I would LOVE to slap a turbo on a 99 or 01 Cobra.

I'm in for the ride on this build!

I would love to see pics as I am considering putting this kit in my notch. Just want to see what kind of clearance there is. My engine bay is a little tighter, lol...

has anyone gone with the suspension kit on3 sells, im doing the install right now, k-member was cake but dealing with the cheap ass UPR products got me pretty pissed! all the grinding to get it to fit, then on top of the shock/ghetto strut setup it doesnt fit right if any has done this or is doing this that can chime in would be great. thanks guys

had to run some spacers because the pieces that sat ontop of the bearing hit the inside of the strut tower

I really have a hard time believing others that the kit is going on smooth, shit the first couple pipes rub like no other on the k-member (the horse shoe pipe). going to do some grinding, tube k's are weak to began with then we gotta hack it to fit this kit. not going to lie pretty pist!

Na man my car has never been in a wreck, the pipe hits on the inside and outside of my k-member(back driverside mount). I will try to post some pics tonight, going to work on it some more today.

BAD01COBRA- is you exhaust tight or still loose from the install.

just remember your motor moves unless you have solid mounts so thers a good chance its going to rattle from vibration of the motor, the powder coating might help so it doesnt rattle at first. :shrug:
