03 Cobra goes 11.68@119

1BAD89 · 08-20-2002, 05:22 PM

In the latest MM&FF, with lightning pulley and ET streets only!

Granted it was showing 14.5psi at WOT. Needless to say, I'm impressed. I'm going to try and get one.

HOLY CRAP! I wish I could afford one of those... imagin that pully, k&n, exhaust, take the spare, jack, backseats out, with drag radials that thing would FREAKING FLY!! Wow leave it to Ford to finally build a DEMON!

Muhahahaha!

Stang_Crazy · 08-20-2002, 08:29 PM

I can't believe that the car trapped 119 mph with just a smaller pulley and ET streets!! That's pretty sick. Oh yea, it also has that warranty thing too

i wish i could have that car to spank the living crap out of all the ricer panzies in my area,but i cant afford it so i guess i will have to do it with my mustang

RBatson · 08-20-2002, 11:01 PM

MAN!! My dad told me, last December, to put in an order for one! I just bought a new truck, quit rubbing it in!!

Seriously, you may want to check this place out http://www.efordcommercialsales.com/

I was there last month and the savings seem pretty good. Heck, they were the only Ford dealership I ran across in central Fla that didn't have the "adjusted market value" crap added. They actually were selling the lightning and HD pickups for less than MSRP(believe it or not). I guarantee they will do the same with the cobra.... Orlando... big airport.. cheap flights......

Jimmy V maded 434 at the rear wheels with in his 03 with just a cold air kit, catback, and a chip. Imagine what a pulley change would do!!

Yeah, I saw that article. Very impressive.

I was defending the new 03 Cobra in some other posts a while back but didn't really get anywhere with it.

Basically, I was saying that some sticky tires, smaller pulley, free flowing exhaust and this thing is going to REALLY going to haul.

Nice to see that guys are getting some time to get used to their new cars and figuring out what works.

Hey Nick, I've been doing pretty good, how bout you? If I could find an 03 Cobra for $33,000, I'd do it.

Dark_5.0 · 08-21-2002, 11:27 AM

Why not just supercharge the LS-1, I looked into buying an 03' cobra when I bought my 01' and they wanted 39,000.00.

With all of the problems the new cobras have been having I dont know if the 36,000 mile warranty is enough to give me the warm fuzzy feeling.

I would wait until the next cobras come out and then get one, by then they will have all the bugs worked out.

MidNiteBlu 5.0 · 08-21-2002, 03:02 PM

Hehe thatd be cool man. Ive been doing pretty good. The shops done

Should get pics sometime soon.

Later,

friend got a 03 it had 4.5 miles on when he took it to the shop and had longtube headers, off road h pipe and a shifter put on it it dynoed 443 to rear tires and ran a 12.2 @119 with a 2.3 ? 60 foot on stock tires. he put a cat back on it and pulleys and i think he got the chip for it now but has not been back to the track of dyno again. he is thinks he will be around 500 hp on next pull
