Here is a link with the specs to the '03 Cobra. The '04's are identical.

havent checked out the link yet but i just read the '04 came with 390hp and '03 did not but could be acomplised with a simple pullie swap. so if there is a difference it is minimal and the '03 would be just fine. hey thanx for not being a dick to prove your point that seems like a common practice. point taken you are correct and i hope this guy dosent get pissed about the thread hijack. pics up next week shit we want 'em 10min. after she hits the driveway!

Nah, Dave's a good guy.

But I promise, the '03 came with 390 as well. In fact, most '03's are putting 390 to the ground bone stock. Just slightly underrated.

maybe it was a problem with ford releasing accurate #'s. but you would think they want them as high as possible. but there is alot of garbage on the net about power dif. between the years. wild shit you would think there would be a finer line. what is your .02 on the mystic color? i think i needs to be left to the ricers and 1980 cadillacs maybe an occational pontiac catalina.

I kind of like it, but I probably wouldn't buy one.

As for them underrating them, that is because of the '99 Cobra fiasco. They rated them at 320 but most people were only making somewhere around 250 to the wheels, so they had a major problem. I kind of like that they're underrated now, makes people think my car is slower then it is.

dyno my car and dyno an 04..you might want to research..the only difference is the exterior colors...and I want to see an 03 put down 390/390 stock b/c than I was 20 short!
