Default Priority list for Upgrades
Right now my '02 GT sits stock with only a new cold air intake. What would ya'll recommend be done first? What brands bring how much power? Any recommendation and stats are welcome.

Thanks

Personally, I would say go full exhaust. You will get some performance gains but, the sound is priceless IMO.

Cat-back, gears, and then midpipe and headers.

Gears & headers should be the first thing, but as you see, everyone does it his or her way! Good luck

Yeah.. Tuner should be one of the final . this way you can get it tuned to match your mods

first thing is you wanna sound like a bad-a$$...so go with exhaust. then i would say tuner/timing adjuster, gears, short throw, drag radials and conrtrol arms.
