What too do?

I just picked up a 1994 mustang GT yesterday. It has a short throw shifter, baer brakes, and cold air intake. What is the first steps to start improving HP and making it faster on a lower budget?

Bump your timing up a little. It's free.

Nice free flowing exhaust. 2.5" diameter fits these cars nicely as a budget upgrade

I'd do the gears and rebuild the tru-trac unit.
Gears are the best bang for the buck..........

Gear ratio

what gear ratio is the best choice? I am looking between 373 and 410. Which would give me better performance?
