Go with JLT inttake with 12" air filter, billet flow idlers, Stiegmier stage III port/polish blower, 2.76 or 2.81 blower pulley, catback, Xpipe(depends on what you like sound wise, cats or no cats), MAFia or perhaps a SCT2400 airflow meter, kenne bell boost-a-pump, may need to upgrade fuel injectors, and a tune then call it a day! with that setup you should be lil over 500rwhp, throw on a 2lbs lower pulley on there and have close to 515-520rwhp!

Didnt know they sold after market intercoolers for the 03/04 cobra, seeing its underneath the blower an all [Confused]

If you swap out the heat exchanger that is in the front bumper area, that helps out with eliminating some of the heat soak. I am running a Fluidyne one myself.
