As I've proven, you can get arrested for going too fast in your car, you won't get arrested for going too fast on your computer and the e-peen levels are about the same.

Yeah, that'll do. I've got a 73 Cutlass 455 pumping about 550hp and 600ft/lbs through a th400 to a custom built quick-change rear end. My current project is an 81 dodge 2wd ramcharger with a 400 crank hp 318 4speed that'll be just a fun street truck to help keep me out of trouble. 3.54 dana60 in the back to save me a little bit of gas.

someone should buy my turd... it looks nice and sounds good but its too slow for the gas it drinks...

A buddy of mine has one of the cobras in that body style, he's thrown way too much time and money at it. it's twin tubo'd with a water/air intercooler between the superchager housing and the lower intake manifold and it's using the hollowed out superchager housing for an upper intake manifold. it's worth about 800 crank hp and it's a blast in a straight line. I swear that thing has worse handling than my cutlass though!!!

03 cobras handle AWESOME!

i helped my buddy build a 96GT... Ford Racing Block, cobra crank, Eagle Rods, Diamond Pistons, he made the turbokit and used a Masterpower T70... at 14psi it made something like 600hp... fast as poo to my opinion

If you think they handle awesome you need to get behind the wheel of ANY of my cars. My FWD 2005 Impala handles better than that car did and I've never driven a car that handles as nice as my corvette w/ coilovers. The 73 has a full four link with watts link and coilovers in the back and C6 spindles with tubular control arms and coilovers with a fully boxed and z'ed frame. I'm not comparing it to stock cars but, I remember how my split window 350 and my 67 L88 handled and they could carve pretty close to that cobra right off the showroom floor.

I didn't see it mentioned so I have to throw this out there. The Antec 900 is basicly the worst case I have ever owned from a cable management view. Unless your willing to break out a dremel and do some mods save yourself a good deal of buyers remorse and skip it.

thanks for the heads up on the Antec nine hundred...

lol, normally people just drag race those cars hahahaha

my buddies 99 Civic Si is pretty much the best handling car ive ever had a chance to ride in. it has a set of D2 coilovers and falken azenis on it... motor only makes about 160-170 at the tires but it yanks that car up and down Paris Mountain fairly well...

if your wondering what paris mountain is then think of the Tail of the dragon except makeevery turn a blind corner and compact it into about 5 miles and make some of the turns EVEN tighter.

Thats because people are lacking the money, patience or skill to set-up them up right 9/10 times. It's easy to throw a 4-bar or ladder bar set-up in the back of a car, gut it and take it to the straight track. Making a 3600lb coupe with 600ft/lbs not only a street car but, a corner carver is where the challenge, and there fore the real fun, lies.

About the only thing I've heard is that the HDD cooling may not be as C-M intended, so C-M will send you a fan bracket for the top of the HDD stack if you ask. It was being sold for under $100 around christmas time, maybe hold out for a better deal than currently. It has an 81% 5-egg rating. Lots of reviews out there on it - check some for other POVs on it.

I think there's a big YMMV tag on the cosmos. I did not like the construction or the airflow but, others really like it. I'm just too picky I guess.
