2003 RedFire Metallic Cobra Coupe

NightHawk756 · 10-21-2007, 08:56 PM

Bought on 09-08-2007 with 8,000 miles on it. Bone stock like Joseph's when he bought it...tires, paper filter and all.

Mid October 2007 installed a Steeda Cat Back.

Dynoed at Walker Dynotune on 10/21/2007
Made 395hp/386tq
Made 405hp/390tq with the air filter removed.

Steeda Cat back....

Nice! It made only a few less hp and more torque than mine did with an intake and catback.

Nice numbers. How far do you plan on going with mods for it?

Thanks brother! I was pleasantly surprised for sure.

On a side note.....when do you think a Mafia is necessary Joseph??

Thanks. As far as mods go......my goal for the car is exactly like Joseph's. Keep it a street driven car but with respectable numbers. I've gone way too far in the past with my cars and I'm trying to stay a little more grounded with this one.

I already have a JLT true cold air, billetflow 2.76/2.93 uppers and 4 billetflow idlers in the mail for it. Then I'll get the new SCT tuner for it and that will be my next trip to the dyno. Plans behind that are an IRS brace, upgraded heat exchanger, HID's, 10.5" rear stockers, H&R race springs and maybe a mid-pipe.

You should be fine with a 2.76" upper with an unported blower. If you go any further, you'll need one.

Yeah an irs brace is a must imo. I'm going to be selling my ported blower in about a month if your intersted in it.

I'll consider it. But I'm going to try and keep from going that far with it. Big emphasis on "try".
