    What's up guys!

    I haven't been around for a while, but I was just checking in to see what's new. Anybody do anything new or crazy lately? I've been working a LOT lately, so my online time is limited. I'm glad to see SN95 Cobra guys still going strong though. My car has been at a standstill since I tuned...

    Finished TURBO pics at last!

    Everything's dirty, no time to work on it lately (insert another random excuse here). It runs good, I just need to tie up a lotta little cosmetic things. It's a show car from 10 feet, but definately not a show car up close by any means until I get some time to clean everything up. The inlet...

    Got the car back, runs AWESOME.

    Picked the car up from the tuner Saturday morning, and I am VERY surprised to say the least. This guy is a friggin' awesome tuner. With the PT67 turbo and .81 A/R turbine housing, it full spools around 3000rpm, even lower in higher gears. Power comes on HARD and doesn't stop until redline...

    One last video tribute to my Cobra, N/A

    http://videos.streetfire.net/video/Supercharged-98-Lincoln_69683.htm This was the only track video I had of my car N/A, this was the slowest pass of the day, hot off the highway. It ran consistent 13.1's at 106-108mph hotlapping and launching barely off idle and granny-shifting (I was 300...

    Hey guys, I'm back!

    Well guys, it's good to be back. About 8 months ago I got fed up with my Cobra because of money, school, lack of time, etc, etc, etc, but I am back in game now. The Cobra is all turbo'd and tuned, and is now more of a racecar than streetcar (although I think I may pick up some 18's for the...

    Tranny/Clutch Removal/Installation Write-up

    1.) If you don't have a lift, set the E-brake and block the rear tires securely. 2.) Jack up the front of the car and put good jackstands under each side, or use ramps if possible so you don't have to work around them. 3.) Disconnect the battery for safety. 4.) Inside the car, remove...

    Cleaning the combustion chambers/IMRC's/runners with Seafoam Decarbonate

    Ok, you all wanna know about Seafoam. Seafoam is this stuff that is used to dissolve carbon deposits in your combustion chambers and will do the same on the IRMC's pretty well. I was sceptacle at first, but then I used it and WOW, what a difference on my 96 Cobra. It can be bought at most...

    Why did my thread get deleted?

    I just posted a thread a couple hours ago about the engine-support tools we designed and made for dropping the K-member, and now the thread is gone. What gives? I'm not a supporting vendor, but I was just tossing the option out there for people that may need the tool. It's not like anybody...

    Started on the turbo kit finally!

    So we started on the turbo kit. We are gonna have to use a tubular K-member, BUT, I think we have found a way to bolt it straight onto your factory exhaust manifolds! We've been doing some outside-the-box stuff and I think everybody will be thoroughly pleased. We are shooting for 420rwhp and...

    Cobra gets a single turbo in 3 weeks!

    I am dropping my car off on April 1st. The guy is a fabricator and master welding (TIG and MIG) and has been for 20-25 years. He's mostly been doing full-blown racecars and such for a while and wants to break into the streetcar market, so he's using my Cobra to fabricate a single-turbo street...

    Greetings from the 96-98 crowd, thought you might be interested in this stuff...

    I figure most of you rarely venture to the other side of the fence where us 96-98 goons dwell, so I thought I'd extend to you a few write-ups I did. Some of this stuff is 96-98 Cobra specific, but most of it applies to New Edges as well, and much of it applies to all late-model Mustangs. The...

    Warning: My car gives hard-ons

    Here's a few new pics we took in my driveaway yesterday just for fun. I just put the black letters on and I think it really sets off the taillight bezels, roof, and wheels. Enjoy.

    Deleting the A/C???

    Alrighty, I plan on deleting the A/C this winter and I was wondering if anybody else had done it. My main question was whether or not you must buy the A/C delete pulley setup or if you could just run a shorter belt somehow. Anybody?

    Anybody use SCT's Pro Racer software?

    I am buying SCT's Pro Racer software soon, but I had some questions for anybody using it on a 96-98 Cobra, specifically the 96 Cobra. I need a base file for the LLX4 PCM. I know 97 Cobras had the LLX4 processor, so I assume the 96's did too...but I know there is an LLX3 processor that exists...

From what I've been told we was having fun enjoying his Cobra and accelerating rapidly after leaving...

    Anybody here launching off a 2-step?

    I was wondering if anybody in here had their car setup to launch on a studder-box (2-step)? I'm wiring in an MSD 2-step in conjunction to my window switch in a couple weeks. My car should launch harder on a 3K RPM 2-step launch than a 4500 RPM free-rev launch. Anybody got experience with...
