96' Cobra Vert

Spoke with Sam a bit ago and he knew the exact floaty/not completely firm feeling you're talking about and said it's definitely that the factory shocks/struts are underdampened. My Cobra had that same feeling for the first 3 years I owned it, then Sam set me up with the Koni Yellows (Sports) and even though it's been 2+ months since they went on I'm still amazed at the difference. http://www.tristatetuners.com/forum/...ad.php?t=82761

He also mentioned that negative camber will help big time (which also made a huge difference on my car) but your car doesn't have any adjustability on the tops of the struts so you'll need to get the Ford Racing camber bolts if you want to stay in FS for autocross or if you don't care about that you can get adjustable strut top mounts which will bump you into E Street Prepared.

i don't fully intend on sticking in that area, only because i do want to do a decent amount of work to the car over time... exhaust (duh its a mustang) which would put me in street prep, and eventually a supercharger... which dumps me into street mod, which i'm sure i'd be no match for. but that is down the line
Exhaust won't bump you out of F Stock but the supercharger certainly will

When something has foibles and won't handle perfectly, that gives it a particularly human quality as it makes mistakes. That's how we can build a relationship with a car that other people just won't get - Jeremy Clarkson
