wheelsjz · April 7th, 2011, 01:07 AM

Underdrive pulleys?

You can buy the gears but its pretty expensive to have them installed. I'd get a CAI then save alittle more and get a TB spacer or just replace it.

V8.... what are the ULTIMATE goals for your car?

It is pretty hard to suggest a mod for you when we have no idea what you like to do with your car

In the end I would like a 600hp street car but I plan on starting that build when I'm done with college so now as a junior in high school idk tbh just want to make it a little faster

'97'Cobra · April 7th, 2011, 09:11 AM

KV007 · April 7th, 2011, 10:32 AM

Isn't that a really big problem if you don't have a correct speedometer? I mean how do you know how fast your going then?

wheelsjz · April 7th, 2011, 03:28 PM

There are some UCA's that should NEVER be installed on any car for any reason. So if the OP is considering this as an option, please read my posts on the subject or just PM me

Jazzer.... still lookin' out for his pepes

LoveStangs88 · April 7th, 2011, 09:23 PM

i went with a cold air intake for my first mod then did a short sport shifter followed by fixing my leaky gas tank grommet and a new fuel pump and fuel filter.

for you i would go with a cold air intake and a new fuel filter off the bat to give you some better gas mileage, both these helped me get 50+ miles out of a full tank but its all up to you where u wanna go with the car. If yours is like mine and you still have the factory brakes on then i would replace those cuz its no good street racing if u cant stop for the next light that wants to turn yellow when your topping out 3rd gear at 90+

Spacer is pointless unless hes boosting or running nitrous.
