Re: Help, what to do?
Michael,
I'd personally wait for the '06 Cobra. The '03 Cobras has cylinder head
issues apparently (silent recall). I don't really like buying cars new for
that specific reason. I never know if something's wrong. I'm actually
looking around for a 98 Cobra. I'm about to sell my 98 GT after I fix a few
problems with it (old age).

Mike,
Just my .02 worth.. if you're looking for a Cobra in this body style, go for
one with the 5.0 - 94-95
Tougher engine for serious mods.

A 1998 has old age problems? Sheesh. I'm just starting to fix old age
problems on an '87.

Mike, congrats. Many here are jealous, even if they don't admit it. ;-)
I'd love an '03, but I can't justify the payments. My '97's doing just
fine.... when the weak T-45 dies, it'll get a T-56 setup from an '03. When
the DOHC finally goes (whenever that might be), I'll replace it with
whatever's out there at the time.
Kate... your '98's "worn out?" A lil hard on Shug, aren't ya? ;-)

Re: Help, what to do?
Thanks, been wanting a Cobra for many years and a supercharged Mustang since
back in '88. Now I need to save those pennies for a new Tri-Ax. My K&N is
getting cleaned and installed in the next few days, it's 5 yrs old and this
will be the 3rd Mustang it's resided in.

Re: Help, what to do?
I couldn't justify the payments either but... I've always wanted a
supercharged Mustang and a Cobra is the next best thing. Just kidding, I've
wanted a Cobra for a long while now.

In order to avoid the whole K&N filter vs paper filter thread all
over again, I recommend going to a cold air induction system. Moroso
makes a good, affordable one.
