I am looking at doing the fallowing to my car but I want to make sure there isn’t anything else I will need to buy to get the performance I am looking for in my car, also, I do not want to damage the drive train, clutch, or anything else. I have a 2003 Mustang Cobra. Again, this car is stock other than flowmasters, so I need to make sure I don’t need anything else to make sure it runs properly. I will not be drag racing, just simply having some fun driving and maybe going to the track on occasion

Here are the mods I am looking at doing

Kenne Bell Products
9-24 PSI upgrade kit 2.2L $3799
2400 KG MASS Meter/5” cool air kit/Switch Chip/55# injectors $1242
Big Oval Throttle Body $359
Triple pillar $63
Boost Vacuum Gauge $55
Fuel Pressure Gauge $146
Temperature Gauge $68
Supercharger Pulley 15-17 $69


I also want to make sure I will not have to change the hood out from the stock one. Do I need anything else to make sure the car works properly other than a good tune afterwards? Also, can I use 93 octane with this combo. Any help you can be will most appreciated.

Heres a good deal on 60lb injectors...

http://www.rpmoutlet.com/03stacker.htm

The 60lb injectors have a better spray pattern and are cheaper right now then the 55lb injectors. WARNING: DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THEIR FUEL RAILS! You will also need harness adaptors and theirs should be fine.

You will not have to make any changes to the stock hood...
With a good tune you will be fine running 93 octane up to 17 psi, more then that I'd run a mix to be safe.

Good Luck and welcome to SVTP... :beer:

BTW, my buddy is selling his KB 2.2, for more info click here..

subframe connectors are always a good idea even before upgrading the power. These cars flex too much.

I would get the MM full length subframes instead of the steeda's but that's my own opinion but otherwise it looks like a good list

The irs brace will help you in not to destroy your rear end. Dunno what happened to the pics, but thier were a few of guys just destroying the rear end while running eatons, anyone with a KB or Whipple should have one, and they are only 165 now I think. Cheap insurance.

Yes it will fit depending on which CAI you go with but you really dont need it unless you go with coil-overs.
