No, not "k", because I'm not arguing with you. Have fun with your Cobra. I'm sure it will look great with yellow and purple all over it also.

Hey what do you have something againt the Vikings "purple and Gold" colors or what?

And thinking back, don't you have a powder coated valve cover and those cheap ass euro looking tail lights as well?

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder man, or are you another self appointed style Nazi hero?

Nope the OEM custom Black and Red leather suits me just fine for the Cobra man?

You know the more mud you throw, the more of it just ends up right back in your face.

You know can accept and work withconstrutive criticsisum, but flat out rips will see the same from me in turn.

Maybe we'll have to just settle this in a race sometime?

*Devil's Advocate Suit On*

Before purchasing the car, did you call Mike at ADS to confirm what the seller said in his listing? Did you ask the seller why he chose to sell the car on eBay? Had he been trying to sell it locally but could not find a buyer? Or had he forgone selling it locally and gone straight to eBay?

*Suit off*

He is selling it locally, and on Ebay. Baby on the way story. I couldn't call Mike at ADS as it was 2 am when I put the deposit down. He will be called today. Also the car WILL be going in for a FULL independent shop inspection, including a leak down test, if it doesn't pass with flying colors the deals off and the seller knows it.

BTW, ALL the stock gear IS included in case of a needed emegergency demod.

LMAO, de-mod. that's a good one.

I just want to point this one out:

JLT Cold Air Intake - the most powerful Intake for the Cobra - Powder Coated to match the Torch Red Clearcoat (adds ~20hp and ~20tq)

I'm surprised those NGK plugs don't add 5-10 hp.

as long as the car runs and isn't crashed or dented and scratched, then have fun!

on a side note: assuming 15% drivetrain loss, that 140 hp gain is about right on, but i think he's guessing too much on some of those mods, like the cold air intake and X-pipe. an x-pipe is for low end torque on poopy low compression engines. I should use one.

I agree, I didn't believe those HP descriptions were very accurate, either, maybe loose ballpark at best. I do know MANY CObra guys swear by running the X-Pipe, but again, I'm no expert.

Thanks for you input!
