[QUOTE="notchstang92, post: 16865508, member: 12153"] It's worth it depending on if you can buy a true complete kit. Worst part is having to grind the knock sensor mounts off in the intake valley. I did one and was happy with it. Never had any issues and it made 417/389 rwhp/rwtq at 11.7 AFR, 8#s of boost and 12* timing. Car had mid 400s for hp and low 400s for torque, but I wanted safe and reliable instead of a dyno number. Couple things to remember when doing the swap. You need to wire up your alternator plug to match the 03 cobra, you need to wire up your IAT1 harness to work with the IAT2 sensor. Our cars only have the IAT1, in the air intake, but you want to run the IAT2 sensor in the lower intake with an eaton swap as it's a better reading of intake temps. Would I do another one? Probably not. The cost has gone way up and some parts are getting harder and harder to find for it. Now I'd go with a used Procharger kit I think. It's much simpler to install and produces the same power. [/QUOTE]
