Default 94 5.0 Cold Air Intake

I just bought a 94 GT and I want to add reasonably priced mods to the car but I have to keep the gas milage near stock as I am going to be driving the car daily and i have a very limited budget because I'm still 15. I already have BBK Headers, an off-road H-Pipe, Flows, B&M short throw shifter, 3.73 gears, and BBK 1.5 inch lowering springs. I'm unsure of what my next mod should be, I'm thinking a BBK cold air intake. Any suggestions?

smog delete, a/c delete (if you can handle not having it) and underdrive pullies, will all give you better gas mileage with a little performance. plus they are all cheap.

I was thinking about the ac delete also, not having it isnt a big deal. Which kit should I use? I've heard that March and Ford Racing make kits. I don't really know anything about the smog delete - what will that do for me?

LOL, the a/c delete might get you a whole 5 horses. And the maybe .025 mpg. Not worth it unless your making an all drag car.

I'm still thinking about a cold air intake. Also, what does a smog delete do, and what power gains would I be getting from that?

removing the whole smaog pump itself will lighten the car about 10 lbs and get a smaller belt and maybe gain 5 hp

That sounds pretty good. How much will it all cost and can I do this myself? Would you recomend doing the cold air intake or do you think that its not worth my money/time?
