who agrees with this? ...sounds like the cheapest way ....i like cheap
I agree with this 100%. You're way better off with that intake than the strut tower brace. If you're going road racing, buy an aftermarket brace anyway.
Your options are simple....don't use an aftermarket intake....lose your factory brace....get an aftermarket brace that will clear an aftermarket intake.

94/95 Cobra intakes do not need an elbow adaptor
94/95 Corba intakes will not clear the strut tower brace, if you want one, then get a BBK or MAC that will allow for the clearance.
Great deal, GT-40 upper/lower combos sell for around $250-400, especailly the 94/95s which are hard as hell to find.

That's what I did. I wouldn't worry about it. I was pushing out a decent amount of rwhp without a strut tower brace and had absolutely no problems at all.
