Probably needs to be in the general discussion section:

Gears
CAI or RAI
Intake spacer (min 1/2")
Rear lower control arms
Dyno tune with chip or hand held
Electric water pump - same as underdrive pullies without risk of oil pump failure

I'd say 4.30s, JLT RAI, Predator tuner and a good set of D/R's Ive had the best luck with the BFGs they seem to be a little more forgiving and real world daily driver friendly than the M/T esp in rain. Hope to see you up at NED!

buzzzsaw · 07-23-2009, 08:22 AM

SCT tuner......then u can build up..

Gameboy_J · 07-23-2009, 03:23 PM

If you have LT's then good, if not then get some. I have 4.10's on my mach...I would recommend going with 4.30's personally.

Mach_1 · 07-23-2009, 03:45 PM

You need JLT RAI, Diablo flip chip, Intake spacer, MGW shifter, lower control arms, after that get headers and x pipe dont worry about cat back it wont help power as much as header.

I have a flip chip i made 320/318 for 50$ when you get ready
