A Bassani Exhaust sounds the best on a Cobra IMO.

Problem #1 - With a 40 dollar upgrade they'll smoke any stock Viper right off the track in the quarter mile. [img]/images/graemlins/cry.gif[/img]

Great Car for the money. Like you said, chip, underdrive pulleys, etc. One Badd MF'er. Smokes a lot of the rivals. Check out, but I remember a problem in the begining, they had to shutdown production, seems like heads, anyway SVT, will anwser your questions. Good Luck.

Re: 03 Mustang Cobra
they will have no problem putting down 450ish RWHP reliably. Cheap to mod and kind of a sleeper.

You
LOVE them??? We are HUGE vette fans, they make great daily drivers, and the chicks that drive them are usually HOT! Although, I have heard that whoever did

You can't tell the difference from the Cobra to a cheap ass 6 banger...Mustangs need a major appearance overhaul.

Get a
black one, vert, and silver stripe it ...Then throw another $3K at it in mods and you'll be sucking the paint off Z06's all day long...On slicks, I've seen these run 11.90's all day long, with very few mods...It is rare you hear of a fairly stock Z06 running high 11's...

This is true and fit and finish isn't that spectacular, but it is just a Mustang.
That said, I'd own one. Great performance for the dollar if you're really looking for a new car.
Personally, I can't really justify the cost. Still around $30K. I'd rather pick up a used LS1 F-body for low-teens $$ and throw some mods on it instead. Heck, I've seen bolt-on modded C5 hardtops for low $20's. Nice deal too.
