It is not a car I'd laugh at...

Plus there wasn't an 02' .. Ford skipped that year and released the 03' mid year of 02'

Thanks for the heads up, guess you learn somthin new everyday.

LMAO!

I'm sure he had a chip/tune in it as well but that sounds dead on to what others have run around here with similar mods.

to the 03/04 Cobra.

Re: Fast Cobra...

I think they should just put a blower on the new 5th gen camaro, then we wouldn't have all of these. Ifs and what abouts

The 03 Cobra has a motor that is BUILT for a blower... Not just a blower.

I saw a Chevy with 8 damn turbo's on it on the speed chanel the other day

Yeah, as long as it has 8 cylinders.

Heck, I may even help a turbo Buick owner as well.

Re: Fast Cobra...

Yep, I love my 03

I have the basic 2.80 pulley/exhaust/cai setup and went 12.01 @ 118 on the stock F1's. I finally got to try it out on a tire (et streets) Wednesday and it developed a bad stutter between shifts and I lost 3 mph. It still went 11.99 @ 115 though.
For the record, I did get my *** handed to me by LS1's 3 of my 4 runs that I made. The only pass I made that I won was against a newer CBR 600
