Open to all trades, but would like to find a nice Silverado/crew cab for a DD/work truck.

I am the 2nd owner of this beautiful cobra, she’s torch red and in superb condition. I purchased this car Mar 28, 2009 and I bought it off ebay from a guy in Dallas, TX…It was all stock except a ported eaton blower and magnaflow exhaust. I had been looking for this exact car for a long time when I found it, a low mileage car (13,900) that hadn’t been torn into and raced into pieces. “I knew I was going to mod this car and try to have a very fast car built” so instead of going to TX and picking the car up I had the car trailered to JKS Performance of Mansfield, TX (a suburb of Dallas Fort Worth, TX) to be modified!!! I first started off with :rockon:

Stage 3 Modular Mustang Racing (MMR) Heads
Stage 3 COMP camshafts
Stage 5 ported eaton
BBK Longtube Headers
(I’m sure im forgetting some things) but this setup on 91 octane dyno’d @ (519rwhp on mustang dyno) on 17 lbs of boost!

This wasn’t netting me the power level I wanted to be at so I made some fuel upgrades, some suspension upgrades and went to a kb 2.2 blower instead of the ported eaton…Granted I could of made a lot more power with a 2.8 KB mammoth or a 3.4 whipple, I chose the 2.2 because I love the sound they make since they are spun so hard and I got this at an amazing price! This upgraded blower made (583 rwhp on mustang dyno) on 91 octane and 18 lbs of boost!

Happy but not completely impressed with those numbers, I wanted more so I decided to go with twin turbo…Even though most people would have stopped at that point and just enjoyed the car as is ( because at this point I had owned the car for about 6 months and still had not driven it) I had Josh the owner of JKS Performance rip off all the stuff I didn’t need anymore to convert the car to a twin turbo setup…I sold most of it through SVT Performance.com and the other stuff I either sold through his shop or I still have at his shop in a box! I then contemplated which turbo kit to go with, I decided to have a custom Twin 67mm Turbo kit fabbed up by Majestic Turbo in Waco, TX. The Turbos are 67 mm Garrett turbos that are good for (750 hp) each. The hot and cold side piping along with the upper sheet metal intake was fabricated by Josh and his employees at JKS… The intercooler is from HP Racing in New Mexico, it was all then sent off to a powder coater and then installed along with all the the parts listed below to make a breath taking view… This setup looks similar to the kits made at HPP Racing in Lewisville, TX. The battery has been relocated to the rear trunk to allow space for the turbo!

After seeing and driving behind the truck. Mustangs are a dime a dozen. I've gotten more compliments on my truck in the short months I have owned it, than my Bullitt in 6 years.
Thanks again BTW

Chad
