Finally got my Cobra out of storage. Has been such a crazy year with COVID-19 and my work and life schedule. Close on a new home in 4 days after living with the in-laws for the last 7 weeks

I'm installing a 3" bassani catback next week and wanted to try to document inside cabin exhaust noise before the install, but forgot my gopro so had to use my cell.


Man, this car was just scaring me a bit to be honest. After driving my 191whp Fiesta ST all winter, I just wasn't ready for the power. But, definitely a great adrenaline rush. And that was on the pump gas low boost tune. I'm sure you guys have similar experiences after not driving it for a while.

I just kept looking at the boost gauge lol... thing moved so fast. It sounds awesome and it's nice to see these cars still running strong. I know what you mean about getting used to a car. I used to have a little Lexus IS200t as a daily with a 2.0L 4 cylinder and then jump in the Viper on the weekends. It was like a tack hammer vs a sledgehammer.

Yeah it made pretty good numbers for pump. Gained 100whp over the last pump setup

The Bassani is gonna rattle your teeth out. I had it on mine and it was LOUD! I was also 24 years old and loved every second of it!

I’m old school, I love the Mac flowpath systems on these SN95s, but borla comes in second.

Sounds good with that setup to me. Let us know how the 3" compares. Man, it's pulling like a 747! LOL. I can well imagine the adrenaline shock during the first pull after driving your FIST all winter.

I had a much lesser shock after driving my wife's 175hp Hyundai Kona all winter and then taking out my 365hp G-70. Nowhere near your comparison, but still a fun shock.
