's unless your motor makes good power in the upper rpm range

One more thing, If you are going to replace the intake gaskets again to be sure, try running the gaskets that are suppose to be on a 93 cobra. 1250's and 1262's are actualy to big.

n/m. I re-read the thread and noticed that you actually found coolant in your oil

Sounds like to me that there maybe a vacuum leak somewhere

I am not being a smartass when I ask this... Are you installing the head gaskets the correct way? Coolant holes only go to the front on both sides. In other words one gasket will 'appear' to be upside down when installing compared to the other side. Also what are you setting base timing to?

Does the power loss or stutter get worse as you get higher in the rpm? Have you verified that it isn't fuel system related?

What is the motor combo? What head gaskets and intake gaskets are you using? Are you just driving when the motor heats up or are you in the throttle a little bit?

I am sure that setup will work fine but one day when your budget allows, you need to try out the AFM PP and PMAS 80mm combo. It will maximize your power

You missed some key points in the thread. The driviablity issues being discussed in this thread is due to a open conical filter IN the engine compartment, not in the fenderwell. Your fenderwell setup is why you are not having any problems
