Just get an 03 cobra and be done with it

you can find a 03/04 cobra motor for anywhere inbetween 6-9k. if you can find one on the lower end that comes with the ecu and wiring harness, along with the install will put you right around 10k. then you also have to worry about the tranny, so i'd say around 11-12k total.

yeah i would just upgrade to a 99-04 GT or even trade in ur car with the 10K for a mach 1 or at least a 2001 or so cobra.

pull the motor in favor of FRPP 351 or 460, they come from the manfuactuar with 350 to 550 horses.

i would just buy a twin turbo kit for it that would be like 5g's i think and then get some forged internals and u'd be set

Whatever you do to the engine, your going to have to upgrade the tranny and rear end. I would start at the rear and move forward. Your other option is to find a 96-98 Cobra and trade in your car with small down payment and own it free and clear. those cobras go for around 8-12k. Take the rest of the cash and add a blower with all the crap you need to get it running right and if you have any cash left over some control arms. You'll have a 400hp car.

pff, ten grand...all my parents did for me when I graduated was take me out to dinner. No matter what you decide, make sure you let your parents know how grateful you are. Ok enough sentimental crap, go get some boost!

used supercharger kit like a procharger or vortech (with aftercooler or a/a intercooler) and a built bottom end.

Save it. Putting that money into your car is a wasted investment. Pay of some of the bills from college....

But if you really have to spend it, buy an 03-04 Cobra motor and drop it in. That motor will make you sh** yourself the first time you stomp on it.

does it have to be spent on the car? seriously if i could turn back time id take my ten grand ive already spent, and invest towards a house or something. lucky bastard. crate motor+tk0600 or t56+suspension will spend ten grand no prob.
