Im not trying to debate you but there is a huge difference in sound with an off road pipe and a catted H or X pipe.
The off roads are MUCH louder. I had both on my car. `
Well I finally picked up a 93 Cobra, a few ?s

Still waiting on the pics !
I'll have some pics up of it very soon, but for a Christmas gift my wife gave me the OK to go ahead and get it painted like it needs. So I'm in the process of tearing it down now to get it over to the paint shop this weekend. Maybe you guys could help me as to how the side body moulding and window moulding is attached. I'm pretty damn good with an engine, but I've never really done anything body wise. Just trying to save a few bucks by disassembling what I can. This project is really coming together now and Im so fricking excited to get a fresh coat of paint on it and see how she'll look
on the drip rail mouldings. just take the screw out from inside the door and slide the rail back, it comes right off. as for the front and hatch glass, be careful. I took a plastic wedge and slid it under the outside edge, and slowly pried them up. sometimes the inside edge was easier. just try to use a tool that won't scratch the glass or paint. some came right off and some were really difficult.
Aren't the side mouldings taped on?

Well I ordered a new set of Cobra Emblems for both the fenders and a rear Cobra emblem for the hatch. Is the Ford emblem on the passenger side rear supposed to be there? Also ordered my weatherstripping and next pay day Im goin to start ordering all new moulding. I was hoping to take it in this week to have it painted, but have decided to delay that until I have all of the stuff I want to return it to perfect condition. Gosh this is an expensive project lol

do you mean the door belt, roof rail moldings, etc? I replaced those with NOS ford and they get mighty expensive. Can always redo them too. :shrug:
Yeah all of those parts and they do get expensive very quickly, but I want my car restored to mint condition and the ones on there now have a mild bit of warping it seems, so I thought it'd be best to replace them.
Man look up just a few posts I wish there was a way to just enter my new ceramic coated headers in a show lol
They are downright sexy aren't they. So, do you normally take pictures of things while cruising at 109mph?
Mine on motor makes 265rwhp / 301 tq with just shorties and a Pro-M.
I just realized this was a resurrected thread from a year ago.
Probably a dynojet right? Good numbers either way.
My 229hp was uncorrected on a mustang dyno (5000ft).
I just picked up another red '93, so I'm going to have it dyno'd as well. We'll see how it compares. It's stock except for a full exhaust system.

Well some guy I know that has a turbo Civic was trash talking trying to get my Cobra over 100 mph is futile sooooo.........
Ah. Didn't think it could do it? What a dumbass.
well he did think a Civic was a "performance car" so yeah his intelligence is in question.
No Civic sold in the US was a performance anything.
