So if I put type r badges on civic it becomes a type r? I like the stang but why do you call it a cobra when it's not.

I think this white one is a cobra........most people wouldn't bother putting irs in place of the stock live axle on a v6......

Well it is a 2001 Ford SVT Cobra which I know is difficult for some of you to understand that not all cobra are 2003/2004 Terminator cobras. There are 1994,1995, 5.0 cobras , then their are 1996-1998 cobras which are 4.6 dohc N/A, 1999-2001 (IRS) Cobra's 4.6 Dohc N/A, then there are 2003/04 (IRS) Cobras that are 4.6 Dohc with a supercharger.

Then there are 1993 Cobra which are foxbodys with a 5.0 N/A pushrod

Also throw in some True R models that actually see a race track, but most end up in some old guys collection with dry seals.

1993 Cobra R's 5.0 N/A
1995 Cobra R 5.8 N/A
2000 Cobra R's 5.4 Dohc with an IRS

Yes it is a 2001 Cobra with a Mach 1 hood, with eaton supercharger from a 03/04 cobra.

sorry reading owns me. When I read v6 hood, I was thinking it was a v6. So I was thinking you where putting cobra badges on a v6. I was getting ready to call you a ricer. lol

No idea why I thought that... sorry

No problem, 99-01 Cobras actually have the 2002-2004 mustang V6 hood, same spoiler, same side scoops, and same rear bumper cover except it says Cobra. Crazy enough I am contemplating swapping the rear bumper to a V6 mustang with no exhaust outlets, spoiler delete trunk lid, putting the V6/cobra hood back on and debadge it. Make it a sleeper, then have down pipes put on the exhaust like a '88-93 GT. The IRS exhaust under the IRS would be the only give away its a cobra.

Hopefully it is much quieter with the prochamber which acts like additional muffler.
