Add-on/in Journal
1 FEB 02: Just had the Sony CDX-CA850X Head Unit installed. It's amazing what a new head unit will do for a system!
23 APR 02: Ok, I've add 2 - 10" Bazooka subs, the Bazooka EL1500 600watt amp, with Monster Cables. All in custom enclosures. (I know they're not the best, but I couldn't beat the price...just temp and besides, they still kick hard)
24 JUN 02: The Altezza G1 Chrome Taillights are installed. Running Straight Pipes - Exhaust. Finally, the Bilstein Shocks, Struts have arrived. Should be installed by this weekend..Hopefully.
7 July 02: The Bilstein Shocks/Struts have been installed. Only took my boy and I 2 hours. Not bad for a first timer. There is a 200% improvement in the ride. Well worth the $500.
1 Sept 02: Put my pony back onto the grill mount. Also, installed lights behind each hood scoop.
5 OCT 02: Magnapack catback system has arrived, will be installing it early next week. I'll let you all know how it sounds and tell you if there's a SOTP difference. I'm also gonna try to get some updated pix.
8 OCT 02: Installed the Magnapack CatBack system...OMG, what a difference. The torque increase is awesome. Well made system. Only took me three hours to install. Sounds good. Not as loud as my straight pipes, but it does sound good.

See the Dual Ram Air? Pain in the Arse to route that. 5" duct all the way through to the K&N airfilter. If you can't see it, I ran it from the stock foglight openings to the airfilter.

Well, it happened. Death of the Cobra
Because of some A$$hole that cut across 4 lanes of heavy traffic IN SNOW causing a 6+ vehicle(some just drove away) wreck, my Cobra is no more.
Declared Totaled. At least my insurance company paid me $3K over what I owed(which is also about what the car was really worth on the market).
