Default O Boy!

Well some things happened recently which prevented me from A.) doing as much to my car as i wanted or B.) selling it for a cobra.
So i now have less money to work with here so here's my options what should i do First.

** Currents Mods:
Full Exhaust
gears
mickey thompson tires on the way (UPS)
Novi 1000, 6.5 psi (not sure why)
Shorty shifter
Full Length subframes

All of these i plan on doing eventually but i'd like to know what i should do first. If you choose one plz tell me why you picked that option and how much power you think it'll give me. thanx

PULLEY, PULLEY, PULLEY, and retune. Get that thing to where it should be and you will love it.

Intercooler would be the best for safety and could be very cost effective. The Hardballr intake is cool and install is easy.I will find out what kind of gains if any I will be getting from it. Could be a good thing if I don't so I don't push the motor too much more. Throttle body and plenum I don't think you will see too much of a gain from those. The problem is that you just aren't getting all the air you should be into the motor and its not a restriction from anything on your car except your pulley.

An all aluminum intake so you don't have to worry about that stupid thing cracking. It also has a ton of material so you can port the living hell out of it. Texas Hotrods sells it. High Performance Solutions makes it. It is a very nice piece and we will find out today about any gains.

Boost Pulley with DIY intercooler and meth injection, i think this would net the highest gains, then re tune!
