All I've learned fro this thread is if I don't make 400+ rwhp I'm going to get yanked by a stock 5.0, but I'm safe racing Cobras.
Pssh you need a car with 600whp to run with a stock 5.0, it's a proven fact oh and cobras are slowwwwwwwwww

I love how you come up with those assumption. Please enlighten me what sorts of "real auto racing" experience do you have? 20 year old with a 2001 cobra, you must think you are on top of the world. Running shit IRL.
Perhaps some picture of your car on a race track?
And you are an awesome person trapped in an assh0le that's extremely insecure.
I pick my friends wisely
the 5.0 is my slow car. so slow i get suprised when i try to pass a bunch of cars in a line and have to wait for power that is never coming...
in stock form it is superior in every way that matters to a cobra.
in modded form it can make 450-500rwhp on motor.
on boost it can handle 650hp forever.
its a fine engine that is not fully understood or respected by older enthusuaists...older meaning older model modular owners.
it has its limits...804rwhp as run by justin burcham.
its easy to quote extreme examples to prove a point. the average cobra makes 450-480rwhp. some are ported and make 475-511rwhp. they are hardly problem free at that power level. fewer still are screwed and make 600-750rwhp. how many folks run race gas? fewer still run E85 and all the expensive mods it takes to run that fuel.
keep it in perspective. 450-550rwhp isnt much really. you might kill my coyote unless i simply spray it...then go on about my business driving a superior product. nothing wrong with a termi or GT500, thought about getting one when i bought this. i already have a forged Teksid, so i dont need either.
Well said, Im a fan of both. I love my Cobra and i'm a fan of the new 5.0 also. I have a really good friend that had an 03 cobra that ran 9's with a 6spd and IRS. He has since sold it and bought a 11 5.0. He is knocking on 9's with it now. He said he thought he would never say it but he prefers his 11 over his cobra. Just search him on Youtube under qcksnake. Not hating on either the Cobra or 5.0 im a fan of any Mustang other than the dark years from 71-78:thumbsup:
Nice vids. Your buddy can drive. A6 or M6? Impressive what he's doing with just slicks/skinnies, clutch, bolt-ons and spray.
WooO!!!!! 5.0 vs. 10 year old car!!
Which do I pickkK!??
I love 03/04 cars, but I'd rather have a new GT with a WARRANTY.
Shall I go back and quote all of your stupid posts? :banana:
And :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: that your not a 5.0 fan boy.
I honestly would rather want lsx owners on here at this point, the 5.0 guys are extremely annoying.
The Terminator was built for one reason: speed. Thats it.
:dw:, Make your damn mind up man.FYI, Cobras were built with road courses in mind. You should :read: before you :cuss:
I honestly don't understand what all the arguing is about. You can build anything to be fast. Who cares how one car comes from the factory or not. I guess I don't even see the relevancy here. This is a forum where people MODIFY mustangs. We all know you can go faster for less in a foxbody than practically anything else. WHO CARES.
Fixed :banana:
If we are going to toss the warranty out the window I want to take a closer look at this 10 year old car again. :shrug:
LOL @ you being a hypocrite.
:dw:, Make your damn mind up man.
It's funny how the Cobra boys are in here doing the exact thing they're accusing the 5.0 guys of doing. Pretty amusing actually:rolling:
Well said.....
:lol1: hilarious
A pic of my go kart from 4 years ago
Not my car but the same Formula vee only ours is black
I would be willing to bet that your street car couldn't beat our 60hp formula vee around Mid Ohio
2 outta 3 aint bad
Does this mean we're not friends?
What is this "warranty" you speak of? Is that something that applies to stock (slow) cars?
Just YouTube the review from Car and Driver already. And yes, they did get a 12 FLAT quarter out of a stock 03 Cobra...as well as a 4.5 0-60. So you can adjust your fanboy glasses to see that clearly.:-D
why are we still arguing about 5.0s and terminators? it's getting annoying... it's been going on for weeks.
Taking a break from Mach 1s and SRT8s? :shrug:
