Default Questions about some mods

I have a 1990 Gt with the following mods:
BBK cai
Mac exhaust and H pipe
Smog delete
3.73 gears

Here is my question:

I have found a 93 Cobra upper and lower intake, 77mm mass air flow meter, 75mm tb, 24lbs. injecters, fuel pressure gauge and regulator,all gaskets and ecm for $800.00 Should I pick this up or what. I'm currently using a ecm out of my buddies car and will have to get one soon. What type of gains should I see.

$800 for all that sounds a tad expensive for that stuff. You also wouldn't need the 24lbs injectors, but you could keep them around for when you change the heads.
I would think you would see about a 20 HP increase with the intake and throttle body. That MAF is probably tuned for 24lbs. injectors so you couldn't use that with your stock 19# injectors...

its not a bad deal but there is some negotiating room....

make sure the computer is an A9L or equivalent

decent heads & headers you will think you are driving a different car....

My car has an AOD, so the cobra ecm should work correct? Is the cobra ecm different than the one that came in my car?

Since I already need a ecm I thought this would be a good upgrade for price.
