Performance first. The best way to look fast is to actually be fast.

GET THE WHIPPLE FIRST!

I vote for the suspension mods first. Improved handling is always a good thing!

If you are sure about the Whipple, then get it first...everything else is easy when it comes to that!!

Whipple S/C will be last . . . she barely has 500 miles right now so that will be at least 1 - 2 years from now. I've already got a fast car right now anyway -- my 02 GT.

As far as suspension I am only doing FRPP springs & dampers for looks only. I just wantto drop it a little bit. The stingers aren't going to add any hp, but it should sound pretty good. I've got an o/r bassani x on my 02 and it is wicked.

I fell in love with the Eleanor hood a long time ago and always wanted one so I'm not going to change my mind on that. I know not everybody likes it, but it's what I want. The only reason I went with alloy instead of my usual color BLACK is so I could put black stripes on it. It just looks a little plain to me right now, I mean I love it, but it would look so much better with the appearance upgrades IMO.

Matt, I just want the FRPP springs & dampers, not the whole pack -- are they okay just for dropping it a little?

Springs are very good, I have had them for over a year....I would get Tokico D-specs for shocks and struts....pretty much best you can get.
The springs:

The stingers:

The shocks:

I will almost guarantee you that those are the lowest prices that can be found.

Yes they dampers are OK though if you dont want to spend the extra 100 for the dspecs
