Simple question...

2000Mustang · April 12th, 2007, 08:39 PM

This is my simple question.....

I only want people to respond with the number 1 or 2, then a brief explanation of why you chose that.

I'm looking into my next mod. I've narrowed it down to 2 possibilities: 1. MAC lt headers or 2. New plugs, MSD superconductor wires, Screamin Demon coil, and underdrive pullies. What would I be happier with?

I currently have: true duals, cai, chip

Pro's and con's:
Headers will cost more
I get more with option 2
I could install option 2 by myself, I cannot with option 1
I really don't have money for option 1 right now
Option 1 will make my car sound better

Both options are on my to -do list, I just don't know which one to do first.
I'd like whichever one to lower my et.
Please post the number 1 or 2 and reason. Thanks alot in advance

man that is a tricky question... becuase either way you will get either one sooner or later... but personally i think that you might be more happy with the exhaust... but you will see a bit more performance out of the other mods... thats what it will come down to ...

Sam'sWildStang · April 12th, 2007, 08:50 PM

id say headers and ud pullies

2000Mustang · April 12th, 2007, 08:52 PM

????? Not meaning to be a dick, but that isn't an option. There's either 1 or 2. You cannot add the option of 1 1/2.

GreenFaleen · April 12th, 2007, 08:52 PM

headers and pulleys are your best gains, headers if one or the other

Sam'sWildStang · April 12th, 2007, 08:53 PM

lol im not sayin, im just sayin. hum, i love exhaust so go with the headers

2000Mustang · April 12th, 2007, 08:55 PM

Headers are going to be about $600-700 before they are done. Thats a big bite to swallow right now. But, keep the suggestions coming.

Sam'sWildStang · April 12th, 2007, 08:57 PM

hum, how bout ud pullies and cat-back system???

00stang · April 12th, 2007, 08:59 PM

i would go with the exhaust first cuz u will gain some sweet sound with it and it will be more benefical to you and then when u add theothers later it will be a pretty sweet gain so i say option 1 oh yeah totally rock the world with some sweet sound hey if u don't mind when u get the LT headers record sound and post on here i have been wanting to hear wut it would sound like with one on thanks alot dude

2000Mustang · April 12th, 2007, 09:07 PM

If I did do the headers, what is the best set-up? Headers, cats? (I'm in MO), H-pipe, mufflers (currently IMCO), dumps? If I did that i'd have alot of parts for sale.

ESG-642T · April 12th, 2007, 09:11 PM

I would do headers & udp....

Catless 40s sound mean with Lts

2000Mustang · April 12th, 2007, 09:14 PM

I think i'll just di the headers and stick with my current exhaust set-up. I want to move foreward, not redo what has already been done. 1 or 2 no 1 1/2

ESG-642T · April 12th, 2007, 09:22 PM

Lts & Udp

the rest of the stuff is kinda pointless

2000Mustang · April 12th, 2007, 09:24 PM

Anyone else want to be a witness to the fact that the coil, and wires are pointless? I just want to know before I buy them and they do nothing.

ByPopularDemand · April 12th, 2007, 09:35 PM

Well from exp ive had on my car, the LT's gave me more pep than the pulley did

Sam'sWildStang · April 12th, 2007, 09:38 PM

haha i'll prolly feel dumb for asking, but what are Lt's?

Sam'sWildStang · April 12th, 2007, 09:39 PM

....longtubes?

2000Mustang · April 12th, 2007, 09:45 PM

Yea

Clayhistorian · April 12th, 2007, 09:51 PM

So did you factor in a shortymid pipe or are you looking for peole to fab the mids for you? LTs wont fit a regular mid

2000Mustang · April 12th, 2007, 09:53 PM

They will fab one for me
