[cobracarlo]

Well I know its not SC but I do spend alot of time in bluffton and here recently in beaufort since the machine shop I use is there. I have a Black 98 cobra thats a work in progress. Currently under the knife and hopefully done early to mid march!

Im 29 and a public service worker here in Savannah.

why the switch from the centri to the roots?

[cobracarlo]

Well ive always wanted an 03 cobra but didnt wanna pay for it lol. This one is paid for now. Plus I have the stock gears in it and in order to really make the car move in a centri 98 you need 4.10's. With this setup I can keep the stock gears for now and maybe move up to 3.55's which help with gas mileage.

This car has been to the track 3 times, and it broke twice so its mainly a street car, it will never have a cage. So with the roots blower its setup for a little stoplight to stoplight fun :)

why the switch from the centri to the roots?

Because some people hate traction. Duh!

Oh yeah! Nice Mustang! Welcome!

Welcome. Nice looking Cobra.

[03SVTCOBRA]

That eaton is better than some of the centi blowers out there... of course there are some beast centri blowers also but for a 500ish hp car the roots is nice.

Thanks everyone. Yeah its just a street cruiser/ weekend toy.

[white99ta]

Welcome, what macine shop are you using in bft? The one next to beaufort cycles?

[cobracarlo]

Yeah its called B&T. So far they have done good work and have good prices also. Thanks everyone. And dont get me wrong I was Happy with my V-1 S-trim. Ive just always wanted a PD car. Plus its something a little different. I mean they are starting to get more common in the Sn-95's but I only know of one other guy in the area and he was in beaufort.
