Default $5k, what would you get
If you had $5k budgeted for a 94 gt with 90k miles on it, what would you do and what would you expect out of it?

SUSPENSION. Get a bad *** suspension and some decent brakes- then spend money on HP.

of course that will most likely cost at Least the whole 5k if you do all the work yourself. I would prolly go H/C/I and spend the other couple grand on suspension. You can always slap a S/C on it later if you plan for it.

I would get a turbo kit. It will give you the biggest horsepower increse. Sure......the motor probbly wont last long but then Its all up to the driver. It will last longer than you think as long as you dont rod the hell out of it all the time.

347 stroker and a bad *** suspension, and maybe even a little 5-7 psi blower.
