Poor quality picture of it on the dyno:




During build:



On Bogarts:








Interior (Sorry for the quality):





If someone is looking for a car to go out and run 8s with ease, while maintaining street manners and being well put together, this is the car for them. This is not your average single turbo '03 Cobra.

I don't have the time to enjoy it and I'm looking for something I can take to work and back as a commuter car in the summer.

$38k - Willing to negotiate

**Please do not comment if you do not agree with the price. I'm aware of how much this is, and I'm aware what it would take to duplicate the car. This is not for someone looking to buy an '03/'04 Cobra; this is for someone who wants an all out horsepower machine and not have to pay to build it themselves, realizing how much it would cost to take a $20k car and have it make this type of power with this quality of a build. I'm aware of the economy and the current market, I'm also aware of my personal finances and know I do not need to sell for any reason aside from moving on. I still enjoy the car when I can and will keep it if I'm not satisfied with an offer. Proven reliable power.

There is no way in hell that a ported eaton/kb/whipple would come anywhere close to 1000rwhp!

Awsome Car! Good Luck with the sale!

Great car and well worth the money. Probably has $80k into that. I always find it amusing when the haters comment on something they could never afford even in their wildest wet dreams.....

Hahahahahaha... What rock you under? Ported eaton,good luck trying to get 550 rwhp out of that shitty little blower.
Kb, cool you just got to around 700 on race gas.

Don't come in a thread and comment on something you obviously know nothing about to a person that knows what the hell they are doing. Just makes you look stupid.


Ported eaton, same power.. hahahahaha

Thanks guys! I needed a good laugh, and I'm glad I don't have to bother replying to that intelligent person.

I'm not going to defend the price, anyone who knows anything about these cars knows what it would take to put one together with as many quality parts. This is not for someone wanting 600rwhp.

It's not often you can find a clean single turbo car for sale, and I'll be shocked to find another 5.4L Single turbo '03/'04 for sale anytime soon. It's a special car and not something I will part with easily.

Oh and yes the KB blower was junk, and yes the stock Cobra motor was a ticking time bomb at a much lower HP level with the junk KB.

I've also had a 3.4L Whipple and that was no where near this power level either. Probably should have just ported the stock blower though instead of my Kenne Bell, Whipple, or this new built 5.4L Single 88mm turbo setup!

I wont even continue the bbq of the FRPP designer up top who thinks this much power and durability can come from a stock blower on a 4.6 4V Cobra.

Awesome car and I'd love to see what it could do on the black top.

love it, any trades with out cash for something more legit and unique? Problem is, car still has to be proven and tuned down the track to get all the power down. I would want to go faster with this set up and probably put a 94-98mm turbo on it and shoot for low 8's or 7's, no problem.

Beautiful car and awesome numbers...priced to sell if anyone knew how much parts for these cars are...someone needs to price built modular motors...high dollar

I've got a friend that has a very similar car only difference really is he's running twins and has true forged wheels and the color and he said he wouldn't took under 65k for his car...

Bump for your beautiful car...just wish I had the money

Thanks guys. Car definitely needs a lot of track time to get it set up correctly. Again that's my primary motivation for selling, I don't have the time to do it.

And yep, the car has a pretty silly parts list, when you think it's only priced about 10k over a stock low mileage clean car, it's a hell of a bargain for someone who wants a build this extreme. Very few single turbo cars and even fewer with 5.4L Based motors.

Nubbz, sold. She already said she's going on a date with me if I get a new car. Watch her!

Ok, but non of them have the collectable re sale and uniqueness a stage II has. And of course this car will eat them and spit them out and yes I do drive it on the street and do damage there as well. Good luck, you have a nice runner for sure!

Thanks for the offer, but I really think that's a similar setup to what I have and don't get to use. Always have loved the real G-body killers.

If you sell your car and decide you want to buy mine, let me know we can definitely work something out!
