Default why buy 03-04 cobra??

i see people who buy 03-04 cobras and swap the s/c and to me that makes no sense? if you're going to do that why not just buy any cobra 99-02 and slap one on there? Wouldn't that be cheaper?

forged internals...plus the 03/04 is good up to 20+lbs of boost...i got my 03 for 17k and if i wanna put a kenne belle on it...for like3-5k...its gonna be hard to beat that performance for my money...plus its still holding its value like a vette...plus an 03/04 with 20+lbs of boost is pretty much a gt500 terminator

you can't put a kenne bell on a 99 cobra and boost 20 lbs and accomplish the same power? i thought the only difference between the 99-02 and the 03-04 is that the 03-04 comes with an eaton

I would rather have a Terminator over a Shelby anyday.

03/04 cobra comes with forged internals as well as the eaton
