Great video for new cobra owners!
Absolutely gorgeous car! I had a 96 cobra back in the day. 03-04 is my dream car. Hopefully I’ll have one after I finish flight school. You’ve got the best looking cobra I’ve ever seen! Nice job.
Thanks Thomas!
Very nice! Still my favorite 03 / 04 Cobra on youtube. The 04 Interior with the torch red is just perfect. Jaeger wrenching's comp orange is a close second though.
Thanks brother!
I bought my '03 convertible brand new from the factory to go with my '99 Cobra convertible. My only mods have been an MGW shifter, Maximum Motorsports IRS urethane bushings, 3.73 rear gears and a Centerforce clutch. I never thought that the clutch was too stiff to begin with, but I replaced mine at 80,000 miles while it still had some life left. I took off the silencer and put in a K&N filter and that has been it. I take it out east a couple of times a year and I like the stock exhaust because it is fairly quiet on the turnpike. It still runs great after all these years with no problems.
Can’t get enough of your cobra videos mayne 🔥 beautiful car
Thanks brother I really appreciate it!
Your video was awesome man. Informative and just great. I have an 04 slightly modded and need to know what to do next this helped a lot! Thank you
Thanks brother! Glad you enjoyed it!
Rode in my buddy’s cobra after it was built back in like 09, was pushing over 700hp when he was done, and he still had stock brakes, scariest ride I ever went on. Lot of people forget brakes as a upgrade and they are one of the most important things you can do once you start increasing hp.
Great video perfect mods and details on why you did them. Gives me some ideas for my Mach 1
Thanks brother! Very cool! I love Mach 1s. what color is yours?
Thanks for the informative video! Not a cobra owner yet but crossing my fingers i will be one within a month or so!
thanks for watching it! very cool!
Ass Muncher407 did you get it?
As usual, great video!
Thanks bro!
Thank you for the video Just picked up a 2004 Cobra 🐍!! This is very helpful
Very cool bro! Congrats!
KyleSVT thank you man ! Just ordered the BF pulley with the aux idler kit !
Just picked up a 2004 screaming yellow this week w/ 18k miles. It's stock except a cat back, MAF, tb, and 2.81 pulley. Definitely doing the FTBR bushings as soon as I can.
Very cool! Congrats! Your gonna love the bushings!
KyleSVT did you order your bushings directly from FTBR or did you get them through another source?
Bought them direct from FTBR
Great video. I also have a 2003 Cobra and I’m the first owner. I’m running flowmaster one chambers, high flow basssni x pipe, Steeda cold air, Steeda short throw shifter, Eibach springs.
Thank you!
These things still hold its resale value pretty well average cost of $20k for the 2003 and up.
Wish they were still 20k I’d be in one oh well swapping a 03 top end on a bullitt fuck it sra anyway
Excellent video thanks!!
Thanks for watching!
Awesome Video great mods.👍💪
thank you!
Great video thank you!
Thanks for watching
Very nice mods, I think they bring the car together well
Thank you!
love Your video's
Nice and clean dude
Thanks brother
Thumbs up over here 👍🏽
Thanks!
I did brushed metal, cool part is when someone is behind you the word cobra projects to the ground.
Nice dude!
Great video....just snagged a 2003!!!
Thank you! Very cool
Beautyful cobra 👌
Thanks brother!
Hey Kyle, very cool video. Funny I have a TJ and a Cobra as well. Can you link to the heavy duty Bilstein shocks you used? Thanks!
Thanks bro! Very cool! fulltiltboogieracing.com/1999-2004_Cobra_Suspension_Parts_and_Tools.htm
Great video
Thanks Josh!
I'd sell my soul just to sit in that car. 10/10
Beautiful car men
Thank you!
Mid pipe and idlers pullies are needed as well
Extreme grippy tires for a quick canyon run
My dad bought his 03 cobra brand new and he took it to a place called alternative performance and had the blower ported had nitrous put on it and some other stuff I don’t know about right now
I have the same set up but I have a whipple 2.9 and return style fuel system
One thing you did forgot is the cooling mod the rear cylinder heads drivers side and passengers side the stock cooling system doesn't get enough coolent 2 them and u slowly start losing compression..had to get my cylinder honed and new rings same thing happened to my father's we both have 03's
1st video I watch need to too subscribe .
You should've started out by suggesting to replace spark plugs with a colder plug, fuel filter replaced, bigger MAF, and check intercooler pumps function before upgrading the pulley or anything else....
On your clutch setup did you install an adjustable pivot stud? If so how much shorter did you make it from oem
Yes adjustable. I don't remeber sorry man
Hey bro can you put a mod list in the description or comments?? New sub by the way!!
Thanks for subscribing brother! Here is a video where I go over all the mods on the cobra ua-cam.com/video/qfRLg1fWIiE/v-deo.html
Wish you put a mods list in the description.
Hey Kyle, do you only have the front brakes upgraded? Thanks!
Hey Marlo! No I am now running an upgraded rear setup
Slick car! How much HP do you expect to push with the smaller pulley, proper tune? Stock Cobra's get just under 400HP, so I assume it's closer to 425 HP with those mods, if not more?
Again, slick car! You've clearly taken care of this vehicle. I have seen tons of Mustangs from this era in my area and most are in poor condition.
