I did a ton of research on this last year when I did my all out build. Very happy with the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX. Checked all the boxes of: sleek and functional interface, wireless CarPlay, app integration, and back up camera. It works with stock speakers but I will say the speakers need to be...
Cobra is running great. Drivability tuning completed. Very easy working with 04Sleeper. Here’s and updated picture with car lowered a bit more. The Gen5 3.0 is impressive, still getting used to the power.
They tore into the motor Feb. 25th and shipped the finished motor back June 14. When they opened the factory motor, they found more damage than anticipated. Parts hard to be ordered which at that time things took forever to get in. The time they actually spent working on it once they had...

Back in 2013-15 my car was eating alternators like candy. I found Nations and got one of theirs and never had a problem since. I was spinning it pretty good with a 2.93/4lb combo on ported blower. I did get the external regulated one and highly recommend it. It is on my Gen 5 3.0 with built...
Man it is looking great, hopefully they dial it in! Check out Harpell Auto fab for power steering tank and a few other engine bay things that can really clean things up further. Looking forward to hearing how your tuning session goes on it.
R888R's are nice. I went this time with MT ET Streets out back, will see how they do. Hopefully you can find R888R's, I think they have been on backorder for a long time.
You definitely will man and I hope to be in that group myself. My cobra is going to be finished here within the next couple weeks after being down for over 2 years. Low mile car going from stock motor/ ported blower to built motor by L&M/ 3.0 Whipple with all new fuel, rear end, cooling, etc...
