Lots of good opinions here and as you are discovering it's almost endless the number of decisions you will have to make.

Trading off performance vs cost, what to have ERA build, what you will build … all the while trying to imagine what the final result will be like and how to estimate the total time and cost of the project.

You are off to a good start soliciting advice and suggestions here from CC and of course listen closely to the sage advice from Peter and Bob. The goal is to have a very short 'do over' list, the planning is a lot of fun.

Most things on the car can be revisited and changed after a while if you find something that is not to your liking. However things like the color, under car exhaust or side pipes, scoops and stripes are best done once the first time.

I went with both front and rear sway bars on my ERA FIA and really like the ride and handling. If you get both now, you very well might find that you are happy with the ride. If it's too stiff, you can take the rear bar off and try it that way. Just my .02

Bottom line, you are right path and wind up with beautiful Cobra.
