03 CPE Turbo Cobra Update w/Pics

[Sneeks2nv]

well guys we are probably a week to ten days or so away from cranking her up and im very excited. here are a few more progress pics of my fuel system and oil system with oil cooler, thermostat, and oil distribution block. i went with the evans cooling system so all of this was necessary to make it work. there is alot going on in there i know, but itll be worth it and the work they are doing is awsome.let me know wha you guys think.

Looks good, the oiling system looks familiar to that of Postbans previous cobra.....

 

[TRBO VNM]

looking good..yeah, a lot going on there. hahaha

 

[Grey03Cobra]

Looking good so far. Is your battery box a Tupperware container?

 

[Sneeks2nv]

yeah i actually bought most of it from postban. so your correct on that. He had his mounted a little different, but then again i have that big ass filter and few other things. so we had to mount some of it a little different. Tupperware huh?...lol....no its actually a Moroso battery box. thanks guys

Who does that fuel setup there is a guy around here that has that done on his cobra also. I have seen it before but was interested in how it is setup.

Dude...........what do you really care? At this point, it's NOT a kit, it is a 1 off custom. This is the ONLY CPE out there.

 

[TRBO VNM]

wow, just looked again and saw everything that had to be cut on the drive inner fender.

I think everything looks awesome and I wouldn't hesitate to put it on my car..... that's for damn sure!

 

[Sneeks2nv]

sorry, in case some of u dont know i am in the military and was overseas last week. just got in, but i am going to go take a look at the car tomorrow sometime. before i left the ehaust was ganna get done. basically two 2.5" pipes coming from the down pipe, going by the a-arms and entering the bassani x-pipe. i will have electric cut-outs right infront of the front wheels, so i can dump it when im racing. ill take some more pics for you guys tomorrow. also the car is scheduled to be on the dyno on the 8th of december.


mixxer- unless you have something constructive to say or have a question to ask, keep the negative comments to yourself. its not your numbers and not your kit so, keep the jokes to yourself.

to everyone else thanks for the comments and support. i know ill be up and running shortly.....Luis

 

[mixxer]

RELAX I didnt say anything negative,in your original post it says 7-10 days from cranking it up. that was over a month ago.If you dont want people to post comments then dont make a post on an internet site and then cry about it! the kit your putting on your car was produced over 2 years ago, im just want to see what kind of #s it puts down compared to other kits , im just interested to see no negativity.good luck on the install and hopefully we will see some #s soon.

subscribing... I cant wait to see what this makes done right this time (I ****ed it up last time putting the 02 in the wrong spot)

This is the ultimate turbo for the cobra for sure. Definately One off. CPE just does vipers now besides the one off twin turbo cobra that is running around chicago......

good to see you getting her done luis! Whos going to tune it?

 

[Sneeks2nv]

well im ganna have Scott Beer tune it. Right now I am having the exhaust done. its definately a job to say the least. off the 5" down pipe im ganna have two 3" or 2.5" pipes coming off of it, under the A-arms and right behind the front tires i am putting two 2.5" cut-outs. the problem we are running into is the electric cut-outs(QTP) that I want on there is probably not going to clear(they are huge, a lot bigger than I thought). we will see when its done, but if worst comes to worst, ill just have to take the covers off manually. ill take some more pics after the weekend. sorry guys i have been really busy and I know we are all waiting on a number. but it takes time as you know. lmk your feedback or if there are any questions.

No worries, its the nature of leaving your car at a shop for others to work on. They have other projects and shit takes a long time. In all fairness I know Jon Lund has tuned a lot of turbo kits and might be someone to look into unless Scott Beer is close. Just get on their ass and get them to finish up the car, it doesn't take 1 month to finish up an exhaust system and I am guessing you are paying good money to have the car finished up. I am very interested in how this kit does, I have been following its progress since dubs first had it. It should make some badass power!

Go with dual 3'' exhaust if you can.

 

[TheHolyCobra]

That's a pretty nice diff cover you have there...what did that run you? 1000?

 

[Sneeks2nv]

i didnt pay full price for it. i got a great deal on it from someone who bought it originally and never used it. i think i paid right around $600 for it, give or take cant remember exactly. i do know it was more that $500 though. its a real nice piece and it was polished which made it look even better.

 

[dirty_canadian]

your definatly gonna want dual 3" exhaust and good flowing 3" mufflers with any high hp turbo car...
