yah 96gt what the hell are u thinking. 100hp with no heads or intake. what r u on crack? no offense but i want whatever parts ur bying if thats how much power ur getting

cam=20hp
pulleis=5hp
headers=15hp
h-pipe=15hp
cold air intake=5hp
heat spacer= almost nothing
#24 injectors= nothing without maf or bigger tb
gears=no hp, will make u quicker tho, and cost about $400 to install

that equals about 60hp gained if that.

Then you could add a BBK X-Pipe, get you maybe: 12hp
Add an American thunder cat back exhaust from flowmaster exhaust 5hp

Maybe a fuel pressure reg. and bump the fule pressure up: 1-2hp

Then if you wanted more, you'd have to go into the motor..IE heads, cam...

Again all of this Depends on your budget.

As roundy likes to say, as well as that go-kart engine builder can't remember his name...

"Speed costs money, how fast ya wanna go?"
Wasn't it "Speed cost money, how fast you wanna spend?"
mabey that was a different post.
phenolic spacers (what you are referring to as heat spacers) help keep the upper intake manifold temperature down so that CAI you bought won't be a waste of money. Most air from a CAI gets heated back up to regular temps before it reaches the heads. So you will get a little bit of hp gain with the spacer. I've heard of up to 8whp with a warm air intake, but it was not a mustange engine.
