well, i took the approach of modding my car with looks and sound quality first.
new dvd/tv/mp3/cd player with all new amps/subs/backup camera.. etc...
then added the racing strips, convertible light bar, wind blocker, hood pins, roush hood scoop, dash kit..etc..

so..i had her looking the way i wanted her, so i decided it was time to make her a bit quicker.

i added single flowmaster at and evolution CAI/Tune.

Question is..what do i do next?

i dont want to break the bank with turbos, superchargers etc.. i cant afford that for sure!

but what about gears, tloc, stuff like that, what should i aim for next to make her alittle quicker?

First off, you did everything backwards [8D]

Best bang for your buck power adder wise would be nitrous, but gears, t-lock, headers, duals are going to be your next 'bolt on' mods.

I do all my work myself, but you may want to look in your area for a good, reputable performance shop to do these for you if your not comfertable.

i did everything in order of priority to ME. Most important to me was a awesome sound system, not a good sound system... next I didnt want my car to look stock, coz everybodys looks stock 'round here, i wanted to set it out from the crowd, which i have done. I havent been hell bent of trying to squeeze extra power on the car from the start. partly due to the fact that my other car is a 72 chevelle with a 400 with a 292 magnum cam, flat top pistons, 750 carb that runs all 4 barrels even at a idle. the car will blow the paint off of my mustang or a gt for that matter.

anyway...now i am tinkering with just adding some power to the mustang...not huge amounts, coz i already have a car for that, just alittle more zip than it has now...

I know most folks like to go the power route first, before other mods, but thats what so great about modding, its up to each individual to choose his own route.

Good point about the nitrous..i hadnt thought about that...

nitrous runs out eventually. keep that in mind.

And that about sums up our hobby in a nutshell, well stated.
Got any pics of the Chevelle? Sounds like a nice ride.
I would do Tlok/gears as well as at the minimum lower control arms next.
