+1

shadow5403 · April 7th, 2008, 02:58 PM

Oh, and make sure you get the ceramic coated LTs from MAC.

whitemustang02 · April 7th, 2008, 04:18 PM

id say get the Pacesetter headers, they are cheaper and probably about the same or better quality then the mac's.

and +1 to what is your budget and goals.

02v6staang · April 8th, 2008, 12:56 PM

i have a small budget. id say id have about 300-400 to spend evry month. wheres a good place or brand for an h-pipe?

itschristorres8 · April 8th, 2008, 01:08 PM

delkperformance.com sells a bolt up h pipe to long tubes

you can do underdrive pulleys-- Redlined Performance Mustangs or VMP Tuning Inc
a tuner, xcal2, livewire, xcal3 or sniper--- VMP Tuning Inc
or you can get a ported upper or lower intake for under $300 here:

I'm assuming that means since you already have a cat back, you have a cat-back that goes into the factory y-pipe? If so, get ceramic coated headers, and get an exhaust shop to fab up an H-pipe (they will need to cut off and replace the y-pipe section of the cat-back). After that go with gears and t-lok.

GreenFaleen · April 8th, 2008, 01:49 PM

thats a pretty decent budget in all reality I say do a windsor intake swap. As for the clutch I like Spec and Clutch masters, centerforce is good but i dont like how they feel

02v6staang · April 9th, 2008, 01:04 PM

What site sells spec clutches?

RavensChild · April 9th, 2008, 01:27 PM

GF and Chris- with the windstar intake my CAI wont fit, correct? Will a CAI still fit on the car with one? What is the increase in power with it?

wadepetersen · April 9th, 2008, 01:34 PM

i would say get your exhuast done
and from there get gears and tlock
tuner
windstar intake
