    My 97 Cobra ran 13.4 at San Antonio Raceway with just 4.56's, K&N Filter, OR H-Pipe, MAC catback, and MIL Eliminators. It's been years ago so I don't recall the mph, but my buddy in his Mach 1 was running exactly the same times so I can remember that part.

    Lazy mans piss is perfect for hangovers.

    4.56's are too much by the way. There's a difference between not fearing the gear and overboard. You're gonna be in 5th gear by 30mph. 4.56's are what you stick in an automatic car with a stall for the track. You'll feel like you've gained a lot of power but you haven't, and you'll be more prone to missing shifts.

    I was just giving you hell man. I think it would be pretty cool, and like said 2800 isn't really that bad. I cruise at 3000rpm on the highway sometimes and im cool with it.

    70 miles to school. 140 mile round trip a day, 4 times a week.

    Just take ALOT of TLC.

    Cobraman, don't fear the gear in these cars! 96-98 cobras are slugs down low so we need a bigger gear to get us in our powerband faster. Go to SVT performance dot com (sn95 cobra sub forum) and read the gear testimonials from all the guys that actually own a car like yours.

    You dont need imrc deletes for a gear swap. Though it's best to get rid of them eventually because they're major pieces of shit. They like to gunk up alot. You WILL need a tune if you do it though.

    If you got any questions feel free to ask, I've learned ALOOOOOOT about B-headed cobras the last few years.

    My daily commute of 20 miles each way would be fun with 4-5-6's !

    I'm still debating doing the 4.10's in my car, and I have a 6 speed !!

    Can't wait to see what it does with the steeper gears !

Does it somehow make you tired to sit in the seat and turn 2800 rpms? Does it make you feel uncomfortable? Mines smooth as glass and has zero issues except that it will peel your face off from a stand still.

    As I have said before. The world needs more steve's. I'm gonna put these in, and if I don't like them then I'll step down. To me it's better than getting 4:30's and thinking how awesome the car would be with .56's.
