Default Next MoD!!!

I have a 97 gt with a KnN cold air intake and a SCT tuner and flowmasters. its just not enough. im planning on putting my 3.73 gears in it one weekend but other than that what should i be looking at as a next upgrade for better performance. lets try to start with the less expensive ways that will help gain some HP n work from there.

Get it tuned since you'll be needing to recalibrate the speedo anyway.

If you are getting gears then the Short throw would be my next mod. The stock shifter just down right sux compared to an aftermarket

Pulleys just free up a few hp to the wheels. Nothing big or very noticable. What are you plans for your car?

You could always do a PI swap.