Thanks brother. With my mods I'm at 445hp and 462tq with pulley tune cai and catback exhaust
@@KyleSVT Nice! That's some real power, and you haven't exactly done anything to lessen life-span of the vehicle. Love the red and black! I like either that or White and Black. Rims really stand out on this vehicle, but in a good way.
Did you grind down your IRS bolt when you upgraded to 18" wheels?
yes sir!
I have a 03 cobra and if im not mistaken I noticed you have the 18in saleen rims on yours. Will the stock SVT center cap fit the saleen rims? If not how did you get the SVT center caps to fit yours. Thanks!
So I ordered my wheels from oe wheels and the center caps needed a little bit of dum dum putty to make them fit perfect
@@KyleSVT Thanks!
no problem!
Would you recommend an idler for a 2.8 pulley? If so a 90 mm or 100 mm?
Yea I probably would put an snub idler on it. Not sure on size tho
I have those same wheels in chrome, did you have to get yours powder coat or did they came like that
I ordered them in black
If I upgrade the pully will the engine be a risk since it’s making more boost?
Will I need engine mods before upping the boost
I would get a tune so it is safe
Alex Svt watched this
Where'd you get your blacked out badges?
ua-cam.com/video/XHeZQPHS_g8/v-deo.html
How much boost are you seeing with the 2.76?
Think I'm around 12-14psi
Hey Kyle. I’m 16 and in the market for a used car. I’m fixed on a Manual Mustang. And I found a Terminator Cobra. You think I should go for it??
Hey Gavin! If you can afford the cobra absolutely get it! You won't regret it
I mean I guess nothing wrong with age just please take really good care of it lol. When you get older you’ll appreciate the car and know that you’re buying a legendary piece of ford SVT history. I’m in the market for a black coupe as well. I’ve owned my GT for 8 years but I’ve always wanted a Cobra.
Bro what about an 01 cobra you think you can do a vid about that or na
Yea I have a buddy with one actally!
cat delete is a must. ang
Where u get auxiliary idler
I called billetflow and ordered over the phone
With the 2.76 supercharger pulley what size idler pulley did you go with? 100mm?
you talking about the snub idler?
Yea bro, I see they have a 90mm and a 100mm snub idler on American muscle
@@desiconcepts9095 mine is 100mm
Thank you for the info bro. I seriously picked up my 03 terminator vert after watching your videos. Great videos and awesome content!
@@desiconcepts9095 Thanks brother!
What size is the original pulley, not sure if mine was changed.
3.65
@@KyleSVT thanks dude
np!
How much have you spent on mods?
Around $8k worth of mods are on the car
What carbon fiber cold air intake is that?
JLT
can you send me a link to all the mods you did to the irs to stop the wheel hopping please

@@KyleSVT do you recommend me getting the entire kit?
yes
KyleSVT does this car ride smoother than a 2000 mustang gt
yes it sure does
@@KyleSVT I know the steering on my 2000 mustang gt when you make a sharp turn it won't glide back in your hand
How hard to do cooling mode
Not easy
Ever do the cooling mod?
Yea I may do it someday
Yea just an fyi ur back cylinders might get so hot it might burn ur valve seat. So yea i would deffinitly. I have a 04 mysticchrome cobra and that happend and it is mostly stock and that happend. U should deffinitly do it. It will save u alot of time and money
I never run the car hard enough for it to get that hot. Usually happens with wide open in 5th and 6th gears. The 04s have the revised heads as well so it's even more rare for that to happen
@@daltonhunter4049 If you aren't going to race it, the mod really isn't necessary. I tuned 100,00 mile in mine this year and have never had a problem.
@@daltonhunter4049 happened to mine with only 28k and I don't beat on it take it out on weekends never been to the track..it happens and some never realize it..its not that expensive and so worth it
I have the chrome metal inserts but had the black sticker inserts first..... don't get the metal they'll look funny lol
Yea I prefer the black vinyl
there’s a coupe dsg cobra for 16,500 if anyone’s in the vegas area and wants a cobra
Could you post a mod list with links?
I got most of my mods from my buddy at fulltiltboogieracing.com/
Step 1 I got to get a Cobra
First mod for a stock high mileage cobra? 140k
Catback Exhaust
Plug change, fuel filter change, check intercooler pumps function, and oil separator before you begin adding any go fast mods.
Tire>wheel
What's your HP
445
@@KyleSVT I have kind of your same mods, mine have 2.8 pulley, long tubes and borla catback, accufab single blade throttle and plenum, 4:10 gears, jlt CAI ram air, afco dual pass heat exchanger, I guess I'm somewhere around you hp numbers or more?
yea I would think right around there or a bit more
@@KyleSVT nice would see. My next mod have to be the IRS bushings but it will cost me a lot because I don't know how to do it and don't have the tools to do it.
its worth it trust me!
Heat exchanger with fans
Good one as well. Need to do mine
Subframe connectors is 1st mod especially in a vert
I cant belive ford let the verts leave the factory with the amount of power and the shitty chassis ! The bolt on factory subframe connectors are absolute shit ! Just had stifflers full length connectors installed huge difference now ! Great engine but shitty chassis im coming from an 08 vette z51 package so its a bit disappointing in the cobra next mod is front and rear strut braces .
Yea verts need a lot of help lol connectors really helped my coupe as well
