You can enjoy the nice exhaust every time you drive the car, but how often do you race where you're gonna be glad you got the PI swap over the exhaust..probably not very often.

Yeah, exhaust is a must but on a non P.I. 2V your not gonna see ay big improvements with bolt ons until you do the P.I. swap. He didnt ask what the CHEAPEST 1st mod would be. He asked what would be the FIRST MOD to put on his car. If your on a real tight budget by all means go for the exhaust that might get you 10 RWHP for over $350 but if I had to do it all over again I would have done the P.I. swap first. A lil over $1100 for 50 RWHP. Everybody knows HP isnt cheap. You get what you pay for man.

I hate to say it, but I'd have to disagree. The PI swap is a lot more work and costs a whole lot more than exhaust. And after the PI swap, you're still gonna have a quiet car, even if it is faster. Exhaust is a must, no matter how fast the car is.

Thats like sayin dont do any mods at all to your car because you hardly ever speed so you wouldnt have any use for em. If you enjoy losin do the exhaust

ok well when i do the pi head swap wat are the little parts that i am going to need
if you buy a complete pi swap kit you won't need anything at all...everything is included. They go for @ 1350 shipped from steen or parkway ford.(can be found on ebay as parkway performance)

i don't htink i'd do the pi swap first. that's a lot of money to dump into your car. when you first get your car you want to start modding right away. i'd get the exhaust and some 4.10's first. then while you're playing with them, save your money for the swap next
