I would get a 03 Cobra....................
but seriously, I think the difference between the four and six is the longevity issue. Having raced the 03 Cobra side-by-side with a 2001 running a 4# custom tuned (Swanson) and a 2002 with a 6# setup, the difference just isn't great enough for a daily driver. Neither was able to pull away and the higher the speed, the closer in performance they got. If your going to spend lots of time at the track, then I guess more is better, but as a daily driver/street warrior why spin the blower that much faster? You'll just build heat the intercooler was not designed to handle, which means less usable power with increased wear/tear. Just my 2 cents.
Ultimately it's your money, Ray....Spend it wisely. Good luck.

Had A 4# for about 15k miles loved it just went to a 6# Its like having sex in the front seat,and you cant wipe off the smile.Just make SURE you put in some denso It22's or Ngk's my denso's have given me flawless performance.spend the extra 80 bucks to get good peace of mind.I think Iridium plugs are the cats ***

Thanks everyone.I think ill go with the 6 lb.I am not racing at all,(maybe once or twice to see what i get for a time ).Im looking for the best throttle response and insurance on being able to eliminate anybody who steps up on the street .I might put on 3k miles this year but when i take it out,I want it to be rocket fast.I just dont have the time anymotre and dont want the agrevation with warranty repairs.person who said "Had A 4# for about 15k miles loved it just went to a 6# Its like having sex in the front seat,and you cant wipe off the smile" made my decision.I wanted to know if there was a noticeble diffence in torque(this is where the seat f pants are) and it seems there is more than a little difference so 6lber it is.Thanks everyone.this thread reminds me of the good ol days on here

I'm running the ASP 2# and JL 6#. My beast isn't a daily driver, but I do give it hell when I drive it.

4lb Lower for me and a 2lb Upper
I run the 6lbs only in warmer weather
BTW
You will have absolutely
NO TRACTION AT ALL with 6lbs on the street.
You WILL NOT be able to floor your truck
in first gear period, end of story.
NOT from a roll, and surly NOT from a stop.
Figure you have @9 stock, then a good filter will add at least 2-3 more, then add another 6 AND HOLY MO FO
I'll probably run my 28" Hoosiers all Summer long on the street this yr with 6lbs + Juice
