^ we need pics! The cobra intake looks great with the polished letters by the way

Thanks dude! I would have taken pics but it was about ten o'clock last night when I did everything and I don't get home from work until after dark so maybe this weekend!

Cobra Intake Detailed

Put one coat of nail polish on my intake lettering. Works pretty good! Hopefully it will hold up and I'm probably gonna put another coat on layer this evening.



Still waiting to get some more injectors and have it back on the road!

Also in a crazy turn of events in the last hour, I just put in an order for a brand new set of 24lb injectors! I was telling my dad that I had been looking for some used ones to get my car back on the road. He ask how much a new set was and when I told him he replied 'get em ordered and bring me the bill!' Couldn't be more thankful and couldn't ask for a better dad! I think he understands how much the car means to me though and I think he's grown to like it as much as I have so he wants to see it back on the road as much as I do! Hopefully they will be here by Saturday at least so I can get then replaced soon as possible.

Still waiting on injectors to get here. In the mean time today I took my FR500's to a friend's shop to have him paint them for me. Hopefully he will be able to get to them fairly soon then I can get some new rear tires and have them on! I just paid off my 08 F-150 so now I will have a little extra cash every month I can throw at the mustang.

Still waiting on UPS....

Also these came in yesterday. They won't go on til after it gets painted but it's just another piece to the puzzle!

Why'd u upgrade to 24lb injectors? All u have is a cobra intake, no?

Cobra intake and MAF, 65mm TB, 1.7 RR's. The e7's have had a little work done on them when the motor was rebuilt but that's about it, still has the stock cam. Hopefully pretty soon I'll be investing in a cam and some new heads so the 24lb'ers will already be there when I get everything else. Other than that they are just what came with that intake when I bought it, it's not hurting to run them is it?

Too bad I didn't get around to posting to for sale thread sooner, could have saved some money on some brand new FMS 24 lbers I'm not gonna be using anymore...

Glad to hear it's running good!
