STRATEGY
In keeping with our goal of providing our customers with the best possible value, we have tested a large group of components specifically designed for the 03-04 Mustang COBRA.
We have invested many hours evaluating and refining each of the Cobra products on our chassis “dyno”, to ensure that we could develop as much power as possible, as safely as possible.
End result is our now available "Dyno Tuned Options".
Our site menu on the left side of this page, lists the clear winners when it comes to “performance vs. dollar” value. Please check back often as we are always developing new ways to create more horsepower.

AFCO PRO SERIES HEAT EXCHANGER ’03-’04 Ford Cobra
Why pay more for a COPYCAT heat exchanger when you can have the best for less!
COOLER INTAKE TEMPERATURES = MORE HORSEPOWER
Cooler intake temperatures mean more power. It is just that simple. However providing your engine with cool air to breath becomes even more difficult when forced induction is involved
Ford’s potent supercharged V8 is no exception. This is why ford designed a separate intercooling system for the supercharger on their popular F150 lightning and Cobra Mustang.
The ford system utilizes a heat exchanger mounted low in the front grill which is very similar to a small radiator. Coolant flows separate from the main engine cooling system and circulates internally through the intercooler beneath the supercharger.
While the factory supercharger cooling system is adequate in stock configuration, it struggles to keep up with the multitude of popular modifications that not only deliver more power, but also increase the stress to the intercooler system. To combat the power loss by excessive heat build up in the supercharger and intake system, AFCO focused on upgrading the weakest component of the cooling system. THE HEAT EXCHANGER.

AFCO NEW PRO SERIES HEAT EXCHANGER ’03-’04 Ford Cobra
 RPM Outlet is proud to announce the release of AFCO’s new Pro Series Heat Exchanger for the `03-`04 Ford Cobra
The AFCO Pro Series Heat Exchanger is significantly larger and built as a
DOUBLE PASS design. This new double pass design incorporates a 360 degree welded baffle to prevent any internal coolant bypass. The baffle forces coolant through the top half of the heat exchanger and then the bottom half, giving the heat exchanger the opportunity to dissipate heat twice. Using this unit provides a cooler, more stable coolant temperature to the intercooler even when the engine is being pushed to it’s limits. This provides more consistent performance on the street and lowers ET times at the strip.
The new AFCO Pro Series all aluminum heat exchanger core is over 28”. The larger size completely fills the void in the stock Ford Cobra grill opening and forces more air through the heat exchanger than any other heat exchanger on the market today. This design is a true bolt in performance upgrade–no modifications to the vehicle are necessary.

The Original
AFCO Heat Exchanger is the only heat exchanger available on the market that does not require ANY
modification to install. All AFCO Heat Exchangers are Furnace Brazed eliminating sealing problems and need the use of
epoxy on tanks. All AFCO Heat Exchangers utilize 16 Fins per Inch Core for more airflow to provide increased cooling.
Each AFCO Heat Exchangers Kit is individually designed for each vehicle to produce maximum efficiency,
performance, and come complete with and all the necessary hardware.
Installation time is ½ hour, and the only tools required are an 8mm wrench and a set of standard pliers.
AFCO is the only heat exchanger available on the market that does not require any cutting, drilling, or welding to install. Installation time is ½ hour, tools required 8mm wrench and a standard of standard plyers.

CANTON Aluminum Supercharger Surge Tank Upgrade Kit
|
The CANTON Aluminum Supercharger Surge Tank eliminates the factory supercharger surge tank and replaces it with a larger capacity storage reservoir that holds approximately
940% more storage volume over the stock Supercharger surge tank. The low volume stock surge tank arrangement can become quickly heat soaked in extreme duty or hard repeated acceleration applications.
Increased intercooler temperature reduction is now possible with this increased coolant volume. CANTONS Aluminum Supercharger Surge Tank simply mounts in factory battery
location and will require your battery to be relocated to rear of your vehicle. Relocate your battery to the trunk will improve traction and overall handling of your vehicle.
When tested on a 4-wheel digital scale it was found that moving a 35 pound battery from the left front of the car to the
right side of the trunk actually will put 60 pounds on the right rear tire - where you need it most for traction. Relocate your battery
to the trunk will also reduces "nose dive" during braking and noticeably improve the handling response.
|
 | |
Components required to
relocate the battery in the trunk can be purchased separately or can be purchased as part of our basic installation kit. Additional optional parts such as, NHRA legal disconnect switch, switch,
extended length rubber hoses, and hose clamps may be also required to complete the installation.

Hypertech 160° / 180° Low-Temperature Thermostat
|
- Increases Mass Flow Rate of Intake Air
- Allows Engine to Cool Down to Lower Temperature than Factory Thermostats
- Reduces Engine's Tendency to Detonate
- Reduces Temperature of Both the Incoming Air/Fuel Mixture and Combustion Chamber Surface
|
|
A Hypertech PowerStat low-temp thermostat improves performance
in two ways: first by increasing the mass flow rate of intake
air, and second by reducing the engine's tendency to detonate.
From the laws of physics, cooler air is denser than
warmer air. Since horsepower increases as the amount of air
and fuel burned increases, cooler air (with more air molecules
per cubic inch) makes more power. The
PowerStat allows the engine to cool down to a lower temperature
than the factory thermostat to make more power. At the drag races, water can be sprayed
on the radiator between races to drop the temperature and improve performance. The PowerStat ensures that you leave the line at the same temperature on each run to give consistent maximum performance for bracket racing.
|
|
Detonation, usually producing audible pinging or even knocking
sounds, refers to the spontaneous explosion of the unburned air/fuel
mixture in the combustion chamber. Detonation abruptly and violently
ends the normal combustion process, reduces power, and can severely
damage the engine. A PowerStat reduces the temperature of both
the incoming air/fuel mixture and the surfaces of the combustion
chamber, greatly reducing the tendency to detonate. This allows
the engine to safely develop more horsepower.
PowerStats should always be used in an engine controlled by a
computer to insure consistent performance. |
