extra $$$ what to get??
in the next 2-4 weeks im not 100% sure but i might be stumpaling across $350 bucks...i was wondering what would be the best investment in the next thing to buy..right now all i have on my car is a K&N,Mac long tubes,off road H and cat back...also keep in mind i could always save a couple bucks from a pay check for something that cost more(example:have $350 save 50/60 bucks for a cobra intake)
tell me what you guys think, also...im not planing on geting $350 and saveing up enough for something like heads or SC...thats to much $$$$, iv got my exhaust done now im thinken of starting on the stuff like mass,TB,intake...would i loss HP with the stock mass and TB and having a cobra intake?(upgrading TB and mass later) ------------------ 1991 GT,T-5,air silencer removed,racing clutch(previous owner put in so dont know what kind),K&N air filter,Aiwa deck,power acoustic amp,2 12" pianeers,UPDATE: Just got my Mac long tube headers and Cat-back By the time summer comes ill have full Mac exhaust,new shifter knob and what ever else i can afford |

Yea, I think you should go with the gears too. They will make a huge difference for the price. Expect to pay $150-180 for the gears and the installation can be anywhere from $150-250. If you do go with the gears, a new shifter would be a good idea because you'll be bangin through those gears faster.

Well..if you get gears for 250 then you will still have another 100 left..So go after a set up underdrive pulleys. But I am not for sure if you will be able to run your subs to well with the underdrive pulleys. So you just got to decide power or subs??

If you get the pulleys, I really doubt you will be able to run the subs. I have pulleys and at night with my lights on, the battery can get kinda low. I'd imagine with the subs going, the battery would be too low. The pulleys are a good mod considering they are usually under $100.
