Kick ass man. Looks great with the 03 front on it.

Lances03SVT 02-03-2006 04:38 PM

That is going to be sweet!!!

Icefreezen 02-03-2006 05:07 PM

I'm impressed looked like hell a few weeks ago and looks awsome now......you gonna stick with the color it is now? Or you gonna do something else with it.

New Edge 02-03-2006 05:12 PM

I am keeping the same color as it is badass and don't think ill ever change it i am just happy im getting it really.

whitethunder46 02-03-2006 05:43 PM

That does look awesome man. I would love to do something like that. So was there any heavy engine damage or mainly just body pieces and such.

New Edge 02-03-2006 06:09 PM

Nothig too bad. The radiator ac etc. had to be replaced and the fender support was really bad but the only things engine wise that we have found so far are a couple of pulleys, the belt and the crossover pipe other than that a lot of little brackets clips and little things had to be ordered and the junkyard was also a great source. over all it has gone really fast. It is hard to expound the amount of body damage though, it took a lot of work and connections to a frame shop to get it done so fast. We figured it would be in the frame shop for at least two weeks and we got it back four days later. I can't wait til i get to drive it tho, my dad has taken it around the block a couple of times the last two days but i still have no idea how much of a difference it will be between it and my v6. hopefully a lot!!!

Lances03SVT 02-03-2006 06:13 PM

It will be like you were walking compared too the Cobra!!!

MattJ 02-03-2006 06:17 PM

wow this project is comin along great! its gonna be sweet to see this done.

whitethunder46 02-03-2006 07:29 PM

Those Cobra engines are awesome. A friend of mine did an exhaust and midpipe, U/D pulleys, CAI with 80mm maf and a dyno tune. They hit 337RWHP with just those few mods. You're gonna be veryyy happy

New Edge 02-03-2006 07:33 PM

:pepper: Phew those are some good numbers, i hope mine puts out that well! The guys on svtperformance were getting like 305 with similar bolt ons so im not sure which to expect.

whitethunder46 02-03-2006 07:45 PM

It sounds awesome. Borla stinger catback with Bassani catted Xpipe.
337RWHP and 347RWTQ.

New Edge 02-03-2006 08:10 PM

Ya we took it out yesterday around the block bumperless and hood less and it was sooo friggin loud, i guess i don't have much to compare it to though having driven a crappy sounding v6!!!!

whitethunder46 02-03-2006 08:12 PM

Even Stock Cobra's are loud IMO

New Edge 02-03-2006 08:18 PM

Well i certainly won't be doing any exhaust upgrades in the near future! I think i am going to save up for some visual stuff this summer but i just can't wait to get it road ready so i can make the gay hick trucks at my school sound like friggin pussies!

Icefreezen 02-03-2006 08:38 PM

Man it looks like your gonna have to change your name on the forums. I cant wait to see that thing back from the paint shop

New Edge 02-03-2006 08:50 PM

whitethunder46 02-04-2006 03:50 PM

Damn boys, you're gonna have one sweet and fast N/A Cobra. The way that engine is going it would be pretty awesome to see a good powerful N/A DOHC.

01cobra 02-04-2006 04:12 PM

whitethunder46 02-04-2006 04:23 PM

DarkShadow04 02-04-2006 06:42 PM

DarkSith 02-04-2006 07:17 PM

That's an awsome project, that seems to be coming along pretty fast. Make sure you keep us posted on your progress. I bet this car is going to mean alot to you when it's done, considering the work that you're putting into it.

DarkShadow04 02-04-2006 07:19 PM

He doesnt do much but clean it well he put the support on for the resivaure (i dont know how to spell that)tank today

01cobra 02-04-2006 07:49 PM

jeff thinks 425-450 depending on cams and heads

White04GT 02-04-2006 08:01 PM

New Edge..you should get the cobra rear bumper to match!! give your little brother your old 1. It's the gt bumper correct?

DarkShadow04 02-04-2006 08:06 PM
