Default 94 GT -- Mod Suggestions???

I have a 5.0L 1994 Mustang GT Convertible
I have a full exhaust already put on, but I want more speed/horsepower/performance.
I'm putting a Cold Air Intake and 3.73 Rear Gears w/ new motive bearings on soon...
Also a Pro 5.0 Shifter, King Cobra Clutch, and SprangZ Lowering Springs...

Any other suggestions for a speedy daily driver???

A larger MAF w/ your CAI, and then suspension and chassis stiffening. I would get new shocks/struts w/ those springs b/c the stock valving will make your ride rough if the suspension components don't compliment each other.

Then subframes and a strut tower brace.

When you list suggested mods can you give me an estimated price and estimated performance boosts please, because I'm not too familiar with them...
I'd really appreciate it!


Are Carbon Fiber hoods a waste of money? I'd like to lighten up the car, but I'm not sure how much the stock hood weighs in comparison to a carbon fiber hood...and theyre quite expensive! I love the hoods on the 99-04 mustangs, is theyre any way I can put one of those on my 94?

No carbon fiber will lighten up your car a good amount. I have driven with 5 cases of oil in my trunk and it feels like im dragging around a lot of weight and then when I took it out it felt awesome. Do you have a 5 spd or auto? But like mentioned earlier 65mm throttle body, 73mm MAF, some upper and lower control arms with some subframe conectors, a CAI and UD pulleys, all that will make your day brighter.

Tokico shock/struts = $290 --will work w/ those springs for better ride.
75mm MAF = $125 on ebay --10-15hp and more airflow
U/L control arms = 159 @ jdsperformance.com -get more power to the ground and get rid of stock quad shocks.
MM chassis brace kit = $350 --xl subframes, strut tower brace, K member brace--will make your chassis much stiffer
U/L intake = $200-400 ebay --TFS street heat, RPM, Cobra.... --15-20hp
Heads = $1000-1350 new --Twisted wedge, AFR 165...--50-70hp

Carbon fiber hoods are lighter and stronger than fiberglass, but you've gotta get it painted so you don't look like a ricer.
