Well I’m thinking of getting a 03 cobra when I get back in September of 07. I just wanted to know some things about them. What are some pros and cons of the cobra? I was thinking about also get a 2.8 kenne bell and a better fuel and intercooler. I was hoping of doing this and getting in the 11’s and having a nice daily driver. I’m going to use mega squirt for the computer set up. Just wanting to know what numbers I can make with this set up and 20 to 30 psi of boost. Any help. Thanks

i dont know what you'll be makein with those but that car is FUCKING BAD ASS

20-30 psi are gonna require some internal engine mods. IMO the screw type blowers build boost quick but put off too much heat. don't get me wrong i love the cobras but i just like starting with a GT and adding what i want, kinduva "blank canvas". if i had it to do all over again i would go with a turbo setup. and the IRS are upgradeable to handle that kind of pwr but solid axles are better for drag racing and easier to upgrade.

just my 2 cents

Yea I know about the internal parts. I'm just thinking about the cost and power I'll get. But on the other hand. I was thinking about puting that money in my 93, and making a 93 cobra clone(built to the teeth). If I put that money in my 93 I think I could have a badass car.

oh hell yeah! turbo that biotch out with a 347 and you'd be in the 9's fosho.

oh btw stay safe and thank you.

with the 03 cobra you woundt need to do the internals. they come with forged stuff from the factory so.......... really no need. i dont know why youd need to do the mega squirt stuff either. the stick computer will be able to tune anything youll ever throw at it

I don't like stock.


By the way I love the sig. I almost pissed my shorts... I'm making that in to a shirt.

[Drgnracin72]

why spen a couple grand fixing it when its fine stock. there are people running over 800-900 rwho on a stock bottem end. and why change form the stock computer whens its just gonna be much more expnsive and harder to tune and its not going to do a damn thing for you, but cuase a lotta problems. i just dont understand why youd spend the money if the stock computer will do more than you ro i will ever need to do.

u wouldn't want to run 20-30 psi on a daily driver, the 03-04 cobra engines are extremely strong but that much psi would be too risky if used as a daily driver also

just get a smaller pulley for the blower and run 12-15 psi, Ive heard several times that that much psi is really safe for a daily driver terminator

I highly recommend getting a 03-04 cobra, I love mine

I think this might be an old topic cuz it was at the bottom of the page in related topics, oh well, hopefully the starter will still see it

At least now I know I'm not the only one around here that brings threads back from the dead. LOL
