I have $1000...
 
...what upgrades wouldm you guys recommend for me? I have an 01 Cobra with exhaust (minus headers) and a King Cobra clutch. I want a CAI but those are relatively cheap. What would you guys go for in my shoes? And before anyone says it...I'd like to keep it NA until I get it paid off so saving a little bit more for a S/C isn't an option at the moment.

mid pipe, cat back, gears, and a tuner.

Since you have an exhaust already, I would go with gears, tuner, and a good CAI. I hear densecharger is one of the best.

Thanks guys....what exactly is a mid pipe? I have an H pipe but I don't know if that's stock because I bought the car used.

Look under your car and if you see a **** load of cats (6 to be exact) then you have the stock H.

If there are 4 chunky cats on there....then its a stocker. If it is indeed stock, get some headrers and a midpipe. Also get a CAI, and GEARS GEARS GEARS.

Gears, tuner, and a CAI. If you have anything leftover(prices depending on install price) I would shoot for a mid pipe and catback(for sound)

Ok, definitely not a stock H-pipe down there. Any recommendation on a tuner? I think I will go with the Densecharger system, but which gears should i go for? I want an in-between ratio because I still want half way decent gas mileage. Also, what kind of a sound difference does a set of headers make in an exhaust note?

go to a junkyard and find yourself a strong running V-Tec. then you won't need any mods and you'll be the fastest thing in the world. thats what i did and i honesly believe im untouchable[8D]

go 3.73 for a gear if you plan on going S/C later on.... Your longtubes are gonna net you some good powa and sound mean especially with your mid pipe. Just make sure you get a quality catback. Check out some sound bites to get an idea of what to expect and find what you like...

Get 4.10s, and a midpipe for sure

4v motors love Long Tubes.

Why not LT's with a shortie mid-pipe & some gears?

You'll have save up about another grand to have everything installed, but you'll get some serious performance out of all that.

RE: I have $1000...
 
Why not any N2O? i know you said NA, anyways get 4:10's even if you want a S/C later, A Tuner and CIA
