Thanks guys!

Any ideas for a custom plate?

I had thought about "SINISTER" but wasn't sure if I totally liked it or not.

Jonathon,

I'm assuming that was your Cobra and you installed the KB on the car. Do you miss the boost at all? Sell your Cobra?

Just curious, I sold mine a few weeks ago and I'm beyond happy with the Z06, words can't describe. My Cobra was heavily modded mostly with chassis & suspension handling mods but she made 500HP. Mine was a coupe and even with $13K worth of mods didn't even come close to the Z06.

Before:



After:

Wow, nice car you got as well. That was my Cobra.
03 convertible, built motor, ported heads, cams, 2.2 Kenne Bell, full exhaust, solid axle,etc,etc,etc,.
It put down 630rwhp(sae). Ran it once at the track before I "built" the rear end. Launced easy around 3k rpms and went 11.1@129.
Sometimes I think I miss the instant tq from the blower, but the looks and feel of this new car more than make up for it, not to mention all the attention it draws driving it through town!
I honestly have no regrets!
