Re: 03 Cobra Vs. Si

Comparing Apples to Oranges really, but yes the Cobra is cooler. However, I'd prefer the Si.

Re: 03 Cobra Vs. Si

LMFAO! well sure the cobra is faster and eats more gas but technologicaly the FA is years ahead and has better suspension plus its lighter and saves gas. I would love to see that cobra go heads up with a FA with some suspension work at GMR then we will see how wins.

But I can respect you like youre American muscle so props but you should have gotten a camaro. thats just my preference since I also have one in the garage.

Re: 03 Cobra Vs. Si

Careful, according to certain movies, you can put a RB26DETT in one of those overnight and drift it down a mountain!

Well, either way, I admit I'd pick a Cobra over a Civic if I was getting one for free.

Ya we got a bit defensive. However, he was asking for a little trouble posting what he did on civicforums. What If I went over to a mustang forum, posted the same thing, and put "civic wins!"? Not to mention, starting a thread and then posting it's topic sucks.

Re: 03 Cobra Vs. Si

Is that last one a centrifugal s/c or a full turbo? I wonder how the roots type compares to the centrifugal s/c. Anyhow, I went to the annual mustang show at Santa Margarita Ford a couple weeks ago and there was a lot of nice stuff there. A bunch of them had their dyno sheets posted and it seems relatively easy to make over 500whp with these large V8's and a s/c. What was neat was there was one mustang, the previous gen, with Tein coilovers, Fujitsubo intake, and Volks. The hardcore domestic guys hated it. Sorry for the long post. Nice Cobra BTW.

Re: 03 Cobra Vs. Si

Is it better to turbo or s/c a mustang just curious. I guess it depends on what you want to do but I just haven't seen many turboe'd domestics besides srt-4's and the cobalt ss.

The last pic is my 99 Cobra and I added a centrifugal s/c, since its centri style it boosts the same way like a turbo would toward the higher rpms. If you like instant boost the roots style is more fun to drive cause boost will come on fast at 3K rpm. Glad to hear that u are like me appreciating different cars too.

I've heard Turbo is the way to go and make much more power on the top end than any other roots style s/c, but I believe the Turbo is not CA smog legal so that's a big drawback for us CA resident to even think about. I met a Korean guy with a turbo mustang and it pull away fast on the freeway.
