Throwing boost on the stock engine is fine, and yea, he should be able to take down STOCK 03/04 cobras but you can throw like 1k into the cobra and butt rape the GT

Ive put a lot of money in my GT, yea its fast, but I would rather have put a down payment on a 03 cobra.

He didn't ask what car you think he should buy, he said he wants an 03/04 cobra and wants help finding one, and what to look for.

If you're dead set on buying from a dealership, then go for it. I personally would look at SVTPerformance.com in their market section, they have a LOT of people selling Cobras on there. The price on them is coming down, for 23k you could have a built 600rwhp car, that's for sure.

Unless you're dead set on doing the work yourself, you're going to save a lot of money by getting one already built. Just take your time, look it over well, have a mechanic look at it, and go from there. Good luck, and props at owning your own house.
