It depends on your intentions for the car... I'm more of a Vette fan, but there is nothing wrong with a Cobra. Drive both, thats what made up my mind.

oh believe me i know a few things about these cars as they say u have to know ur enemy very well. this would probably be the fastest production mustang ever made excluding all tuner versions of this car. i hate this car because its so easy and cheap to mod. a 200 dollar pulley will get u close to 500 rwhp maybe more, these cars are one of the greatest platforms to start with since they already have the power adder. BUT, u already have greater displacement and a lighter platform with the ZO6, sure its more expensive for parts and stuff but u would get better end results with the Z. and as for a twin screw blower kenne bell should help u there. now lets think before we say another condescending remark.

Depends what you want it for, Pick up chicks= go vette, road racing= go vette, drag racing= go vette, but if you just want a roll race weekend worrior get the cobra they have very strong bottom ends and can take a lot of power, but cobras just arent good at any thing else lol.

Ur not getting ANYWHERE NEAR 500 with just a pulley. To reach that kinda power ull need to send the blower out to stiegemeier.

dude it doesnt matter. Pulleys spin the s/c faster but it aint gonna give u a 130hp increase. One of my friends has a stiegemeier stage IV, intake, exhaust and pulley. He didnt even make 500 to the wheels.

just a rough estimate. but i have a buddy that has a black one with a pulley swap not the smallest one though, and he has like 470 with a good tune to the wheels. they are very easy to mod but i also read on a mustang forum that they are all destroying pistons cuz people r over boosting.

More like hack tuners burning down the #7 piston.

I don't care what car you own or which way you went in this poll. That is impressive.

Talking

COBRA FTW! C5 Z06's are starting to look dated because of C6 Z06's Anyway I think the 03-04 Cobra is the best looking Mustang. I'm 10000% brand loyal to GM but i would love to own one no doubt.
