Strut Tower braces and CAI, fitment

[simpman]

Search button is down. Quick I just ordered a Maximum Motorsport Strut Tower Brace

I have a UPR CAI. Do you think there will be fitment issues?

Must be a Mustang mystery.

What does the UPR fit like? In my 01 GT my densecharger wouldn't fit under the Maximum Motorsport strut tower.

I just spoke to Jason at MM the other day. I also have the UPR CAI and asked about fitment issues. He told me that unless I have the JLT upper hard pipe, there should be no problem.

A little bit of advice. Try asking questions before you purchase a product...I never understand why people dont research before ordering :shrug:

I didn't think there would be any problems but he mentioned that there may be fit problems for aftermarket CAI's and thats right after I pushed the button to purchase it. I just wanted to be extra sure you know. Before I tried to put it on. Thanks for your help.

Simpman,

Let us know how the install goes and what difference it makes. MM just released the STB for the 03-04 Cobra. Never heard great things about other STB's. Do you use any other MM chassis stiffening pieces?

I wouldn't imagine you would have a problem fitting your CAI under the brace.
