How much power you want to make? SQR has been trying to get someone to do a F-1 kit on one of those for a while but none of his customers are brave enough If you need 800+rwhp give Daniel a call. He is an SCT dealer and has all of their software up to the 06 models.

www.simplequickracing.com

Ditch the IRS, it can't handle much more power than stock. An old 8.8 is pretty much a bolt in and lots of people more road race inclined would love to swap out. Throw in a C4 with a transbrake and the F-1 blower and you'll be running 9.5s in no time.

Cobra's are slow.

But if you need stuff, can't go wrong with amazon racing for tunes or lethal performance for parts.

well svtperformance.com is a great tech forum and real active.


i would suggest just saving your money and buying a whipple or kb or procharger(any kit)... instead of just buying all the boltons unless 470 (avg horsepower w/ ALL boltons)... where as the blowers will put you over 600,700 rwhp

using the blower that comes with the car, people have been getting well over 500rwhp on a regular basis. a lot cheaper also than dropping 3k plus on a KB.

can't beat the whine on the KB 2.2 though

I'm looking for 750rwhp with my ported blower...with nitrous of course!

If you want real/good tech. go to www.modularfords.com

Strictly performance in texas has consistantly turned out some of the most badass 03/4 cobras there are.

Read up on Jim Bell's experience with those cars, pretty darn informative.

Or if you want to see them all: http://www.kennebell.net/techinfo/techinfo-ford.htm

I'd still just buy an F-1A kit and be happy with 700+rwhp.
