Mods question
Hey
Im new to the forum and need some help trying to figure out which mods i want to do to my 07 GT. So far i hav CAI and cat back (not sure what kind) and i'd like to add more mods. Im not sure which mods are the best for the money, but i was thinking about LT headers, throttle body, and programmer/chip. Does anyone know what combination works best and what will give the best performance for these mods. Also, what brands are the best to go with as far as TB and LT's. How important is ceramic/jet coating on the LT's? Thanks for the help

Howdy! Welcome aboard. The first thing I would say is that you sort of need to decide what your long term goals are for the stang. Are you looking at going forced induction or staying normally aspirated? Is the car a daily driver or a weekend toy? The reason I say this is because this may influence what you go with.
As far as what you currently have, depending on what kind of CAI you have, you may or may not require a tuner/programmer. Most of the major brands such as Steeda, JLT, C&L require a reflash of the PCM. Any one of those along with a throttle body such as BBK and long tube headers should yield a good net gain in rwhp.

Its more of a weekend driver, and im still undecided on nat aspiration vs forced but i am considering a supercharger. As far as a programmer/tuner, is it better to have the car dyno tuned or just buy a chip? thanks again
