New Toy!

[pop's stang]

So my wife and I are the proud new owners of this 2004 Mystichrome Ford Mustang Cobra. Got such a great deal we could not pass it up. Only 25,000 miles. The car is already modified with the following:

Bassaini “H” pipe
Borla Exhaust
Saleen Rims with Nitto Drag Slicks
SCT Model BA2400 Mass Air Sensor
Big Air Cold Air intake
ACCUFAB Throttle Body
Smaller Pulleys
Maximum Motorsports Street Suspension
Bilstein Coilovers
Fluidyne Heat Exchanger
Speedster Roadster Painted Tonneau Cover
Styling Bar


It has a few paint chips here and there but I’m hoping that they will buff out. It also came with Lambo doors which I’m not sure I like, but other than that we could not be happier with our purchase.

[Stangman701]

Best color evah. The more you look at it the better it is.

[Dickbag 5.h0]

Sharp looking car, love the Mystichrome Terminators!

I have an accessory idler bracket and pulley that I'll be selling if you're in the market. Mounts next to the blower pulley for more belt wrap and less slippage.

I was going to recommend one of those when I saw the engine bay. It would definitely help prevent belt slip on this setup

very cool color congrats

Nice buy! I have a bunch of stuff for an 03 04 cobra if you are interested in upgrading. Cosmetic stuff and power adder stuff. Blower, exhaust etc

The guy that sold me the car said he put on a smaller belt and has the trencher max out. I’m new to owning a car with a supercharger. I found pictures from the first owner and it looks like he had that accessory pulley and bracket on. Thanks for letting me know. It’s nice to have a group here to make suggestions to novice like me. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190212/c0b4abb5cc85eee81f9de0fcd7ae0543.jpg

If I put that pulley back on would I need to replace the belt as well?

Where did this cobra come from? Do you paper work on it or tune information, maybe a handheld.

Very nice. Almost makes me miss my white 03.

Got the car in Georgia. No info or handheld. Car was turned at Injected Engineering in North Atlanta.

It's possible you could need a longer belt if you add the auxiliary idler. Kinda just have to check and see. If the belt size was spot on to begin with then you'd likely need to get a longer one. This chart is a pretty good resource for belt sizes if you end up needing one... https://stangshiftergaskets.com/belt_length_chart.htm

Sucks you didn't get the tuner with the car, but if it was tuned by Injected then it should be a good tune. They're a pretty reputable shop.

Send me a list of what you have.

You would probably need a belt that is around an inch longer if you install the auxillary idler.

I would be interested. Could you send me a picture and a price please?

[Dickbag 5.h0]

Sure can. I'll snap a few when I get home this evening.

[07v6vista]

Nice Car!

[Dickbag 5.h0]

Here's a few pics of the idler. Its a billet Motoblue Gen 2 with mounting hardware. Same one that's pictured on the first page of this thread. Looking to get $75 shipped for it.

Gorgeous car. Always wanted one of these.

[gvonly84]

It's lovely!

[pop's stang]

I’m glad to be picking up the Cobra. There were a few issues. The past owner had the check engine light turned off. So I didn’t realize that I had a bad fuel pump. So, new fuel pump, new pulleys and belt, new throttle body, new spark plugs and dyno tuned. 442hp/479tq.

Nice numbers and that shop looks familiar. :-)

[Terminated]

I wouldn't mind taking mine down there to have it gone over and cleaned up, maybe even a pulley and tune???

I think I saw you in West Newton over this past summer, running with another Mustang. I was out on the bike trail and I never mistake the sound of a Terminator.

I’m sure that was me. I live in West Newton. We are really enjoying this Mustang. Can’t say I miss my 68 that much.

Looks great!

[Terminated]

Nice, the car sounded great, maybe we'll have to link up and cruise next spring/summer. I have a set of smoked headlights that would have been OEM on the 03/04, if you were interested. They're repops but good quality and no water issues. I went to a smoked clear corner lens so no longer needed.
