Stock exhaust is long gone on mine. Long tubes, off road x pipe and muffler deletes. Sounds like a straight pipe 4V car, mellow while you're cruising and loud as hell when you get on it.

What kind of power are you making with that setup?

Screw the power. I want to know what times he is running. Cause I have a similar setup but I have mufflers.

Lol. Thats a valid question i suppose. I dont care about et's anymore which why i asked the way i did.

If you know times then you have a better estimate on the power you are making.

402 at the wheels, currently still running the canned VMP tune. Intake and custom tune will happen later this week, will post results when Gearheads is done.

Haven't been back to the track yet, but with muffler deletes and the same canned VMP tune, running through the stock air box and papaer filter, using 275/60 DR's, I ran 12.107 at 115 at MIR last October.

Generally speaking this is true, but plugging my numbers in (12.107, 115 mph, 3755 pounds race weight), the calculator showed that I was making 436 hp. In reality, the number was more like 360 in the baseline dyno run last week.

More so MPH but yes I agree. Race track numbers > dyno

Nice looking car....I made the mistake of stopping by Grapevine Ford this afternoon to check out the grey base GT I didn't like the front/rear in the pictures I saw but looks great in person.

Will pick up if these drop down below 25k like the 11/12s did eventually

Im still on the fence with both of those. The canned tunes seem to be hit or miss but then again so are shop tunes. And there is a lot of peopke who think the cai's arent worth the money on these cars and have very little gains with them.

Congrats on the car, but I have to admit, I'm still in love with the 05-09 bodystyle.When this motor blows in my 07 in 5 years or so, I plan on dropping a 5.0 in it. Then Ill have the best of both world in my opinion.

I'm doing mine mostly for looks, but hopefully will get some gains out of it. I have to admit it was cool to lift the front wheels and then open the hood for everyone who wanted to see the engine, only to see a bone stock 5.0 air box and paper filter.

The new head and tail lights look awesome! Thanks Josh and Skip.

I love the looks of the new 13's! I hope to have a green one in a few years.

[A_A_G]

I agree. Now that the 5.0 is out the terminator seems very dated to me now. Not only in looks but performance and refinement as well. The 5.0's are just better all around cars as they should being 7-8 years newer.

The only thing that looks dated on the Cobra is the interior. You know when you see a Cobra vs guessing if that new Mustang is a v6 or GT coming towards you.

The performance on a Cobra is not dated by any means considering full bolt ons and a pulley swap make 540-550ish rwhp.

You have a case for the 1979 suspension though lol. I love both cars but the Cobra is still a beast 10 years later and has my respect.

A pullied car will not make 540-550rw. Your typical pulley cars make 440-480ish depending on the setup. My car with a full race port with a 2.76 and a 4lb lower spinning the shit out of it made 520rw. It might have hit 540rw with a set of longtubes, but to say a pulley car will make that power is a real stretch of the truth. lol.
