    Questions on C&L MAF and inlet tube on 1998 Cobra

    I just got my C&L MAF and trueflow inlet pipe (both C&L), and installed them last Saturday. The install was easy enough, only took about 20 minutes all said and done. Had to buy some of those tamper-resistant torx bits, but no biggy, only $10. Anyway, to my question. Like I said, it installed...

    Factory injector size on 1998 Cobra

    Believe it or not, I actually did a bunch of searching on this, and could not find an answer! I think I heard somewhere that the factory size is 19#, but I'm not 100% sure. Thanks in advance for anyone who helps me out.

    C&L Mass Airflow System?

    I've heard that this part will actually make good amounts of power, to the tune of 11-16 rwhp on my 98 Cobra. How accurate is this information? I also heard it does this by leaning out the fuel mixture, causing the car to run lean at higher rpm's. This of course can be corrected by a chip, but...
