Had MM coil-overs installed....also had 9/16 bolts put in the front IRS mount...Cobra "clunk" is pretty much gone and car feels much tighter. I may raise the car back up a little after the springs settle. before and after photo below

Cleared the garage and laid out the mods I'll be doing, along with a few other things.

-BF 2.76" upper
-BF Idler kit
-HD belt
-NGK TR6 plugs
-FRP 60lb Injectors
-Accufab DP h/e (I'll probably paint the "COBRA" a dark red)
-ba2600 maf

Despite being on my deathbed Saturday evening and all Sunday, I was able to install a 2.76 pulley, NGK-TR6 plugs along with a 2600 maf. The base tune has been installed and awaiting a revision tune to be sent. I can't wait to see for myself the difference between this and stock is

Nice! It's a considerable step up over stock....you will be surprised at the TQ hit when you punch it. You probably have already done it...but make sure you have all the factory idlers swapped out because they're prone to explode

Thanks, I'm dying to get the tune sent to me. I swapped out the idlers as well. I have an accufab sbtb lying around too. Worth putting it on or would it make the driveability suck?

I doubt it's a significant hp/tq difference until you go to an aftermarket blower and really spin it 20+psi......so, that might be a reason not to swap it. I'm sure drivability wise it can be made to "work".....but ask your tuner to be sure and get their opinion. Definitely don't swap it after it's been tuned, you would need to let him know before

The mod bug has bitten me on this car now. I'll have a VMP on it when things settle down and I have time to do it.

I would definitely put your sbtb on you won’t be disappointed. I basically have the same setup as you and added my Accufab sbtb and plenum well after my tune was installed and couldn’t be happier. I did check with my tuner before I put it on and he said nothing would have to be changed to the tune. Throttle response is night and day and no idle issues what so ever. Idles like it’s stock

I have the Accufab set up on mine. I did have to adjust the throttle stop to get rid of the sticky throttle and I adjust the arm to make the cruise control work. It works fine and throttle response is nice. I've had more than one person make a comment about how fast it revs.
