Other than changing the oil in my cobra and the contour, I installed these:

I installed my catback and proceded to beat on the Cobra all day long. Scared a lot of people too. Man is thing loud at WOT.

I haven't really had a chance to slam on them, but the normal braking feels stronger.

Washed my cars and currently putting a coat of Zaino on the Cobra. Really a great day outside...and tomorrow's going to be even nicer.

Matt, Brembos looking good!

Looks nice Matt, mind if I ask how much they set you back?

Looks like alot of you were busy Saturday.

I have two boys so I had to work activities around them most of the day. I still had the opportunity to get my track tires mounted and balanced and back in the trailer, clean out my garage from the recent thrashing....just so I could find tools again, inspect my new clutch setup that I just received, work a little on the IRS I am putting together and a bunch of other small items. :banana:

Today will be more of the same! :thumbsup:

Thanks Jason!!

Yeah Jason installed the JLT RAI and Magnaflow Catback...and it sounds awesome! I had a grin on my face from ear to ear all the way home! I can only imagine when I get the X-pipe and Magnapacs installed...I will probably break my cheek bones smiling so hard!!!

Jason..again Thanks!!!

Went out sat night to see if there was anything going on around Northen Parkway, 70 or Liberty Rd.... not a damn thing. Doesnt matter, I havent even had this thing a week yet. Dont want to try and start learning how to launch it untill I get the diff brace on anyway. Its been dead for a while now around there, is it just the winter, or is there a different spot that everyone has migrated to?

Not dead...there's just a lot of snakes in partial hibernation right now. Come on up to Amazon on the 26th and you'll get a nice taste of Cobras! Congrats on the getting the 03. I don't know if you're aware of it or not, but the DGG's are by far the fastest ones!

Here's a couple more pics. I had to adjust the driver's side brake line. Full left turns rubbed the tire on the line a bit.

After that I decided to perform some tests... They are definitly stronger than the stock PBRs. And the fade out is nearly gone.

Ken, $500 for the calipers plus a carbon fiber seat..
