    Maybe you did not know:
    2003 Cobra Terminator

    The 2002 Cobra Special was unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show in February 2002 as the 2003 Cobra. It was formerly referred to as the Cobra Terminator, but the Special Vehicle Team decided to drop it because it sounded too violent, and they didn't want to pay royalties to the movie franchise. Ford might use the "Terminator" moniker for the production version of the 2002 SuperCharged Cobra, but a Team Mustang source also noted that the "KR" for "King of the Road" name was proposed as well.

    I've believed that the number was a little inflated all along, it still runs pretty strong though. Previous owner's best trap was claimed 128mph, but I don't have the slips to prove or disprove that, plus he was a pretty mean shifter... the transmission needs a bit of massaging right now.:o

    The tune was a dyno tune, but I'll get a run in on another dyno at some point to verify the numbers and make sure everything is sitting pretty

    I appreciate you guys looking out for me though, I'd rather have you give me a hard time before something goes wrong than after everytime!!

    I forgot to post what really sold me on this car.....




    I've never seen an owner that took "detail day" to this type of extreme. regularly detailed the engine bay and paint, but even got under the car and detailed the underbody, the wheel wells, literally everything.

    Thats how this site was started, I had the idea of the Steel City Terminators club and PJ (Got Svt ) and I got the forum started over on Modular Fords and it evolved into me starting this site.

    Thank you! I'll be seeing you when the weather breaks for a FLSFC installation off of Nate's recommendation

    Do you do any transmission work? I have a couple of things that might need a little sorting out. I can list them if you'd like, but I won't be able to do anything about it until may, so its no rush.
