New Car! Old one sold! Extra $2400!

Kingcater · August 19th, 2007, 08:22 PM

Well I sold my 1992 Foxbody and bought a 2000 GT with 49K ford $9,400.00. I have $2,400.00 left over after all is said and done. Now my question is, what mods should I add to the car? My goal is to have a nice Daily driver that can run well. I don't want a straight line only car. Mods on the car are Magnaflows and that's it. I just order an MGW shifter [ I love these shifters ].

This is what I was thinking for mods:

Accufab Plenum with 70MM Throttle Body
JLT or C&L Intake
Some type of Off Road X-Pipe
Spintech or Mac Mufflers
MGW Shifter [ already ordered ]
4.10 or 4.30 Gears
Steeda UDP
SCT XCAL2 with Dyno Tune
Bullitt Caliper Upgrade with new rotors
Bullitt suspension

Let me know what I'm leaving out

id say your first 2 mods should be the shifter and the gears...if i was you id get 4.10, should be plenty as 4.30 may be overkill. JLT intake FTW! make sure you do some suspension work which it seems like you have covered...subframe connectors, any lightweight parts help such as aluminum driveshaft ect and thats my .02 haha good luck with the car man

first things first!

I'll get pix up in a minute, I work 6 days a week so I have little free time. Also the car already has SFCs

Kingcater · August 19th, 2007, 08:56 PM

Most people that I have talked to with 4.10's say they wished they went with 4.30s

Kingcater · August 19th, 2007, 09:06 PM

I'm just scared that it won't be reliable cuz I'm not forged and I know the T-45s aren't that strong

HMUSN · August 19th, 2007, 09:08 PM

plenty of people run boost without forged internals.

9psi intercooled and call it a day man.

and get some lowering springs too. it will handle much better. i've heard a lot of people say to just not even waste time with pullies, tb, CAI, etc and just go supercharged from the get go. other bolt ons like exhaust will just help support it though.

Kingcater · August 20th, 2007, 03:23 AM

Hmmm so I need to sell my 94 GT and I'll have more than enough money to play with......

Timm10221 · August 20th, 2007, 10:11 AM

HAHA, yea, I am doing the Normal bolt on for now till i come into some money for SC, JLT FTW and for the plenum Accufab all the way, and 75mm check out the sticky with 1st mods, it will answer any ?? you got bout bolt ons. But do gears Soon!
