JM what do you do for a living? That's a nice mustang. A big KB or Whipple with all the normal boltons plus a 150 shot will be ridiculously fun!

I ordered Lowering springs,billetflow 4 pulley idlers,cobra emblem for the front,short antenna and UPR caster cambers. I dont like the caster's that are on it. Need to check the tune with the 2.8 pulley and make sure the car is safe.

Power plant manager. Im not rich, just have alot of things paid off and Im able to pull this off. Looks Like I am going to get a whipple.

No spray. 600+ on boost is plenty for a Sunday driver that will never see rain

I bought this one in the mid 26k on him. And paid in the mid 20's for it. Theres some good deals right now on autotrader. I bought this one from the dealership. My good buddie is the sales manager and I pretty much got the car for 1k over what they paid. But as I was doing the paper work 2 people tried to snag it. It wasnt on the lot more than 2 hrs before I bought it

They went over the whole car for me, Changed all the fuilds and it runs pretty well. I dont not like the clunk in the rear with the IRS.

Like I said. The clunk in the rear sucks. Everything is tight(Allready had it on the lift), But since Ive worked on a fair share of IRS's on the vettes. I am pretty sure I can make this one work well since Im about to take the red pill before I make any more power with this car. Also will change out the clutch and replace it and a 26 spline input shaft with the proper shim kit

Not a Rookie when it comes to modding or power. I know the driveline needs attention before I start making big power.

Thanks for all the replies.

You know my buddies built a custom turbo kit for his S2000 and its runs well. He kept the vortech aftercooler and sold the headunit and bracke. Its not fully tuned yet but it really came out nice.

the rear ends are no problem at all since those cars never hook

my buddy has an '04 Cobra with a whipple and off road X-pipe and Borla exhaust, it sounds nasty as hell, it put down 595hp on a dyno jet, and with his 75 shot it put down like 650hp on the same dyno-jet. then we threw his car on my friends mustang dyno and it made 505hp lol...that ruined his ego as all mustang dynos do!!

with 315 nitto DR's the car still rips them apart rolling into 3rd! and the blowers are just instant power!

LOL I had this car sideways yesterday! Instant tire rape. My WS6 will hook on the street. This one is a pure roll racer! My buddies cobra snapped the input shaft. We replaced it with a 26 spline then we broke the half shafts. Trust me I know all the weak points allready

Im going to go with the 26 spline soon!

The Cobra's are very nice and very heavy. Leave it the way it is and enjoy it.Spend the $$ on your own car

Our shop always has a ton of Cobra's in it.They handle alot of power but they destroy alot of parts. We did build a 03 Cobra with a twin turbo.Stopped at 940rwhp on the stock longblock.

Wish I could do that bro. But the mods are ordered allready

Dont worry Im not the type that doesnt upgrade the driveline. Trust me we broke the input shaft to my buddies. So I know exactly what you are saying!

Interesting, my wifie used to be into supra's and that was something we talked alot about. Not into fords though a terminator in her hands is like giving a two year old a lifetime supply of candybars.... Though she'll go 100%.. she likes to "just take it easy and go"

Well, that was until i got my H2 and now she is all over that... what will we ever do eh?

nive ride... look the exterior looks but the gauges always get me... not a ford hater, absolutley the best looking stang, IMO, ever.. sounds great and tons of potential from factory.
