Default RE: Mods to do to my 99 GT

does anyone know any good websites where i can get all the things i want for the cheapest prices... im looking around but i might as well ask you guys too because im sure someone would be able to come up with some good sites.


here are the mods i want

- Cobra front brake kit

- bassani off road x pipe (w/ stock catback w/ 40 series 2 chamber flows)

- tunable induction intake w/ pro m MAM

- bbk 70mm TB

- C&L plenum

- Pro 5 3.90 gears (4.10s are too much and 3.73s are too little)

- steeda underdrive pulleys

- and the predator tuner to tune the A/F and adjust my timing and all that kind of good stuff



ALSO, is the bassani offroad x pipe worth 320 bucks or are there cheaper ones that perform equally as well... same thing goes with any of my parts, if anyone knows of brands that will perform equally as good but just cost less, feel free to let me know ...

thanks

on my first reply there is a link to the predator tuner and to the steeda underdrive pulleys... and just to let you know the accufab t/b and plenum dynoed the best gains, so you might want to reconsider your choices for t/b and plenum, here is the link modulardepot.com... you might want to check brothersperformance.com they are a really good site and they might have the other things

So I have to ask...Why keep it N/A? You're going to spend twice the money trying to make it half as fast. Use that 0% card and buy a blower. Then go really fast for a reasonable amount of money.

but a blower would cost around 3 or 4 gs , not counting installation, and i dont know if i can install a blower, i know i can install all those bolt ons my self because i did most of my suspension, and my tri- ax my self... so id be saving money on installation... thats my logic behind that

Honestly...The GT's already have a dual piston caliper on the front, I'd throw some cross drilled rotors on it and maybe some better pads. Don't waste the money on the Cobra brakes unless you're going Autocrossing with it.
