    Alright so im new to car forums lol
    but i have some questions
    ive got a 1994 mustang gt with the 5.0 and i was wanting some advice on the best bang for my buck mods
    im not very old and dont have a whole lot of cash so i wanted to maybe look into cold air intakes, gears, maybe some suspension.

    This should be under tech not tuning.

    But your best bang for the buck mods are:

    Performance: Gears, CAI/UD Pulleys/Intake, Exhaust... I felt each of these.

    Chassis: Springs, Shocks/Struts, Bushings, Tires(/wheels)

    Looks: Keep it ugly... :D

    Subframe connectors are cheap and offer greatly improved handling.

    pullies, gears, bump the timing to 14*...learn to drive it.

    bang for the buck...at least out of the gate to get you a time. Put a bottle on it. for under $600 I pieced together a (used) n2o kit and a msd digital6+ (new). Went 13.1 @ 107 on the stock longblock, shocked a few cars with that setup.

    Hello and Welcome to 94-95 :SNSign:

    We have talked about basic mods
    and
    Kicked around the best bang for the buck mods many times :crazy:

    You could get a lot of good ... basic ... Knowledge with the search feature ;)

    But basically ... gears are one of the best ones :nice:

    Just a tid bit of general info as I see it :D

    Bolt-ons are easy to install but give a sucky gain for the buck spent :bang:

    Exhaust mods sound cool but also give sucky gains :(
    however
    The OEM 4 cat mid pipe is a real restriction :Word:

    On a stocker or nearly stock Stang ... these mods are almost a waste :notnice:

    roller rockers
    throttle body
    meter
    Ignition (BIG TIME no gain mod)

    For a nice gain you will feel :banana:

    I like to do an intake like OEM Cobra or aftermarket Edel/TFS

    On a cool evening ... a good bang for the buck mod is a home made cai which
    can be done for 20 bux or so if you are resourceful ... then ... put a K&N on
    the end of the pipe for an additional small gain

    See ya around on the site :D
