mustang chris - you asked for it, you got it
Quick background. I've own my 95 cobra since 2000. its has afr 165 heads a mild cam, left stock intake due to funds at the time, shorty headers, o/r h pipe, magnapack cat back, aluminum drive shaft, 3:73 gears, tokicos with h&r springs, and a short shifter i think from steeda not too sure and an aftermarket MAF.
its black with saddle interior.
around 2004-05 when the turbos setups started to come out in full force, my dumb ass dropped all i had on a HP turbo kit. I happen to be one of the guys to actually get their kit when i was told i would. the only thing i didn't get was the new lines fro the a/c that they said i would get cause customers were breaking the existing one trying to bend them out of the way.
turbo kit sat in bins for the next 3-4 years. along the way i also bought a AEM plug & play. So around 08-09 i was getting ready to get the turbo kit in. I already knew that the smog & a/c all had to come out and while i was at it i wanted to do a wire tuck in the engine bay. I got all of the smog stuff out along with the a/c stuff, cut the acc brackets for more room. i end up getting the harness all out & started to hide or tuck when the divorce from hell fell on my lap. So it sat like that for some time. also while i was ripping stuff out i happen to come across a typhoon intake that had a stripped mounting hole on the lower intake where the upper mounts to. Got it on the cheap, and the local machine shop a couple of doors over fixed it for nothing. well first he wanted to charge me $20, then he realized that when it would snow i would clean the front of his shop with my snow blower. he actually paid me to fix it cause i got a free beer to drink while he fixed it.
Anyways divorce from hell, that dragged on for almost 2 years pretty much clearing out everything i worked for, for half of my life. then if that wasn't enough i lost almost 70% of my income. so much fun i tell you.
So i'm tired of seeing it on jack stands, and i really do miss driving it.
So here she is, in all of her jack stand racing glory.
I'm going to need a lot of help getting humpty dumpty back together. not only cause there's a good amount to do, just cause i'm about as useful as a wet paper bag in a shit bagging competition. so prepare for a metric ton of stupid questions.
in the last couple of weeks i did get some stuff done.
I got the typhoon in take on, did the vacuum lines, put the rad and coolant res back in, acc brackets and acc like alt and power steering back on. figured on what shorter belt i needed and got that installed.
i will get some more pics up in the next couple of days.
the most trouble i'm finding is getting things reconnected after the wire tuck. my maf harness barely comes out from the fender and there was some other thing that just didn't work out. So i'm about to get the headlights & panel out again & start back under the pass fender and start disconnecting & labeling. get the whole harness out all the way to the connection in the driver side fender and start all over. this time i plan on keeping the fuse box in the stock location & from there go into the fender and tuck what i can
hopefully, soon i will have more progress to update along with pictures.
