i have a 97 gt and all i have installed is a x-pipe, flowmaster catback, king cobra clutch and steeda short shifter. i want to improve my throttle response so i have decided to invest in a new intake manifold and throttle body, but i don't have PI heads. what do yall think would be a smart move?

thanks for the advice

nope.

It's worth a solid 15-20hp. I gained 2 mph in the 1/8 with the intake.

all you have to do is put a little sealant around 2 coolant ports,(1 on each head)

here is a pic of a npi head with a pi gasket
