Default 1994 gt-decent mods

I have a 1994 gt 5.0 and im looking to beef it up. Ive figured out about 3 thing that ive read but id like your help on the rest. Larger-75mm- throttle body, underdrive pully system, and 3.73 gears is what ive found to be the quikest and cheapest ways to get some more power. What else is there for some inexpencive power? and can you recommend brands for the three listed above?-Thanks

u need no where near that big of throttle body ...and underdrive pullys are NOT worth it..ask the member on here who just had a post about a cold air kit n pullys...the gears how ever are a good choice..u have a 5speed or auto? because if auto id go 4.10s...i used to have a auto and 3.73s and it cut it but 4.10s woulda been better..however now with my 5speed its perfect..cheapest(free) are bump timing, and remove air silencer if not already done..then some good things to do are tune up...plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filter, get all the little stuff outta the way

just do gears , exhaust and CAI for now and when it comes time for real mods...do a good H/C/I and good tune for it and it'll run like a beast

Longtube ceramics will make most power but also the most expensive. That and just about any 2.5 x with whatever sounding mufflers you like, That will make a good noticeable gain.

I have been doing my car a piece at a time and so far the gears are going to make your biggest difference...i have bbk cai, bbk 70mm throttle body, bbk x pipe, 40 series flowmasters, frpp 9mm wires, msd cap, msd rotor, msd coil, b&m shift kit, bumped timingand the best investment so far is the frpp 4.10 gears....oh yeah...my car is still slow

After noticing mods like CAI & exhaust dont do much makes me regret not doing gears first...NOW I see why everyone says do gears first. If i could start over it would be gears first, full exhaust, suspension, wheels, tires, and then swap out the H/C/I for the realpower.

do that but i'd skip the wheels part. and suspension/drag radials would go together in my book.
deff don't need a 75mm tb right away 65 is good for a stock motor.
