today i said goodbye to the little white contour. i went to greenway ford and purchased a 1999 Red Mustang Cobra with 19,271 mi on itfor $23,999 , put 5000$ and traded my contour. i pay 247 a month. The car came with a chip installed, and it hauls. cant wait till i see the car insurance bill. car has alot more pep then the little 4 cyl smile happy with it, until my dad comes home and beats my ass with a stick.

Cool! If I might ask, who built your motor? Check for the builders' signatures on the plaque on the passenger side (I think) valve cover. I assume it has the fix already? BTW, what kind of chip is on it? Jet? Supersh1t? Kinda weird that it would only have a chip on it, as that's the weakest upgrade for a 99 Cobra.

Yeah, that is odd. Perhaps the previous owner had other mods installed and left the chip in since it was burned specifically for his car? Or perhaps the prev owner just forgot to take out the chip?

no im not leaving, the name is on the first box says RPM and the second is Charles something. it just said it has a PCM Reprograming on the sticker in the hood. the strut braces i made were made by my dad out of some metal with welded loops on em and painted white. i guess they'd fit.. $20?? yeah i think it was weird on the car but its also got a "cell phone holder" that i took off earlier. sheesh the car takes 7quarts of oil smirk i thought at least it'd have pulleys on it or somthing.. nope frown im taking it out on friday night when i go with my dad to Orlando Speed World, ill post some times of my times of me and my dad driving it and me and my dad driving his truck.

If the PCM Reprogramming sticker is blue and white, it is a Ford sticker stating the PCM was reprogrammed by a dealer.

did the strut braces add any suspension stiffening? Do they look good? If so, then I'll take em. You can post about this on the Florida branch if you want. Thanks, Alan
