Yup, I'm posting another next mod thread, mainly because I can't find what I wanted searching, and maybe for a good reason. But I was thinking of getting an upgraded MAF for my next mod, but don't know if it's worth it and couldn't really find any threads on it. I want more power, so what would be a good next mod for me? I don't want to touch the suspension for now, that will come at a later date.

Car: 2000 GT 5 speed

Current Power gainer/speed mods:

Wider tires (before someone tells me this is the best speed mod)
BBK CAI
BBK Throttle Body
C&L upper intake elbow
Magnaflow Catback
Sniper 93 Octane tune


Possible mod's I'm thinking of:

MAF
Steeda UDP
X or H pipe (maybe)

Mods I don't want/don't think I need:

Headers
H or X pipe (happy with the way the car sounds now, and hear it doesn't gain power)
Gears (I do a ton of highway driving and don't want to turn any higher RPM than I do now)




Now that being said, my buddies friend has a pile of 01 Cobra parts and I was wondering if any of that stuff may fit my car. Mainly I'm thinking about the MAF (if it's even better than mine).

 

Gears without question! MAF won't do a thing for you.

 

Brakes upgrade ~ Speeding up slowing down

fantastic mod, great price!

Jazzer.... pimpin' agin'

 

What about cosmetic mods? Like wheels,bumper,lights ect......

 

what about a f/i? nitrous, s/c, turbo..... best mods power wise 2nd only to gears

 

Cobra brakes all around are already on the way.

As I said in my post, I don't want to do gears, I do to much highway driving for that. I also read that the MAF does gain a few HP to the wheels. I can pretend it helps gas mileage too.

I have some already, but like I said in my post, I'm really looking for power at this point.
That's to extreme for me right now, I was debating some spray, but I really don't want to blow my motor to all hell and back. It's my DD and I don't think I should play around like that even though everyone says it's safe. I'm more of a want the power all the time kind of guy. I don't want to be filling bottles all the time and worry about my bottle being turned on on the highway when I feel the need to pass someone.

 

Sorry, i missed the gears thing. But i am telling you that upgrading your MAF (at our current power level) will do nothing for you. If you doubt that just ask around. UDP's and a mid pipe will be like a shot of nitrous compared to the MAF upgrade lol.

 

Chrome windshield wipers.

 

lol

 

I really don't know why you won't do gears, I don't see what highway driving has to do with anything. I got 3.73's and I didn't notice any difference in gas mileage, if anything, MAYBE a mile. My highway RPM's sit around 2100 or so.

That's really the BEST bang for your buck mod you can do, IMO.


I don't see why you'd get a MAF. And you got a CAI...which didn't benefit you at all besides looking pretty.


But, I guess UDP would be a good mod for you to get, since you're anti-gear.
