    FS:(Orlando FL) Black 2003 Cobra Convertible w/tan seat inserts

    Its time to buy a house, so my baby is up for sale ($20,995). The car has never been raced at a track, but it has been dynoed at over 600 hp (515 whp). It was featured in a race magazine as one of the first NOS beta tester installs being done by MD motorsports in Cincinatti OH. Still has the...

    Car died last night....WTF is up with Ford Alternators?

    Well im 99% sure my alternator quit last night. I have never upgraded the lower pulley and there is only 42k on the car. I just wish it was easier to change out. How many miles are on your alternators? I knew it was a weak link of the motors, but i think mine went a little prematurely.:mj:

    What is your mileage on the stock clutch??

    I was just wondering what is expected at a replacement if u have about 460whp and drive it pretty hard on the average. When i got it dynoed the other day my tuner said that my clutch it a little taxed..its not slipping really yet...but it is showing signs that it may. I have 43000 miles on it...

    Flirting with a 12.0 A/F ratio

    I was just wondering what the point of view of experienced tuners is on A/F ratio with 12.0. I just had my car tuned and it made good numbers (470 hp w 460 tq) but the A/F curve was at or just above the 12.0 mark...I dont want to hurt the motor, but the guy that tuned it is reputable in the...

    Satisfied with Dyno Performance (VMP)

    After the smaller pulley (3.0) and acufab it put down 470 @ the wheels, and with the 35 wet shot it put down 525. I was happy to be 500+ with the stock unported blower. I need an upgraded clutch now..lol [/URL][/IMG]

    is .32 too small of a gap on NGK Iridium plugs?

    I have been noticing the idle is not as smooth as i expected after putting my new NGK plugs in. I have a 3.0 pulley and a 50 wet shot of NOS on the car, so it was recommended to gap them that small. But should i have went a little bigger? I may have even losts about 1mph in my gas mileage as...

    What is the best set of REAR tires that will last a lil longer then Nitto DR's???

    I have had 3 sets of DR's on the back of my car. First the BFG's, then 2 sets of Nittos. On the front i have Nitto Extreme Performance. I have pushed about 10,000 miles outta the Nitto DR's. What is a good substitute i could use that will still hook up decent and last a lil longer? KDW's??

    Advice needed for plugs and gap (w/spray)

    Right now i have the NGK TR6's in. I forget what gap i have them at (assuming low w/spray). When i put them in i had a 50 hp wet shot (capable) w/stock pulley, dynotuned, x-pipe w/bassani exhaust, and CAI. I have added a 3.0 pulley since then. I would like to get the Iridium's to reduce the...

    12.1 a/f??

    Does anyone run in the low 12's with the terminator? I am right now but i have a tune that pulls a couple degrees of timing just to be safe after a pulley swap to a 3.0. I need to data log it to find out for sure whats goin on, but the wideband proved to be 12.1's across the board.

    Misfires after New TR6's??

    I have noticed that at a rpm of 1500-2500 there is a lot of engine popping (misfires) and then normal idle there are not many misfires. There are gapped at .030 because i spray a 50 shot periodically. It pulls a lil stronger than the stock plugs that were in there before. Has anyone experienced...

    Car has been DT'ed w/stock pulleys. Do i need to retune with 4lb lower??

    Just wondered if i could get away with adding a couple more lbs of boost to my setup. Current mods are intake, exhaust, and 75 wet shot of spray. it has a tune for spray and one for blower only. Im only making 7.5 lbs of boost on the stock pulleys. and im pretty sure that both the tunes are fat...

    Power cutting out on spray...

    I decided to test out the car a lil on spray today and the power would noticably cut out when i would be WOT. It did it twice (once at the end of 2nd and once at the end of 3rd) about 4-5k rpm in both gears. Could this be a result of misfires? It doesnt do it off of spray. Its a 75-100 hp wet...

    Just curious what your car can run up to 60mph. I just put on some BFG DR's and i would estimate a low 4 second 0-60 time because they hook sooo good
