hey guys im 16 and just got a 2001 mustang GT manual,with 57000 miles on it,i have about 6000 dollars to put into it i was thinking about this

BBK long tube headers
shorty X-pipe not sure if im getting it catted or not
magnaflow exhaust
full steeda G-trac suspention
2003 cobra rims with toyo tires 275in the front,295 in the back
steeda intake
dragon throtle body and plenium
underdrive pulleys
and for the exterior i was thinking either a cobra R front bumper or a mach ! chin spoiler (witch one do you guys think looks better)

and thats about it for now would you guys recommend anything else

JLT intake
Accufab throtle body and plenium

and for the exterior i was thinking mach ! chin spoiler
FRPP 4.10's gear swap

i don't think u can run cats With Longtubes....

You can run Cats with longtubes...

Clicky

Sounds like you have a plan...But I think you might bust your budget with labor...

Also go with a Mach 1 chin spoiler and a Mach 1 grille delete and be done with the front bumper...

thanx for the correction chris

i was under ther impression u couldn't pass emmisions with longtubes, so i figured y bother with cats....

People say that but I am still yet to see anyone give positive proof that with cats longtubes wont pass...

I ahve seen alot of people say that but and still without proof...So I dont see why they wont pass with cats and a tune it should be just like having stock manifolds...

[mustang2517]

yea i was thinking that,I might drop all the engine bolt ons for now, how much do you think the suspension will cost me to install cause thats the most important thing seeing how i have a mustang at 16, all the other parts i can install myself but suspension could get tricky

[mustang2517]

will i pass with long tubes? also the tires i was looking at are 18" ,9.0 in front 10.5 in back

[ChrisJ]

Well for all 4 Stages of the G-Trac you are looking at 2318.85...And you can bet on at least $1500 for install if you ahve it all done by a shop...Prolly more but I ammjust giving you a guesstimate...And if you were going to go through all that and you want the suspension done then you are going to also want a tubular k-member and tubular a-arms...

K-Member

Tubular Control Arms

That totals $3316.85 for just parts...Prolly $2000 for install if you pay someone to do it...Then you have to get the car alighned as well...About another $100...

So about $5416.85 for the suspension you want...

[mustang2517]

im just gonna stick with the steeda package for now i think that should be enough seeing how its just my daily driver but dam ima have to make some machanic friends

umm 6k dollars... screw all that crap and buy a hellion kit or a s/c kit - with 6k you could get a built motor and a s.c installed.

[cams-shelbycobra07]

+1 buy a blower

Now that i look this over i def exceeded ur 6k. I also def fogot to include the tuner. Its a must have IMO

revised list
JLT intake
non-piggybach UDP (Steeda BBK)
Accufab throtle body and plenium
CatBack of ur choosing....
a prochamber is one of the best o/r pipes, but u may want cats cause of ur emmisions
any short throw shifter
sct xcal 3
FRPP 4.10's
alluminum driveshaft

u could also invest in upper and lower control arms. Save the rest of ur money and drop ur car after winter. By then u should have enough to get a full suspension if u make a decent amount of money.

with the amount of mods u plan on putting in ur car, u should definately invest in the tuner.

what planet is this on that u can get a Built motor & s/c installed on ur car. Especially the 4.6 SOHC. Most complete S/Ckits cost around 4k if not more......

[MustangMatt96GT]

yea no kidding, but i could build my motor with heads and cams with forged internals for around 3500 bucks!

thats doing all the labor urself....

[mustang2517]

yea that list looks perfect but idk i kinda wanna get the suspention first sein how its my first car i kinda gotta get used to it so idk i have to decide what do you guys think

[MustangMatt96GT]

I say do the suspension first! This is my first car! And if I were to do it all again, I would doe 4.10s as my very first mod, and then go with a full drag suspension and then I would go withthe extra power!
