Mods For 1999 Cobra

Ruben · September 27th, 2007, 09:09 PM

Im new to this website. I wanted to know what would be a good upgrade for my 1999 cobra ( It has the flowmaster, hypertech Programmer and some radials tires for the stock rims in the back). I want to make it at least 12s or would it be better if i saved to get a supercharger.(does anyone know a good shop in nevada)

There are lots of things you could do, but a Supercharger will definatly get you there the fastest.

Heres some ideas though:

Gears
Shifter kit
Mid-pipe
Headers
Cai
UDP's
Heads
Cams
Nos

just to get into the high 12's is not hard. I am in the 12's with gears, a tons of suspensionw work, jlt intake, slicks, full exhaust, and a pro 5.0 shifter. With a blower you will not problem getting into the 11's

Weems is right do not fear the gear!

99blkcobra · November 15th, 2007, 10:20 AM

wouldnt my car price drop because im taking the cobra engine out?

Not if you're putting a stronger engine in with fewer miles. To someone who doesn't know the difference between forged internals and not it might, but then you just explain to them that it is a stronger, more durable engine. Of course KBB or a dealership might see it completely different, but it makes sense to me that the value would go up if you put something better in it. And if the dealership does offer you less then screw them and sell it on your own. You won't have a hard time finding someone to buy a Cobra with a beefed up engine.

Mach Boy · November 15th, 2007, 02:14 PM

Oh and to the OP, Gears all the way with a tune.

SWEET2KSTANG · November 15th, 2007, 02:37 PM

how deep in the 12.s you want? gears, cai, header back is good for 12.8 maybe lower depending on driver.

99blkcobra · November 15th, 2007, 06:03 PM

the mach 1 has bigger gears forge internal(standard) solid axle which cobra doesnt have and a mach 1 wont leave the cobra just be a lit bit faster.

no, maunal machs have just a forged crank in the manuals. the rods and pistons are still powdered and hyper.
