badass vid
That sure as hell sounds like an '03. That blower sounds like a "screw-type", and most people just slap a Vortech or some other kind of centrifugal blower on.





Peace,

It's def an '03... sounds just like all the other ones I've heard. Only way it's a 99-01 is if there's an 03 motor in it.

Wow...didn't know this video had gotten around so much.
I am the owner of the red SS, and the Cobra was and still is an 03. It was a race just for fun, as he knew what kind of power my car makes.

JuicedSS, what kind of power do you make on the motor alone? do you think you could take that 03 on all motor, because on the juice you slingshotted passed him. awesome race!!

It makes 415 to the wheels na.
His car makes 430 to the wheels, so mine being a little lighter, I think I would win. But it would be very close, and I for one am a big fan of blow outs.

Track time was dissapointing at best. Made 3.1 runs with this set up, 1st two I spun so badly that I had to get out of it. 3rd run was a 11.5 at 125 with a high 1.7 60 ft...banged the rev limiter going to 2nd and spun in 2nd. Last run--the dr side axle broke in the diff...game over.
With much more practice it should be deep in the 10's...but- we all know what "could of..and should of" get ya.

I hear ya...

Whatever the case, it looks (and sounds) like you've got a nice setup there. Nice work. Ford really screwed up by making the '03 Cobra so damned heavy. At 3,300lbs they would really cook.

The exhaust is truly special, not to sound over board either. A friend of mine had this idea to only use mandrel bends and created a truE dual set up with a x pipe going in to 18" bullet mufflers.



Aint it purdy? Yes, its loud.

I have to say I am quite impressed with your car. Not very often I get a chubby over a GM, but you did a good job!

I still wish you were here though, I want a piece!
