There are some super-cool, killer setups being put together lately that I have been watching and drooling over... so I thought I'd maybe put them in one place so anyone else interested might be able to see them....

I just saw this one today.... car is pretty plain, very clean overall and is what I consider a sleeper as long as you dont hear it before it eats your lunch. :laugh:
Very simple, super nasty.
740 rwhp 659 rwtq :eek:

:drool: me want

[Wishing4cobra]

Oh damn that thing is a definite sleeper.

[5litrarag]

Oh damn that thing is a definite sleeper.

I have to agree... sounds like a badass blown 5.0 just sitting there and it looks like any other well cared for car. And then makes absolutely INSANE power.

THAT is a sleeper.
and thats what I want. :cig:

[Ogbatman]

Nice.

kinda sounds like your typical h/c/i S-trim if you're a blower noob, But the ysi is crazy loud :laugh:

kev, go to www.hellionpowersystems.com and hit up the poll. They have a poll asking what should be there next turbo kit offered. vote for the 94-95 :rockon:

Very true....

You know what I will do that poll even though I have no need to desire for a turbo system on either car. But I'll put in a word with this guy that posts on this other board and he apparently works for Hellion. Maybe he can get some strings pulled.
Funny thing is even though they dont sell a setup for our cars, he has a system on his 95....

Here's another of my favorites.... I had this one on the old board before the crash a few weeks ago.

95 GT with World Products 427 block 451 rwhp 500 rwtq

I kinda thought the numbers would be a bit higher, but I think the cam is a little undersized, so its probably right where it should be. but there is a WHOLE lot left on the table I bet.

Here's another one that is slowly turning into a favorite of mine... dude starts with a CLEAN 31k mile 95 Cobra convertible and is turning it into a super nasty fully forged, turbocharged Dart based 347 (expecting 650+ rwhp), AEM electronics w/ LS1 coils, backed up with a Viper-spec T56 and FULL MM Coilover suspension w/ torque arm and panhard bar. :drool:


Here's the starting pics.... This shit is like porn to me.

Here's yet another clean ass Cobra... This one is pretty subtle.

You'll have to look closely to see what was done because it was done so well.

Here's a hint in case you dont see what the difference is....

Sick swap. He used damn near everything from a 03/04 Cobra except the exterior.

Another one.... but not a 5.0 project. Super clean rio red car... and you know that will always catch my eye. Proves that those 96-98 cars are good for something afterall. :look: :laugh:

Full 03 interior, KB 2.8 blower. Nicely done. :nod:

I gotta hurry up and finish the Oinker so I can move on to the Cobra.

I know its not the rule... but for most people thats how they feel.

I loved all my foxes. But at this point I know I couldnt drive one daily. Even if its as clean my boy Eric's LX notch, I still couldn't do it.
