Don't worry. Nothing is like the feeling when you get it just the way you want it and take it out for that first drive.
Transformation of my 2003 cobra!

nice!
what do you drive? im in ofallon IL too. with my compression my tuner thinks on even 17psi and corn i should make close to 700 or even over. I want to make not too much over that for traction reasons. Im going to do that new IRS build im seeing, and some stronger halfshafts. If i can get 700-725 to HOOK with all my weight reduction it should be a very fast street car. i dont have to be the fastest..just beat up on all the smack talking street bikes we have in the area. For some reason guys on two wheels( even if they cant drive) think that no car should be beating them. HA!
thanks! i was thinking about that, but i would have to buy some 180 turns for the rails, run the line back all the way along the sides and back to the back....i may do that later but im afraid i will run close on line if i do that....and i dont feel like ordering more haha.
the first set? yah the ruff racings. I dont like to think about selling them...the only reason i did was because i thought i was putting the car up for sale and had too much $$ in them. I am trying to get them back from my buddy
thanks man!
Nice work Dave!!! She's going to be an absolute BEAST!!
Did you ever get that MAC catback on yet you bought from me in the spring?

Looks like a sweet build, hopefully no more ticking after it's all said and done!
Get the heck outta here
You got a new car on the way yet?[/QUOT:coolman:
it is sitting right by the car. I have to get some new hangers welded so it sits even before i install it. excited to hear it though! im hoping for the "snakebite" sound. 3 inch OR x with a nasty sounding catback!
haha if there is i will drive it off a cliff. its a 100 percent different motor that was built RIGHT and only has 500 miles. if it ticks, I just have the worst luck ever.

you guys cut it out! haha....we all need to go on a IL cruise this spring. I have not made it to the last two on STLmustangs. lets get all the guys together come march aprilish.
:beer:
very nice, but just a thought...the way you the fuel lines running to the front. If you shred a belt you might tear those lines up.
I thought about that....i am looking at at least moving theright one up and out of the way or something. They are pretty beefy lines, but you are right i dont want to risk it.....hmmm...
Sounds great to me! My next car is being shipped here as we speak. Should be in my garage by Friday
^what would that be?
looks good! how hard was it to get the motor back in with the lt's installed? i hear a lot of people like to remove the motor from the bottom but that sounds like a real bear to tackle.

Why did you sell the 5.0 already then? Some thing wrong with it? What didnt you like about it?
03 cobra, converted to NA already, has k-member and coilovers already...once i get a few loose ends buttoned up will be a nice turbo car
well i actually sold it like 3 months ago. nothing wrong with it at all, smoothest driving, smoothest shifting, and one of the best sounding cars ever...it just didn't have the familiar mustang appeal to it ya know. on top of the fact that it was so expensive upfront i was afraid to mod it lol
Nice job....great looking DSG!!
That's a helluva lotta work...nicely done!
Mad props for doing all that yourself mang. I bet you can't wait.
