    Cobra Caliper Questions - Urgent!

    I recently bought from eBay, a pair of "Used 96-98 Cobra front brake calipers" with brackets. I know what you're thinking, all 94-98 are the same. I don't know what the seller was thinking, but read on. They needed rebuilt (boots were melted) so I ordered the seal kits. While I was waiting for...

    Right now I have an Alpine 9856 head unit (50Wx4 max, 18Wx4 RMS) running with (4) Pioneer 6"x8" 3-ways (220W max, 50W RMS). I am more concerned with better sound as opposed to louder sound.
