best bang for buck? next mod ?
 
okay.. im new to the forum.. i gota 96 gt mustang (manual), its got 2.5 inch pipes x pipe high flow cats two flowmasters.. K&N air filter.. its throttle body is bored out so its a little bigger than the stock throttle body but im still not sure how much proformance that gave it since the throttle body is still the same stock size and all.. i am in the process of putting the PI intake on with the none PI heads.. ( car is torn apart in my friends garage right now) got the kit off ebay for 300 dollars.. i think i got ripped off on it but it has all the stuff i need to make the PI intake fit on the none PI heads..

i have a "superchipz" thing that is connected to a wire that is suposed to be connected to a senor in my intake near my filter? i dont know if that really does anything or not? someone told me it just tells the comptuer to burn more gas..

but i have about 300 to 350 to spend on the car and i was wondering what my next step would be to get more proformance, whats my best bang for the buck?

get a K&N cold air intake kit? some kind of diablo chip? or somthing else? i just want more bang for the dollar? anyone have any ideas on what i should get next?

thanks !

At least 4.10 gears. Dont forget to get the speedo gear to correct the speedo.

gears huh? ;) ive been thinking about gears, but my tranny is starting to get old.. would it put a lot of stress on it because i would be shifting a lot more if i got gears? and i was talking toa guy and he said it would cost a lot to get gears put in my car? how much did it cost you guys? and the pulleys, i was also told that the way they work it takes power away from my water pump and alt, i got subs in my car ? they use a little bit of juice.. i dont know if the pulleys would effect that at all? same goes with the water pump? does the pulleys just slow it down? will it make my car run hotter because the water isnt moving throught the engine as fast? ive always had a problem with my cars coolent system.. ive blown two hoses and one manifold in the past month :/

the only stress will be from your foot. if you don't always gun it, your car will be running as if the gears were stock. good luck NOT laying on the throttle with them though. :D
