What are you looking to get out of the car? If you want to improve your ET get some drag radials. That will help you more than anything else. If you want to gain HP, I would get the cheapest crank pulley you can get and maybe a SCT or Diablo chip.

BTW~I'd recommend a Pro 5.0 or Tri-Ax shifter, if you don't have one and lowering springs...

dude did you not get the lca vs IRS joke

99 and up IRS cobra's dont have UCA's or LCA's, because they have IRS

a real shitty kit for $400 new, plus u need more than just the nitrous kit

i say get a bigger throttle body and a short throw shifter

what size throttle body and will the hp increase be worth the money or is it mainly for more air flow. thanks.

air flow = hp

dont know on the size, but dont get a bbk or mac one, get an accufab

and either a steeda triax or pro5.0 shifter, both are great, i like the triax personally

ok, so i looked online and i decided to go with this set up triax shifter, steeda UD pulleys, and dual 52mm throttle body. that should run me about
430? thanks for the help. if any one can come up with a better set up please post. thanks for the help
