I'm getting that terrible itch again for another cobra 03 or 04, but have been looking at the 2011 to 2014 5.0 and they are peaking my interest. Can some of you tell me the differences between 2011-2012-2013-2014 5.0. Also is the power similar to pulley change cobra? Just looking for info, not an argument on which is better. Thanks

from my point of view you get a newer car with newer technology with the coyotes and the termis come with a super charger that can be played with. both great both have plus and minus. I think the termi is good because you can do pulley intake and exhaust even some e85 and have a beast. bolt on coyote will be near mid 450s. but once you put boost on a coyote then usually the coyote has the edge. depends on whats important to you and which one looks better. 03/04 cobras are older and only made for 2 years so its harder to find an unmolested one. coyotes are pretty cheap right now and its not hard to find a good one or even one already modded

I would pickup a base GT 11/12 on the cheap and mod the piss out of it.

2011- first year of the coyote 5.0 302

2012- no changes I can think of.

2013- Ford deleted the oil squirters in the blocks, new front and rear end fascia and a slight power bump.

2014- no changes I can think of.

Power in these cars feel very different than a cobra. A 500hp Cobra feels raw. A 500hp coyote feels slow.

I'm on the same boat as this guy.

would that be the TVS? TVS should give that instant torque feel which might give it that raw feeling.
