Default Need some advice

About to pull the trigger on a pretty big order...getting 18X9 and 18X10 chrome deep dish bullets with the eibach pro kit springs changed my mind form super sports...dont want to go that low... and I was thinking about getting a TB Plenum and spacer.

Anyone know if C&L or Stack is worth getting for 100 less than accufab. Being NA i cant imagine there would be much of a difference between each company anyways. I figure i can just get the plenum 70mm TB and spacer along with everything else.

Any thoughts/suggestions?

thanks.

The spacer is worth nothing, and the pro kit wouldn't b low enough 4 me.

don't waste your money on the spacer, get a bigger tb (70mm or 75mm both are fine for n/a cars), C&L makes good products, I have the prokit, it's a drop, not much though so if you're scared to slam the car it's a happy medium, you'll wish you went lower though as I do- I just scrape my mufflers on everything around town so....

goodluck

just a FYI people are bashing me for wanting to buy Eibach springs.. As a summery of about 3 or 4 different people here on this board, "they don't sit low enough, and the rear sits lower then the front" (Mustangforums.com)

I have them, I have been complimented on the stance of my car by a few people on here and by many people in person. My car isn't slammed like most people on here and my car would be if I could get over the dang speed bumps in my hometown with out having my mufflers ripped off. If they aren't low enough for someone, then they shouldn't buy them, no need to bash on something that a lot of people like. They are a happy medium for people who want lower their car so it doesn't like like a f-150, but also for people how DRIVE their cars and have to be able to get through snow and over some pretty big speed bumps. I've had my car bottom out on some of the sh*ty roads on my college campus bc the roads are so torn up from snow and construction. Yes, they aren't as low as other brands, but they are lower than stock, and my front end is also much lower than by back end is.
