Default Silver 03/04 Cobra Vert

Bad mph for me. About a 40 mph roll. Not slow enough for 1st, 2nd was my choice. He pulled 1/2 - 3/4 of a car on me to about 65-70 mph. Driver was a big guy, say 300 lbs, with 2 middle aged plump women. I was alone w/ 1/8 tank of gas

I did NOT hear the standard high pitched blower sound that is associated w/ 03 Cobra's. Do you think he had an aftermarket one?

No aftermarket blower. Most likely he was bone stock.

wow, even with all the weight. The stock blowers are usually loud though. I have been in the brand new lightning at it was extremely loud. The dealer told me the same thing about the cobra also.

It could of been stock but for him to pull that hard on you, with a big guy and two large heffers, lol. I don't know, I say there's possibility another blower on it. Don't they have a turbo swap available to now to replace that supercharger?

Nice death
Can you imagine how heavy that Cobra was being a vert and a 300# driver with 2 plumpys, he had to have been modded just to haul them around.

No chance there was a blower swap. Ever here a KB or a Procharged 03 Cobra? You'd know if you did. Yes, there are turbo kits available. Very few people have them. Turbos are not quiet though. It would sound like a F16. A blower swap or a turbo kit would easily make 550rwhp. That car would rape a 330rwhp car. Like I said, my bet is that it was bone stock.
