And a pretty good place to find used parts like that would either be on here, a mustang forum, or EBAY.

P.S. I might be sounding stupid by saying this but, how can you have a CAI, AND, an intake off a cobra? I just dont understand...
Keep in mind, he has three black marks against him from the start.
1, auto
2, vert
3, heavy SN95 body style.

Stock that car is going to run probably mid 15's with a good driver.

The mods he listed are great starters, just not enough to push that car into the 13's. A properly selected stall converter, 3.73's and shift kit will definitely help in acceleration, and will help him break into the 14's for sure.

Then there's the potential hp mods. The biggest one will be the complete exhaust freeing up the most hp then the others listed. Pulleys will free up a few more pony's, but nothing noticeable. CAI, won't do a damn thing! And a Cobra intake, may add a few more horses, but it won't be too much with the rest of the induction still stock.

A Cobra intake manifold is pretty much just a swap from the original. It will flow a little better. A CAI (cold air intake) attaches to the manifold and to the air filter. It's supposed to pull a cooler air in from outside the engine bay though the fender well. It basically does the same thing as the stock air box inlet pipe, but just looks better then stock.
