Default what mods?

everyone on hear talks about doing stuff like superchargers and h/c/i stuff or motor swaps and right now i dont have the cash but i do want a little extra juice out of my pony i already have an exhaust system on it and new pluds wires cap and rotor should i just do the basic CAI? does anyone make a tuner or a chip or anythin like that like they do for the '05+ if so who makes it and where can i find them.

is there something better than just the intake and exhaust would an hei setup give more power then an intake kit would?

thanks

Don't waste your money on a chip for a stock car cause you'll just throw it away when you do an H/C/I for a better tune more suited to what you got. Save your money for a good H/C/I AND DYNO tune

If you tune it right it'll be fine I've seen 11 sec cars tuned to the effect of 17 to 21 on the highway as far as gas goes buy a vw diesel an old one I got an 81 that get's 47 mpg all day long and I drive my mustangs whenever I get the itch
