2003 Mustang Cobra convertible getting e-level setup!

[Fastphil]

Seeing this laid out on air would complete me.

this will be really fucking dope once you get it aired out. and agreed comp cams and mammoth kb sc haha but sick car!

Thanks guys, I think it's gonna look killer too. I don't have any plans to up the power on the car. I've thought about doing the cams, but I realized I just wanted them for the lopey idle. Any blower upgrade would be beyond necessary, since the car is already fast and powerful enough. The only further plan I have is to put slightly wider tires on the rear once these are used up. To do that, I will really have to roll the fenders properly.

Hey, I gotta keep interest somehow! It'll be 3 more weeks before I can start the install!

Alright, I've got an actual update this time. I went to pick up my air suspension kit today, and I opened up a few of the boxes to see what I got myself into. I didn't have time to open it all up, but I went through the Accuair parts. The packaging was top notch, using quality materials. You know you're getting good stuff when even the ziplock baggies are high quality! I took pictures of the unpacking just because I'm trying to enjoy this project from start to finish. I don't know if pictures of boxes are all that interesting, but I'll post them all up anyways.

Five gallon black-anodized aluminum air tank:


3/8" air line:


VU4 manifold:




70 Amp wiring kit for the compressors:




Air tank fittings and water trap:




The main event, the e-level setup:







e-level CPU and black-anodized touchpad:


Dual Chromed Viair 400C compressors:



That's all I've got for now. If I don't get called in to work tomorrow morning, I'll unpack some more. There's still the compressors to check out, as well as the Ridetech bags and plates. I haven't even installed anything yet, but I have a feeling things will go well.

My kit arrived yesterday, so I'm going down to pick it up today! I'll have pics this afternoon. Sadly, it'll be the first week of August before I have any time to install it.

[D&W]

good work keep us updated!

[Fastphil]

I got some tracking numbers today, my air suspension is en route! There was a delay because Accuair was waiting for the parts from RideTech so they could test them before shipping it all out together. I'll be picking it up next week.

[Fastphil]

Thanks for the compliments, guys. I got a couple of pics from Mike over at Accuair, he went down to snap these pics for me. Looks like my order is coming along nicely!





I know it's just a couple of pics of boxes on a shelf, but they're MY boxes on a shelf! Damn, I can't wait to start installing this stuff!

1.) Install Air
2.) Install Kenne Bell S/C
3.) ????
4.) Profit

I'm a ford guy at heart, so this is really tickling my fancy.

I don't plan to upgrade the power any more unless I strike it rich. But if I strike it rich, I'd probably trade up to a 2011 GT500.

Thread is relevant to many of my interests!

Dave, progress will be slow, but I'll try to make it worth your while. I hope to make it into your "Bunch of hard-working Canadians" series, if not as a featured ride!

looks awesome. Post some vids of it destroying other cars

Ask and ye shall receive! First one is my previous best time of 12.86, the only difference between then and now on the car is the CCW's. (Current best is 12.82) Second one is with the CCW's but a much slower time because the track wasn't prepped.
