i have a 96 also but mine is black, put up some pics!
anyway, i went high-flow cats (get rid of all those srtock ones), dynomax mufflers (stock catback, didnt see myself wasting all that money for shiny tips) tri-ax shifter (otherwise you WILL blow your t-45 because of thta weak pin) k&n (stock one was dirty) and removed air silencer. next i will probably put gears, maybe pullies or something. i persoally do not like CAI, its a ricer mod and doesnt really do naything for intake, if you do it you will either waste $200 or you should go the home sepot route and use pvc. i talked to svt the other dya on overheating, my engine is fine, but they still gave me some helpful hints because the L is hot in my opinion, when i ru nthe air on max and its 100 outside on my black car i barely touch the a, but stay closer to the r and m on normal days. change your anti-freeze and put fresh half water and half anti-freeze in it. you engine is smart and will not overheat, it will cut off the a/c AUTOMATICALLY if its too hot, then if it gets even hotter it will cut off a bank od cylinders, if it begins to over heat it will go into a safety mode and shut off the engine. sorry about legnth, just a little helpful info for you.
