    Thanks guys.

    swapping 03/04 fuel components

    Agreed, in theory you could run the '03 cobra's 39lb injectors, but you'd be under-utilizing them, and it would be a waste of money. They're not better injectors...they're just bigger injectors. In fact, a case could be made that they're slightly SLOPPIER when asked for very tiny squirts of...

    swapping 03/04 fuel components

    If we're talking about the same thing, an NX plate kit is "wet" meaning it supplies it's own fuel separate of the injectors. If you jet the nitrous kit right, you don't need a larger injector for the engine. The opening on the '03 MAF is larger (90mm vs 80mm) but your motor can't suck enough...

    Seat upgrade

    I use my car primarily on the road course, and am interested in a seat upgrade as the bolsters on my stockers are torn, and they don't hold me in place anyway. Are the 03/04 bolsters enough of an upgrade to get one of the foam and cover kits from TMI or should I be looking aftermarket?

    Fuel hats

    The little blue plug you see in the pics can be removed to plumb a return line. All fore hats are built that way. Will you NEED a second FPDM? Maybe...maybe not. There seems to be several answers to this question depending on who you ask: 1. No, you're fine, but under extreme conditions...

    swapping 03/04 fuel components

    No performance improvement will be seen by swapping over to the terminator 90mm MAF and 39# injectors UNLESS you're maxing out your current 24# injectors and 80mm MAF. You would need forced induction for that to happen.

    Synthetic oil with leaky valve seals.

    Like most of these cars with untouched motors, and high mileage, I get a lovely puff of oil on hot start (and occasionally cold start). I'm set to do an oil change this weekend, and as I drive this car only occasionally, I was thinking about filling with royal purple or other high-dollar...

    Fuel system upgrades

    I'm eventually going procharged, and in order to "do this right" I'm going to make the rest of the car bulletproof first. I've decided to tackle the fuel system. My goals are 600rwhp, but honestly...I'll probably fall short and hang out around 500rwhp. What's the hot ticket for this? I'm...

    Valve seals. Live with it?

    How much decel oil consumption do you live with to avoid the onnerous task of either replacing valve seals with the motor in place or building a new motor? My car has about 90k on the clock, and it sucks enough oil that I can smell it on decel (no cats), but not enough that I'm puffing. I do...

    MAF at idle

    I'm trying to track down a p0171/p0174 that has so far passed every single EGR, evap, and vacuum test I can think to run...so maybe it's a bad MAF? What do you NA guys get for idle MAF readings? Would prefer gm/s or kg/hr in case your MAF is different.

    FS: 03 cobra hood

    FS is an OEM 03 cobra hood currently painted mineral grey. The blanket has been removed, and the underside painted. It's a maaco paint job so the paint isn't wonderful, but the hood itself is in great shape. Comes with stock vents. I'll upload pics shortly. $400 obo

    shorties vs LTs

    I know the standard advice is that, if you're going to go through the trouble, go LTs. However, what if someone already went through the trouble to install shorties? Is it worth the effort to install long tubes?

    Catted h pipe

    Is MRT the only company left making a catted aftermarket h pipe for our cars? I know mac used to, but honestly I can't find ANYTHING with cats on their page anymore.

    600rwhp on pump gas

    I'm planning out my build, and this is my goal. I'd like to make 600rwhp on pump gas, no nitrous, no meth with either a centri or single turbo although at this point I'm leaning towards a centri because of packaging. Is 600hp doable at 10:1 compression w/93 octane? Should I be build a 9:1...
