Default What next?

My mods are in my sig. What should I do next? I don't want to go FI because of the price, but let me know what you all think. I am going to keep this car but was planning adding another pony to my stall when I graduate in two years. Should I just keep saving for my next stang or go ahead and keep having fun with this one? It has 103K on it right now.

dude I'm in the same boat. I have a ton of bolt ons and dont wanna go FI just yet.... I still need a midpipe and maybe headers, but other than that I dunno what to do.... Maybe get some headers... or the next step is cams. They will cost 1000 bucks after install i'm sure. I cant think of anything else.

Why not a PI swap?

I was actually thinking about a PI swap because I am having a little trouble with my piece of junk stock manifold. I am still not sure if I should keep modding this car or save up for a Cobra or 5.0. I am too indecisive right now!!!!!!! You all are helping though. Headers could be good.

PI swap, hands down!
You'll be glad you did and might want to hang on to car longer

lizzyfan, lovin the color of the car man! If I do the swap, I should see some prolonged engine life right? How many miles do you have on yours? Any problems or anything?

Thanks! (you must be biased!)As prolonged engine life, that's all up to you, ie. driving habits ect. I did the swap at 86,000 and went F/I right after!

do a pi swap and some nice cams. you will be very happy. you will not see any power out of anything else. and if you have the money do headers at the same time.
