The car has 108,000 miles on it. New motor and turbo setup has 3500 miles on it. Car was dynoed and tuned by Kevin at Performance Autosport in Richmond, Va. Car made over 600 rwhp on only 15lbs. on conservative 93 tune. On the way home from getting it tuned (4 hr. drive) I got 26 mpg.
Did yall catch that 600+ SAE corrected rwhp and 26 mpg!

IMO the car is an awesome street car. While cruising it is no different than a stock 97 cobra (tame and quiet). When you put your foot in it, it turns into a beast (quick and loud).

Only negative about the car is that it needs a paint job. This is why my asking price is lower than similar TT Cobra builds.

Reason I am thinking of selling is that I just got married and could use this money on a down payment. (Good time to buy a house right now)

Asking price is $25,000 obo.

You can contact me by either reply
on this thread or shoot me a PM.
Thanks for taking a look and your reply's.
I can post more pics upon request. This is just what I have right now.



Took fog lights out to allow more air to the area of the turbos.

Good luck with the sale! This is a very strong street car, extremely responsive with the twins and great driveability as well. 26mpg, dang!
