Default Dying for my car back.

My cobra is gettin all the parts in my sig installed at X2C motorsports right now. It was basically stock when it went in so it should be a huge difference! Man I cannot wait!!! I get it on thursday, but the suspense is killing me!

Looks like a solid freakin' combo, Sky. Those 4v motors are something. When will you be able to get some times? Are you running slicks, ET streets or drag radials?

Keep us posted.

BTW - I just caugt the video of you vs. the supercharged Bullitt - pretty cool.

Take it easy,

If it were me, I would go with the slicks. I've got 275/55/15 BFG DR's on mine and still struggle with getting decent 60' times.

Yeah, the DR's are great on the street and for general cruising - no doubt about it.

Will 315's fit under your Cobra? 315's are HUGE! (I'm just jealous!)

Your car should go pretty good with those mods, exhaust especially. I'm debating on changing the exhaust on my Mach but I don't know if I have the heart to. I'm leaning on leaving this car completely stock. I love driving this car.

The magnaflows are louder than I expected, but it still nice and quiet at idle.

Im going to get a custom chip burnt for the car here soon on the dyno.
