Very nice car.. If I'm not mistaken one of the best bangs for the buck on the 96-98 GT's will be a PI swap. if I'm not mistaken they do not cost that much. I would ask that question before you buy cams and a tuner (PI swap)..

Bottom line man. Before you think about doing any mod to your car you might want to think about doing the PI swap. Being 17 I know you want to go fast but sadly the 96-98 GT's in stock form are good for low to mid 15's. With your mods I think you may on a good day run 14.8 -15.3 at the track. Before you go out and waste your money ask some of the heavy hitters here on MF (Lizzyfan, Uberstang, justinscmidt1 and etc., etc.,) Good luck but I would suggest you do not buy cams are a tuner right now..
