4.6 help (were to start)

bigwhitecobra · 01-04-2006, 09:20 AM

If I was starting off with a pretty much unmolested GT and was looking to get blown in the relative near future, I would invest in a set of heads, cam, maybe a P-51 or Riechard intake, Mass Air Meter(80mm or bigger) long tubes, and a good flowing muffler. Gears---everybody is different. I run 4.10's in mine as a daily driver and still see 22-23mpg. Granted I drive like grandpa to get that around town.

You will deffinately need a good tune, especially if you get half of the stuff I just mentioned. Good thing now days is that you can reflash your chip/ computer as many times as needed, and while on the dyno. (Not sure what your level of experiance is with tuning) Anyway, you are certainly on the right track with this car. If you need any advice, or want to order something feel free to give myself or any other reputable shop a call.

Thanks for all the info. I don’t want more than 400 to the wheels. It is a car that I might want to drive somewhere and i want it to be reliable. But I would like a solid 12 sec car. I don’t know anything about tuning a fi car so I need to find a good place around Oklahoma City how hard is it to get the 12s with a 4.6
