If you're on a budget that is a good way to go. The explorer intake flows like 1 cfm less than the actual Motorsport Cobra intake and the heads have larger valves, larger ports and a "quick burn" combustion chamber that is much better than stock. Because of the combustion chamber redesign the spark plugs are angled differently and interfere with the stock mustang headers, so special headers for those GT40-P cylinder heads as they're called are required and they also cost more than regualr headers. You can get the heads and intake for pretty cheap so the extra cost for the headers is no big deal.
Good luck,
