I Can't Decide
Ok here's the mods that I want to do and I'm not sure what order to do them in. I was thinking of doing N2O last since it costs the most and it'll be a drain on my wallet constantly if I use it. Anyway here's what I'm looking to do. All I'm asking for is some direction.
60mm Accufab Throttle Body PHP Intake Spacer Long Tube Headers N2O Wet Kit Steeda Underdrive Pulleys Upper and Lower Control Arms Aluminum Driveshaft

DEF. go for the long tubes. When i put long tubes on my 5-spd it drove so much more smoothly. Long tubes have my vote.

dont waste your $$ on the spacer, and TB, use that $$ to get your intake ported, and a set of gears.
the gears will feel GREAT, and the intake will gain atleast double the power the spacer and TB will, and cost less. also for the price of all that stuff you can almost get a centri blower setup.

I can't do it all at once though and I really don't want to save for it. I'm putting close to or over 300rwhp down now. I really don't want to go over 400 and the blower will do that.
How much would it cost to get the intake ported?

As far as the throttle body goes, going too big can actually be bad for my car if it isn't putting down big numbers unlike the GTs. And the biggest t/b for a Mach that I've seen is 65mm if I remember right.

first of all, i dont care what people say, your really no going to gain anything with a TB, maybe 2HP, and your throttle response will get bigger.
ported intake is like $300 if you have NAZMAN over on SVTP do it, he is GREAT he pretty much pioneered the NA 4V. UDP's, ported intake, and LT's will set you over 330RWHP. a small 50 shot will probably bring you damn near 400.

i p&p'd my buddy's t/b (doc8224), and his car took to it very very well! throttle response is so much better and was able to tell a very nice difference! i would recommend one, but nothing more than a 62mm. intake work will be a better gain if you have the money, since youre there might as well try to do the spacer too. bolt ons are all accumlative power, more you do the more you will get. not one bolt on will give huge gains, but will all add up. we will be doing some stuff on doc's car and will keep note of it all. hopefully we can get some dyno time in for some #'s.

I say go ahead and do the FRPP Alum. D/S!
Its a great mod. Smooth acceleration with minimal, or no vibrations at all! Then jump over to T/B. It worked well with my JLT!

Well by the time I get the bolt ons in and possibly N2O (still thinking about keeping it N/A), I'll be getting married and money will be going towards other things. Down the road things might be completely different but I won't have the cash to mess with the engine in the near future.

do something you can install in a jiffy. T/B, Aluminum DS, Intake spacer, Upper and/or lower control arms. you want to know the order id do it in? 1. Aluminum DS 2.Upper/Lower control arms 3.62mm Accufab 4.PHP spacer 5.steeda U/D 6.Long tubes 7.N20 (not a fan of those with it..for some odd reason i consider it cheating. like atletes with steroids. )

Well I ordered the Steeda UDPs from AM last night and they should be in midweek. Once I figure out how much money I have in the next few weeks I'll go with LTs if I have excess. Or I'll go with T/B to fill out the intake or arms if I am lacking.
What should the install for headers be, roughly?
