you MIGHT see low 13s (most likely mid) with all those mods, given some nice tires that'll hook up.

welcome to the partay!

Well good news all i just picked up the car last night. I am very pleased with it. It is faster then i tought it would be. That could be to that i was driveing a neon before this. I do have a few questions about the car. I am guessing most of the issues are normal. I noticed you can hear the transmission gears wine when i start off in first and there is alot of road noise to. I think this is normal but i am not sure. The other is the car just had new brakes and rotors put on like 3 days ago. Now there is a grinding noise when driving like metal on metal. I know it is the brakes because i test drove the car the other day and it was fine. t started after the new brakes were installed. Also are there any other members that live close to Aberdeen MD. I would like to meet up with someone that is more knowlegeable then i on the cobra. Just to make sure everything is in good working order why there is still a warrenty on the car. Thanks

The transmission noise your hearing is most likely coming from the change in shifter I have the same shifter and I experience the same noise.
