Whats next

[Josh02GTvert]

Kind of a New b to the mod thing and I am wondering what is the next step to take on my stang. I have a Mac CAI with 85 MM Mas Air and a Mac Pro chamber off road mid pipe. I am going to get some Mac Flow path mufflers soon, but it is after this that I dont exactly know what is the best way to go. Just looking for a little advice on what would give me the most bang for my buck.
Thanks!!

answer these questions and we can greatly help you.

-what is the car's main purpose (daily driver, drag car, auto x car)?

if its a daily:
-are you more interested in performance gains or cosmetic gains?

if performance gains:
-are you more interested in straight line power or handling?

I would throw in a set of FRPP 4.10 gears! Cost me $400 for parts and labor, but well worth it.

The car is my daily driver right now. My goal is to have a well-rounded car so both cosmetic and Power gains. What my plan was is to get my car professionally tuned after I got one or two more power boost parts then move on to the cosmetic side of things. Not really looking to tear up the track just don’t want to be left in the dust either. Thanks for all your input I really appreciate your help.

A tune is simply not needed with your basic bolt-on's. It's nice, sure but, not exactly essential to make decent power. Once you start really messing with A/F, then consider a tune. And as far as a balance is concerned, you still have to be a bit more specific.

Will the car see track time?
If so, what kind of track?

Out of the box our cars are nothing to write home about as far as our performance goes. Paint your canvas how ever you wish but be prepared for some pretty bland and repetitive answers as far as opinions about modifications to -your- car.

Take it all into consideration and don't waste money on the same type of mod twice. Do research and look at other sites and don't trust advertising. With that said, good luck and just have fun.

I'll bet that a search will reveal that 9 out of 10 people (myself included) will recommend gears, and that 7 out of 10 of those (myself included) will recommend 4.10 gears.
