get a supercharger so you can keep the cobra bumper. otherr than that its a nice lookin stang. myfriend is a huge ford guy and thats the first thing he jumped on... no SC no cobra. ill agree but seems like you have some nice plans for it.

It looks good, but I persoanlly HATE it when people put the "cobra" bumper on their normal mustang. Atleast get the wheels and the supercharger to go with your cobra package.

yeah wel have you ever seen what happens a year after you have it filed if you live in ohio???? it cracks... and its silver so no matter what you do, in person you can still see the outline.. the people at the shop are mostly mustang guys and heavily advised against having it filled in.... if the bumper were available in urethane with out the lettering, it would be on the car...

i actually dont get any flak from real cobra owners on it at all.... i didnt put cobra badges on it, so its all good.... as far as getting cobra wheels--- why?. lol...


my disclaimer about the charger- i wasn't going to put the bumper on till i did have the car boosted or powerplan swapped... but i happened to not put my ebrake and it rolled into a garage... i wasn't gonna spend that much money to have it look the same.. lol...

in the mustang crowd, its okay as long as you dont put badges on it that are false advertising, its okay..

i figured i would get some static from it... but i understand....

I suppose if you don't get any @!#$ from the cobra owners that is all that maters. I guess its just a pet peeve of mine. About the supercharger, I don't think I would go with that ... I changed my mind and id kinda rather see it have a turbo than a charger. As long as you are happy with it, I can't complain Another thing came to mind, you might want to look at getting the svt lightning seats out of a totaled lightning. That would be pretty sweet and defiantly original.

i have racing seats i am very happy with.. if i change them it will only be for the Grey suede inserts with charcoal leather racing seats that were special order only... cost about 2 grand and worth every penny...

as far as boost goes-- a kenne bell set up will satisfy my greatly.. if i wanted to get 600-1000 hpr i would do a twin turbo set up, but then i need a built trans, entirely new suspension, bullet proof rear end... for extra cost i could have a v12 bmw.. i don't care to go THAT balls out...

if i took anything out of a lightning, it would be the 5.4 liter with s/c. screw the seats.

You might as well get the whole cobra motor instead of just boosting the one you have..\

I was wondering how would be in low low 13s as well. I have seen non s/c cobras w/ every bolt on and cams run low low 13s.

O well, good luck w/ it.

And cams? Then they suck at driving. They should be solid in the 12's.

For josh though.... I'd guess mid 13's. Depends alot on the tires and his driving ability.

Maybe Im just pissed, pissed that my freinds are spineless, What else would you
call abandoment some night, when you're in a fight, and they could make things right?
Spineless. I miss some of my old friends, the ones who you could count on,
bet a huge amount on, the fact that they'd always have your back... Its like a kick in
the sack, just knowing, you've got nothing to fall back on. @!#$ this, Im done.

Their traps seemed to match so I doubt it was the driver. Track maybe.

Yeah.... That's about it... Its all about the driver. A lot also has to do with the rear gears too... Most people go with 3.73s out back too. If you have a highly modified cobra (boost or no) and you are still in the 13s, you need to find someone else to drive. Lol. I know some drivers with less I have now but run 13.6 or 13.7 just cause they are amazing drivers. The problem with cobras is that it really never ment a huge difference until 2003. Lol.

And a lot of people still are so jaded they are unaware that an 04 gt stock will beat a 99 cobra stock...... There's a lot more that goes into a car that makes things different..... As far as the 03 04 powertrain swap instead of just boosting my motor---- cost and time. I won't be paying 5 grand for my blower. Ill be paying no more than 2 grand and will eat a stock terminator alive. And will have cost A LOT less. (But I won't have the sweet IRS for cornering) t


-- there is a chance I may decide to buy a 5.4 liter or a cobra motor at some point, but it won't be going into this pig. Its going into something that will weigh a thousand pounds less.....muh ha ha ha ha ha ha.....


At the end of the day, I started out with more than what most people end up with once they finish their cars. And probably will end up spending about the same.. Lol...

No hate.
I doubt you will hit low 13s the first time at the track tho.
Last night I saw another new mustang, this time w/ a procharger. He only ran once but still, a 14.6. Fastest s/c 05+ stang I have seen run ran a 13.1 when he raced me and my time was still better w/ basic bolt ons.

Acording to this car and driver car and driver in the standing 1/4mile they run 13.8 seconds at 102mph. So, I would assume that it very well could run low 13s. It depends on the altitude at the track though.
