    Its good to be back.

    Looking for 2003/04 Lightning

    Any colour but white... I'd like it to be modded as little as possible. I'm willing to drive out to pick it up within 500 miles of me here in Boston. Outside that range, I'll have to ship it. But would want an independent review of the truck before finalizing of course. Purchase time is...

    Shop review! TFES-Performance

    Guys/Gals, Just wanted to let you know today I drove up to TFES-Performance in Brookline NH. Nice drive from Nashua, great curvey roads and the works. WHen I got there, Sean and his crew took great care of me and my Terminator while installing my new Bassani SS X-pipe. The car sounds just...

    Avoid Cobra Daytona seats...

    I've had my seats now for a little less than a year. 1.) Shoulder bolsters are already fading from black to a dark purple. 2.) The seat brackets are flaking like mad, paint chips all over the place. 3.) There is foam dust coming from the seats, not just a little, but enough to have to...

    Hell yeah F360 Spider goes down.

    Driving to golf tourney today in Natick MA. Down Rt. 93 going to Rt.9, a yellow F360 Spider pulls up next to me. Top is down an older guy is driving. Gives me the thumbs up and floors it. I'm not sure I like the sound of the F360's all that well, but it's the first Ferrari I've ever seen on...

    A thank you to Ford.

    This is a simple thank you to the SVT and Ford engineers that frequent this site. It's simple. Thanks for everything so far, and thank you for pushing for the GT500. I know a lot of hard work and effort went into convincing the bean counters to even let you have it, let alone get it to...

    Sonic Blue turbo Cobra with grey shelby stripes?

    I was driving to work South on Rt 3. near Chelmsford on Friday. Saw a Sonic Blue Cobra (03 or 04 I think). He pulled up next to me gunned it and I noticed it had a Turbo logo under the SVT logo. Had some type of racing seats in it. Any idea who this may be?

    Finally got the local yellow 2005 GTO guy to give it up.

    I've had many run ins with the local 2005 Yellow GTO owner. I think he keeps trying to beat me on the road, and then goes and gets upgrads and then tries again a few weeks later. Today coming home from the vet's office, there he is running thru traffic to catch up with me. I really wasn't...

    Yellow 2005 GTO goes down...

    I've been hearing a lot of chatter how much faster the 2005 GTO's are and supposedly (from the LS2 crew anyways) the 2005 GTO is more than a match for the Cobra. I don't think so. Coming down from exit 12 on Rt. 3 south this morning, I had a 2005 GTO (I think it was an 05, it did have the...

    Dunlop M3s on the Cobra...

    First, I wasn't going to spend 32k on a car and put it away for months at a time because of a little rain or snow, so if you don't like it, it's not your car, it's mine, and I still am going to win more competitions this spring and summer with my all year car... So today I had some 245/45/R17...

    GTO goes down hard...

    There was a black GTO tailing me on the way home from Manchester. Kept on getting on my ass and pushing me to race. I really wasn't in the mood, but after remembering several posts on LS1GTO.COM about GTO's beating 03/04 Cobra's, I figured what the hell. I dropped from 6th to 4th. I don't...

    New Evo MR wanted to play... and lost

    Im driving back from Starbucks after picking up my morning scone and cap, when I saw a white Evo MR, with temp tags even from a couple of weeks ago. Mind you he is driving with his wife/gf in the car with him too. We were going the same way and I didn't think much of it. I put my radar...

    Couple of images, newly repainted hood and the brushed aluminum wheels...

    As promised... I'm very much liking the paint job and even more so the brushed aluminum wheels over my old chromies...

    Got the Snake back...

    On Monday morn I dropped the Snake off at my local SVT dealer (AutoFair Ford of Manchester) to fix some squeeking in the steering and to get both doors and the hood repainted (the doors were not painted on the bottom or the inside edges, and the underside of the hood was not painted at all)...

    Got Ford to paint the car again.

    I've got one of the few screaming yellow hard top SVT's out there. I noticed that both the undersides of the doors and the hood under the heat blanket were not painted. I fought with the manager at the dealership a couple of times, but he finally backed down when I showed him some of the...

    MassCobra and a wheel swap.

    Today I was lucky enough to meet up with MassCobra. He has a nice black 2003 with some Stingers and the chrome COBRA letters in the back. We swapped wheels, he got my Chromies, I got his brushed aluminum. Well worth it, his car is simply stellar now, and finally with my Screaming...

    Anyone with the brushed wheels want to trade for the chrome wheels?

    I have the Chrome 2004 wheels on my Terminator right now. I'm not liking them, as they don't quite look good with the Screaming Yellow. Is there anyone out there LOCAL that would be up for a trade? I'd be willing to do an even trade with you as long as the wheels are in MINT condition (as...

    Cobra Daytona Seat's Installed!

    Well today I got my seats in from Ludes! Ordered last week on Tuesday, got em today! Not bad at all considering they are coming from California to me here in New Hampshire. I figured I would share my install with you for those that are going to do this upgrade. 1.) Remove stock seats. I...

    Next mods?

    OK I don't have access to a pro-shop, so I'm really limited as to what I can do to my 04 Terminator. I've already put in a Steeda CAI and that does wonders, it really looks good and really makes the car perform better. What should I do next? A couple things: 1.) I live in an apartment...

    Steeda CAI installed

    install was a piece of cake. Only issue I had was removing the Ford standard bolts/screws from the MAF that holds it to the bell of the air filter box. Once I got them out, it went together quick and painless. Total install time 35-45 minutes. Would have been shorter if I got the bolts out...

    Local Performance Shops?

    Well the local Ford Performance shop here in Nashua seems to have closed it's doors for good. Anyone know of anyplace decent that I can have tune my car when needed? In the next few months I'll be doing mid-lengths, X pipes, and catbacks, as well as doing a new (or at least better) shift...
