i just bought a 95 gt vert and i was told these things have been done to it and i was wondering what should be my next move performance wise????

In the past year it has had a new water pump, new radiator, msd plugs wires distributor cap and rotor button, accel performance module, ford racing performance clutch, pro 5.0 short throw shifter, bbk cold air intake, egr and smog pump delete. new drive belt and tensioner. As far as performance upgrades... it has pypes shorty headers and a full 2 3/4 inch pypes exhaust with x pipe and straight through muffler . the bbk intake . Suspension it has is eibach pro kit lowering springs tokico d1 spec fully adjustable shocks motorsports adjustable caster and camber plates on the front. also has brand new front and rear brake pads and rotors, along with new U-Joints in the drive shaft..... any advice is very much appreciated

Two things you can do to get the most bang for your buck:

1. A 3.73 rear gear swap.
2. Remove unnecessary weight, beginning with the 25lb weight that's bolted to the passenger side inner fender under the plastic liner. For other ideas go to Weight Reduction

So 373 is a good gear if i drive it on the highway and around town? its my everyday driver and ive never had gear in none of my cars. thanks

Currently run a T5 with 3.55 gears in the back and I would not recommend using anything above this for a daily driver. I am considering going to a more streetable 3.27 ratio even at 3.55 simply so I don't have to shift as much.

Also Bullit95, do you have any photo's of the weight that your referring to?

No, but if you pull off the plastic fender liner on the passenger side it'll be right there in front of you so you can't miss it. When you do the rear gear swap you can also remove the 8lb "dogbone" that's bolted under the differential.

On a coupe I'd agree with you but on the heavier vert, the 3.73 would be a better option.

Whatt?? I have 3.73's and they are perfect for around town driving. Not wanting to shift a lot is just being lazy I still say 3.73's are the best all around gear!

3.73 Gears would be the way to go. I have 'em in my car and it's amazing! Maybe a Trickflow upper and lower intake would be the next step?
