Default Mods to do to my 99 GT

ok everyone, i have a quick question for all of you....

first of all let me tell you all about my car

1999 GT 5spd Coupe
MODS:

Eibach- shocks/struts, sportline springs, anti roll kit
MM- lower control arms, full length subframe connectors
Steeda- 3 point strut tower brace, polyurethane steering rack bushings,triax short shift kit
Hotchkis- caster/camber plates
Flowmaster 40 series 2 chambers welded in to stock catback

i have a credit card with 0% APR so i want to take advantage of it, i am planning on putting 1500-2000 dollars on the card and so i wanted to ask you guys what u think i should modify in terms of performance that i will feel the most ...

my ideas so far are

- bassani off road xpipe
- pro 5 3.90 gears
- Densecharger cold air intake w/ pro M 80mm mam (what happened to the website by the way, i cant find where to order it)

now, i want to know if me getting an entirly new catback would be worth it or should i invest that money into a TB and intake plenum.... also what about a timing adjuster and underdfive pulleys, do those 2 make a noticable amount of power .... any help u guys can give me in terms of suggestions of mods to do would be great.... again, im looking for the max amount of power i can get out of 1500-2000....

i want to thank everyone in advanced because im sure u guys get these questions all day so thanks for helping me out, its always good to hear the opinions of my fellow mustang enthusiasts

i forgot to mention that in that 1500-2000 i want to include a cobra front brake kit which i think should run me about 350 to 400 for the entire kit...

my car is too low for long tubes ... thats why for the exaust im gonna leave the stock manifolds, get an offroad x pipe and if you guys think it will make a big diff, also add a new 2.5 inch catback.... with my stock exaust set up i scratch, with the xpipe ill scratch more, longtubes wont be a good story... see where im comming from

put a 125 shot of nitrous on there, rather easy install if you opt for dry and realitively cheap, you'll be putting down some real power, you'll running with vettes...

Default RE: Mods to do to my 99 GT

im looking for more N/A power as opposed to a power adder. ive narrowed it down to this ... tell me what u guys think


- 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



how does that set up sound to all of you .... it sounds pretty good to me... let me know what u guys think about my list... thanks again everyone
