Already got some stuff for my 2003

[fangstang]

I should be getting my T-56 tri-ax shifter this week in the mail. I'm gonna transfer my o/r x-pipe from my current cobra and I also have 4.10 gears sitting under my bed. I'm hoppin to have these installed within the hour of the car being in my possesion. Just have to get a speed calibrator and am going to get it dyno-tuned.
I think I'm gonna get the FR-500 exhaust for this thing, and sme long tubes, yeah!:coolman:

I Just got my Tri-Ax today...Boy is it nice..

Hey your O-R Xpipe have a place for the o2 sensor, or do you get a check enigine light after you installed? I want to get one, any thoughts?

I don't think your h-pipe will work with the new T-56. If I'm not mistaken, the ones for the R model were different from the regular Cobra just for that reason.

I have those MIL eliminators on so the light does not go on. You can re-use the O2 sensors. I have an off-road BBK X-pipe on and it really wakes the neighbors up! This thing now sounds like it should. The upper rpm power is amazing(starting at 4K-redline). Since ive installed this pipe back in october, no one, I mean no one wants to approach me, never mind race. People just pull over to the other lane when they hear me coming and I'm not a crazy careless driver what so ever! I think its money well spent, I have never had the car dynoed, but, I think I got atleast 10-15 hp from it. The car revs easier, goes into gears easier, take my word for it, get one and you'll see! You'll be smilin all day, every day As far as fitting in the new cobra w/ the t-56, I dont think there will be a problem, remember, the R has side pipes so the pipes run different for that reason. Plus, it has to do with the large fuel tank that the R had side pipes. Nothing to do with the tranny.

I don't think the sidepipes have anything to do w/ the X pipe do they?... maybe I'm wrong though.

Lockout switch for reverse?

The instructions for the Tri-Ax say you have to install a 12v switch to engage reverse! What is the deal with that? Anybody?

I think this only applies to Mustangs that didn't have a T56 as original equipment. Your '03 Cobra should not need this modification.
