Next mod

jbm5781 · August 22nd, 2007, 08:09 PM

Alright guys, I already have a set of FRPP pullies, PI intake, bbk o/r x-pipe, flowmaster 40 series, Granatelli MAF, and CAI. What should I do next?

Gears, cam, tuner, plenum & TB

Any suggestions?

HMUSN · August 22nd, 2007, 08:10 PM

all of the above plus suspension.

jbm5781 · August 22nd, 2007, 08:18 PM

I agree but I'm on a fairly tight budget. I have a wife and child that come first. If you were at the same point, which mod would you choose next?

HMUSN · August 22nd, 2007, 08:21 PM

out of those listed gears.

jbm5781 · August 22nd, 2007, 08:24 PM

Ok thats what I was thinking but wanted a 2nd opinion. I'm thinking either 4.10's or 3.73's. I do alot of city driving but take a 200 mile trip once every other week. I unfortunately have a slowmo automatic.

HMUSN · August 22nd, 2007, 08:26 PM

4:10

trust me... don't listen to the whole highway/gas miliage bs...

half those people don't even have gear put in.

I had 4:10's and 3:73's in both my mustangs.

go 4:10.. regardless of 5 spd or auto.

GTsetGO · August 22nd, 2007, 08:29 PM

yeah, go 410 brah. i avhe them and love them. plus I still get 25 mpg on the highway.

jbm5781 · August 22nd, 2007, 08:29 PM

Sounds like a plan my man... I'm hoping to get them in the next month or so. By the way, the pullies worked out great! I put them on while doing my PI intake. All in all, a nice little boost for the little pony

HMUSN · August 22nd, 2007, 08:30 PM

sweet.

glad you like them man.

jbm5781 · August 22nd, 2007, 08:30 PM

Damn thats pretty good seeing as I only get about 21 or so, but that was with a cracked manifold. Maybe it will go up 1 or 2 mpg. If not, I still have more power than before.

GTsetGO · August 22nd, 2007, 08:31 PM

nice. you will really feel the gears when they are in.

HMUSN · August 22nd, 2007, 08:32 PM

no you won't

gears don't add power :wink

they just make you acc. faster

which isn't a bad thing.

but you will DEF. feel a difference.

jbm5781 · August 22nd, 2007, 08:33 PM

Thats what I've heard. Everyone tells me that its a huge difference in feeling. I know a guy who put 4.10's in his 96 auto and he can jump just about any LT1 around here, which isn't saying a whole lot but still...

GTsetGO · August 22nd, 2007, 08:33 PM

ha ha. I know the gears don't add HP, but the sticker that came with them do.

jbm5781 · August 22nd, 2007, 08:33 PM

But no hp, just acceleration.

HMUSN · August 22nd, 2007, 08:34 PM

they will def wake up your car. that's for sure...

and fyi... gears are not going to be enough to beat a lt1 in anything but first gear.

jbm5781 · August 22nd, 2007, 08:35 PM

Oh I knew it wouldn't be... It just makes them freak out when you jump them out of the hole

ZoomZoomMFer · August 22nd, 2007, 08:48 PM

i need all of that stuff too but when you have no money its kinda hard lol

jbm5781 · August 22nd, 2007, 08:56 PM

Amen to that bro I have to save for forever to get even the cheapest mod right now

MustangMatt96GT · August 22nd, 2007, 11:57 PM
