I have some minor stuff done to my car and I want to continue my modding fun!
So I have a question...

What would be "better"... engine mods first or suspension first? Either way, both engine and suspension will get done within a couple of years I'm sure. I would think suspension is better to go with since I already have a reletively fast car and it would be give me a better platform for future engine mods?

Forperformance stuff... I only havea JLT RAI, intake spacer, vogtland springs, cc plates, o/r x-pipe, and catback.

I'm really wanting to do some shocks, struts, and control arms for starters. It won't see the track much, at least not for a while, so I don't need anything with good adjustability or anything. Maybe some full length subframe connectors. I dunno...

Thoughts? I need some direction! lol

 

I did power first and wouldnt have it any other way

 

Power FTW if you aren't making it a track car. Feed that thing a bottle[8D]

 

Ill say suspensions first, i did my kenne bell and not even a month later i went and got cobra brakes, adjustable suspension, and subframes, car is so much more stable at high speeds now.

 

the only thing i couldnt imagine is having my bone stock mustang and spending a good 1-1.5k in suspension mods...and still having a car that will get spanked by many others on the road

 

How much do you plan on spending? LCA's would be a good upgrade. Although you don't go to the track often, when you decide to go you will have addtional help. Sub frame connectors are a must.

 

I'd say rock the suspension first.. It's so much nicer to upgrade in a linear progression, than upgrade something, then break something, only having to upgrade the broken parts, shortly after you dropped coin on the other things..

That way, when you get your power going, you won't have to worry about as many traction issues, or wheel hop, or even breaking things like torque boxes, or control arm bushings/mounts..

with already having a pretty fast car, i would just do gears and a speedcal to start with, then i would work on suspension

 

these cars hook just fine on stock suspension and a tire, well when relativly stock... id do power untill a tire and stock suspension cant handle it anymore, then suspension

 

i say just mix and match...power mod...suspensions mod...power...suspension...just my .02
