stock cobra what's the best upgrades for $1000

[denny03]

never posted was wondering what would be the best upgrades for $1000
I can't go too far still have the factory warranty trying to do mods without a
tuner any suggestions would be helpfull

 

[Tom's_03SVT]

Cold air intake, Catback, SFC and IRS brace.

 

[TomballGuy05]

I would probably do exhaust/intake...make it sound like a V8. Next step would be pulley/tune.

 

[yosemiddysam]

Agree with ^^^^^^^^^^^.

 

[denny03]

do you know anything about the safety mod like head cooling pcv filters things like that

 

[denny03]

also thinking about catless h pipe but worried about throwing a code dont know what that affects

 

[03cobra#694]

Agree with ^^^^^^^^^^^.

Agreed w/you,agreeing w/them.
Maybe some FLSFC and a IRS brace too.

 

[yosemiddysam]

If you get Mil eliminators it wont throw a code. I personally think the head cooling mod is crap. There has never been any proof of it helping/hurting. If you dont plan on driving your car 160+mph for an extended period of time then I think it is a waste of money. Now that is just my oppinion and I am sure there will be some that swear by it. I do not have any PVC filters and mine runs just fine.

Head cooling mod and catch can/filter can`t hurt.I have both.

also thinking about catless h pipe but worried about throwing a code dont know what that affects

You`ll get a cel when going catless.It wont hurt a thing if you can live w/the light.Most will get the rear O2`s turned off in the tune,that`s what I did.

 

[yosemiddysam]

You could do a pulley and tune, after the exhaust/intake and it will be a completely different animal.

 

[denny03]

do you have to do the boost bypass when you change pulleys

 

[denny03]

im likeing what you did to your mystichrome cobra any issues?

 

[yosemiddysam]

No issues at all. The Mysti is the wifes so it wont get any more go faster mods lol.

 

[yosemiddysam]

I just had a 75 wet shot installed on mine lol. Should hold me over until I get the 2.8H lol.

 

[denny03]

thanks alot for your help im adding you to friends
im goin shoppin

No you dont.

 

[yosemiddysam]

I think my tuner did the boost bypass through the tune. There is also some sort of vacuum line you can switch around. Do a search on here cause there have been tons of threads about it.

 

[evolve]

Get the Head mod and IRS brace. Cheap insurance. You could still afford a cat back as well.

Cat Back, CAI, Mid Pipe

That is just about all you can do on the stock tune. The warranty is nice, but I was glad when mine expired because that is when the fun started.

For $1000 I would do pulley,tune,FLSFC's.
