Ok so I have my exhaust and cold air intake...the basics. I really don't know what I'm going to do next. I'm waiting until I get my tax money before getting a new rear end, so thats out. What do you guys think should be next?

1) Finish exhaust...LT headers and mid-pipe
2) MGW Short Shifter
3) ASP 25% Underdrive Pulley
4) Sniper Tuner
5) Ignition Coil, Wires, and Spark Plugs

Fell free to give any other options as well. I'm just trying to get all the basics down, before I head towards the motor.

gears, t-lock, tuner to recalibrate your speedometer and make your car faster.

motorhead6776 · January 4th, 2008, 12:55 AM

id say tuner, pulleys, exhaust in that order. that and ive heard that not much can be done to improve upon the ignition asides from wires and copper motorcraft plugs(stock replacement)... just my semi noobish opinion

Ninjawafers! · January 4th, 2008, 12:56 AM

hes waiting on the tax money before getting the rear end v601. i would say finish the exhaust then get udp. after that sniper tune then short throw and then the coil pack/wires/plugs

coil packs, wires, and plugs will make the engine fire more efficient and make the engine more responsive.

motorhead6776 · January 4th, 2008, 01:00 AM

hmmmm where are these coil packs you speak of? ive always had a hard time finding performance ignition parts for my car?

GreenFaleen · January 4th, 2008, 01:15 AM

tuner exhaust shifter in that order then the rest of the stuff

scxc15 · January 4th, 2008, 01:26 AM

Do short shifters really help much? I mean does anyone know 1/4 before and after times. I mean I know alot has to do with the driver, but I was just curious. I plan on getting one regardless, but it never hurts to ask.

Ninjawafers! · January 4th, 2008, 01:28 AM

just shortens the time to shift between the gears... so depends on how fast you can shift

scxc15 · January 4th, 2008, 01:29 AM

Maybe I'll wait until the track opens to install it and do a before and after time, just for kicks.

ESG-642T · January 4th, 2008, 01:34 AM

Ignition wont do much unless his stock equipment isn't doing very well.

scxc15 · January 4th, 2008, 01:40 AM

Nothing does much for our cars except power adders and gears lol.

scxc15 · January 4th, 2008, 01:44 AM

Im so excited about the near rear end tho and the rest of my mods. I have a friend with a brand new SI and he keeps saying I cant beat him without a supercharger.....I laugh

pilot37 · January 4th, 2008, 04:30 AM

i know it wont help performance...maybe like .01 on the 1320, lol...
but get the short throw imo. i cant stand how lame the stock shifter is

MWWarlord · January 4th, 2008, 04:40 AM

Get the tuner first. Then just save your money till your taxes come in. That way you know you'll have enough for the rear and gears. If you have anything left over then finish your exhaust.
