Thanks for info Roger!
Hmm, so Roush is working on the next Cobra. Interesting.

I guess the new thing is to subcontract work to more specialized companies. This seems to be happening with all car parts. Magna International is a good example (Galaxie, I'm sure you've heard/applied to them) They are probably more efficient and Ford doesn't need to invest in as much "in house" equipment & staff. I'm sure the SVT guys are working with the Roush guys though.

Look at MyColor.. it was developed by Delphi
I could go on for hours and hours about other parts developed by subcontractos
Dano, still waiting for my connections at Magna

I guess my answers lead to more questions lol.... I am going to see it again on sat and will try to get the diameter of the exhaust tips.... The cars sounds great on the video clips we have but didn't cut the mustard in real life. It was a full production model and is completely up to spec. There government rating isn't set yet but it is exactly like the production model. I heard more fan than i did exhaust. I did verify that there were only two cats right out of the header and no bricks after that.

I Have No Life
Roush has a history of working very closely with ford...
This is no surprise.
Yeah, the exhaust won't be quite as loud as say a Mach1/Bullitt, its a more mainstream car. Good, but not loud.
Aftermarket borla's fo sure
First SE (or package)
I see 18s, stripes, cover, etc
Purely cosmetic.
Make sure those launches go well...rather than rushing other models and troubleshooing ALL of them at once.
Glad you liked it.
People will like it, hate it, or hate it then like it
