My new '03 MG Cobra Vert

[georgost]

Hi there,
Very new to the cobra game. Just bought my '03 DSG Cobra Vert in late fall and trying to learn as much as I can. The mods currently (as far as I know) are:

Whipple 2.3L 1st Gen
Not sure on pulley but was told it's making 19lbs
60lbs injectors
Unsure of T/B
SCT BA 3000 MAF
JLT intake (moves MAF into fender)
Killer Chiller
Cobra Y2K front Brakes
SS lines front and back
Steeda IRS Brace
Full Tilt Boogie IRS bushing kit
H&R Race Springs
KB BAP
Stock Manifolds
Bassani Catted X
SLP Loudmouth

Was told that it made 592rwhp, can't recall the torque.

Just picked up a near new set of AFS chrome Cobra R rims 9" out front and 10.5" out back. Have 315/30 to go on those 10.5" rims.

Eventually would like to add long tubes but nothing more this year.

Nice looking ride. Maybe it's just the lighting, but the car looks more Mineral Grey than Dark Shadow Grey.

Thanks guys. won't make that mistake again

It was an early color, carry over from pre 2003 days, didnt stay long, dropped for 2004 to Dark Shadow. Its unique and rare as not many got ordered in that color. My old 2003 was mineral and had a hard time warming up to it, but only cause I longed a Sonic blue one, I appreciated the color and its uniqueness. You have a rare color so thunbs up.

I hear you. It wasn't my first choice either (more of a primary color kind of guy) but the price and upgrades were exactly what I was looking for I only wanted a 'vert. Just looking forward to spring.

OP, look inside the drivers side door for the paint code and report back. It could be DSG. The colors are close with DSG being a tad darker. Nice looking car BTW.

Car is at the shop, will have mechanic take a pic and will post it

Look at the front of his vs mine, as mines MG.

 

[ricardoa1]

Yours and his is the same color lol. MG has copper golden undertone. DSG is well gray

nice ride, OP! Can't beat the termis

 

[georgost]

I had a super clean '91 triple black fox with 25k miles but just found that I needed more than just a super clean car and couldn't bring myself to mod the hell out of it. So ended up selling that car and getting into this one with some money left over. Can't wait to get the chrome 18" cobras on......may look to get it re-tuned so I know exactly what's going on with the car.

Nice looking Car OP, Whipple was a great choice.

 

[georgost]
