upgrades


Ok so ive been doing lots of research on my car. The things I have decided to go for are k&n cai, bbk shorty ceramic headers, mac o/r h pipe, magnaflow magnapack, kenne bell twin screw supercharger, 3.73 gears, 5.0 short throw or steeda short throw, and some all season ultra high performance tires. I am wondering wut else i can and should do to my car and what the possibilities are? For ex. some pi heads, pi intake. I am at a loss for what elese there is seeing as i recently entered the car world and am stilling learning a great deal about modding them and what not.

i would change a few things. JLT for the intake, and the KB is most likely going to require the use of a intake for a 03/04 cobra.

screw shorty headers, they're not worht it, eithe leave them stock, or get some MAC longtubes

and for shifter the pro 5.0 is the biggest POS in the world. MGW FTW.

your right on the money with the 3.73's if your doing a twin screw.

the intake is the cold air intake. you want a JLT over a K&N because its a hell of alot better.

New Page 1

decide if your doing a KB of not though because i think the KB uses one for a 03/04 cobra while your NA set will use the one for a GT.
