Default Possible '03 zinc HELP

Hey ive been scrolling for days through the forums and decided to jump on cause a lot of people seem to have good advice...i found this cobra http://www.diamondmotorworks.com/det...d-6680331.html
and wanted to know what yall think...I called for kb size etc and they dont have accurate parts list but i think the price is AWESOME...anyone think this might be a weird purchase or something just doesnt strike them right?

price is ok, im curious why they used 55lb injectors over the more popular 60lb or even 63lb. Yellow isnt my favorite color but its hard to be picky when they are nearly brand new at this stage. Low mile cobras that are heavily moded ( i consider any twin screw pretty heavily moded) are nearly all gone. Tho you can probably find closer to stock ones on ebay from time to time, slightly cheaper, if you plan to mod it anyways it will cost you more in the long run to snag a stock one than one thats already done.

not bad for it to mod early really. Tons of people have high boost applications on brand new built motors. The head tick is noticable, you will be able to tell for sure when its running. with the twin screw your gonna need to check if it has a irs brace at the very least. And since its a vert, subframe connectors are a must. Also depending on the hp its putting out, you may need just a Boost a pump to go any further, or even a new system if your planned to up the boost alot. The car is a tank... even a beat on cobra with that many miles should be fine for many many more miles as long as the new owner takes care of it.
