The shifter,exhaust that keeps that mustang sound, lowering height with 17'' rims, and intake! if you have any other suggestions they would be well appreciated. Post pictures if you have a 2001 cobra i also needed ideas need some ideas as well.

For those that are wondering, gears do make your car faster. Not by much, but it does lower your 1/4 mile times, by like a tenth of a second or so.

a tenth of a second?????

if you spend money on gears and you have a cobra... of any year... get 4.10's or 4.30's. otherwise dont waste your money.

and you should see a difference of about .5 seconds... easily... with dr's... it should be about a whole second

I wouldn't say wasting your money. I am pleased with my 3.90s after all, it is my daily driver. Granted 4.10s or 4.30s would be quicker but I guess it just depends on what you want. You wanted pictures... best-mods-2001-cobra-051307_15252.jpg best-mods-2001-cobra-051307_15232.jpg Its a 99, but close enough.
