if you're tight on money -- keep your eyes on svtperformance.. and ebay - you can find good deals. I got my xcal2 for 150 bucks shipped (new 379), an intake for 75 bucks (retail 200+), and catback/midpipe combo used for 300 bucks shipped... some good deals out there on used parts.. just have to watch what you're buying make sure it's 100%...
Thanks man 4 the harsh words of wisdom...I really dont want to do a whole lot to her anyway, I have not and will not ever race her...I just want to keep her clean with a few tasteful mods. I clean it all the time and it has a clean motor..I recently took it to a car show and I was not even in the show but decided to pop the hood.. Tons of people were eyeballing it..It just made me feel good..Thanks McCloud for ripping me a new one and getting my head straight
no racing? imo waste of a car to me... shoulda bought a mercedes instead... gib me c0bra plz.

I bought a goldfish, named it after my ex-girlfriend, and let it die. It's really the little things in life.
I bought that bundle, and subtituted the inlet tube for extra pulleys, and I chose to get the livewire program. Depending on what you want for your car it may be worth it. I wanted the Livewire, which is like 550-600$, and the pulley $75, Accufab TB $500, Plenum (?). So just that it saved me money. However their service was absolutley horrible. Everything was wrong. I ordered in March, and got most of my stuff in early May, and the forgot to send my plenum. I had to keep bothering them, and they finally sent it in July. The ignition COP that they gave me were bad. I tried to return them and they said no because its electrical. I told them I put them in my car and my car just died from them, and then I put my stock parts back in and it fired right up. My buddy that is a mechanic was helping me with them, and he told me they were bad. RPM outlet said there is no way to take it back. I am becoming an attorney, and I told them that I will take them to the next step even though I wont get anything from it. I want them to learn from treating customers horribly. I asked them if you cant return anything electrical what is to keep them from selling bad parts, and then just saying sory you put it in your car, so there is no more warranty. That really pissed me off. I asked them so how are you supposed to see if they are good without testing them, and they said you can't I just have to trust they gave me good parts. They are a horrible company. They still owe me a mount for my programmer. It's a toss up for the package. You will save money for sure, but you better stay on it, otherwise you may end up like myself, and I'd tell them what happend to me with the COP and ask them what you should do, so you don't get stuck with bad parts too. As far as power from them. My 03 cobra only had done a heat exchanger, and a magnaflow mufler, and it dyno'd 414 to the wheels and 380 TQ. I just put all that in minus the COP, and added X-Pipes, and JLT CAI, and I just dyno'd today with a tune at 458HP and 480Tq. They said that I could get quite a bit more but my fuel system is completely used up, so I have to get the Kenne Bell boost a pump and 60 lb. injectors to be able to get back what I'm missing out on. They said I should be around just under 500HP and 510 Tq give or take a little, but as far as seeing the 125 hp they claim obviously that is a bunch of crap. They must hav taken every single part and dyno'd it from a stock cobra, but when you put them all together you only get so much. For instance you get 27 Hp proven with my JLT and 25Hp with the accufab TB, and should be about 10 Hp per Lb. of boost and I got 7lbs. form the pulley in that package, but when you put all three together you only get like half or so because they all get dyno'd serperately. I'm sure there are plenty of other people that will tell you that you aren't going to see the HP that all the companies say you will unless that is the only part you are doing and have everything else stock like they did when they dyno'd their vehicle. I hope this helps, but be prepared to deal with a bunch of morons.
You are not a BAP and injectors away from 500rwhp.. the mods in that package would put you around 460rwhp or so.. you're not going to come CLOSE to 500rwhp without a ported blower.. sorry to say. They don't know what they're talking about.
