Welcome to Mustang Works Online. Where generally friendly people gather to talk Mustangs - and stuff

I would consider underdrive pulleys as a 'next' mod, just to keep busy and feel like you're 'doing something' to improve the performance, but frankly, before spending much more money, you need to analyze where you're going.

Think about what you want the car to be when you're finished with it. How much do you anticipate doing to the engine? Supercharger, nitrous or N/A?

What do you want to run? 13's good enough? 12's? 11's?

Daily driver or weekend cruiser? Drags or Road Racing?

All of these factor into your game plan for modifications.

Basically, you'll need better heads, intake, 65mm TB, upgraded FP/regulator and a few other parts to see 13's with ease. Lower et ranges require more aggressive parts or power adders, depending on your goals. You decide.
