Congrats, and beautiful Cobra! Black cobra's have grown on me a lot.

Enjoy the ride. When you can, swap the pulley to a 2.76 by Billetflow, with the 4 idlers, tune it, and sit back and relax.

Also, for the Certificate. Check out WWW.SVTREGISTRY.COM They are around 40-50 bucks. Good luck and enjoy!

Also where do you get the SVT certificate????? I never got one when i picked her up.

Also, besides the exhaust/springs, what would be some really good upgrades on the mustang (Bolt ons).
well that's no fun...oh well, i guess you've felt it now

mine does just fine in the rain, i've never had it get out of control on me, throttle control is key though, but they are fun in the rain...big open street+lots of throttle=sideways fun

You chose the right color my Fraind. Welcome to the "Mine is black" Club as I too own a black one. Cooling Mods should be done first before any engine upgrade. These cars run too hot, specially if you pulley it.

here's a link:

http://www.lethalperformance.com/pag...a-cooling.html

those are good mods to start out with. get used to the power it has now and be happy with it. Most people that buy these cars end up adding more power without being able to control it. Thus, one less 03 or 04 on the street. My mods are in my sig, welcome to the fam.

edit: once you pulley it, make sure you get it dyno tuned or data logged by someone who knows what they are doing.

Lol, Southern Cal FTW. That's how you get a high mileage Cobie. Rain is the worst we get.
