I'm liking the positive feedback guys . I'm the same. I hate Fords but I like the new Cobras a lot, and to the other guy with the Cobra, Sonic Blue is awesome .

i like those alot and i hate fords. becareful making alot of power cause your gonna snap the half shaft over 400

Im makin over 400 to the wheels and my half-shafts are just fine. Its all about controlling the power. If you dump the clutch and let the rear end hop around, then the half shafts will snap like twigs. But, if you ease out of the hole, and then punch it when you get grip, theyll be just fine. Of course, ya could always just go to a solid axle and not worry about snapping anything, but that kills the ride quality and the great handling.

a friends 450whp cobra blew the half shafts out just like that, it wheel hopped at the track and crack!

[9D9 MITSU RS]

Those cobras aren't even a mustang. They are in a completely different category. They are beasts.

To keep good traction and not snap halfshafts on the IRS you really need a huge list of parts: anti-hop shocks, polyurethane bushings, upgraded halfshafts(stock ones are good up to about 480-500 RWHP if you have all the other mods), differential brace, subframe connectors, etc etc etc. Now if you have all that, then you need to worry about breaking the input shaft on the tranny, it only holds up to about 450 RWHP reliably. But, as usual, someone makes an upgrade for that too. All in all, all the stock drivetrain and engine parts work fine up till 500 RWHP, at that point you enter a whole new world of mods. At least the internals are proven up to and over 1000 FWHP.

its the truth, but you don't live out here so I don't have to tell you.

I personally know more than 10 people that run 11-12s in arizona. Some of the fastest dsm's in the US are there.

For those who say that they "hate" Ford I hope you all have valid reasons. Most people I talk to say "I hate Ford" and I ask why...they say "just because they are ###".

Hopefully you had some experience to back it up and it's not just word of mouth.


Nice car...love that blue on a Mustang not too many of them have that color.

 

[xBOOSTx]

and how much does a cobra cost???

 

[ckozlgod]

and how much does a cobra cost???

Probably as much as your going to spend on repairs for your car

 

[notdisturbed]

and how much does a cobra cost???

Cost matters why? If you can afford what you want, then you buy what you want.

 

[super95awd]

Ya seriously, why does that matter? Well I just took her out for her first real drive. Big adjustment from a turbo 4cyl to a blown v8 is all I have to say .

 

[a_scobel]

and how much does a cobra cost???

And how much does an Evo cost??Or a WRX?? Your car cost around 25k when it was brand new...not too far from the price of a Cobra.
