Christmas is Coming...

88-GT · Nov 22, 2004

Well as we all know christmas is coming and at an age of 17 money is tight. So I was wondering if you guys could give me maybe a lil list of good bang for the buck mods I could ask for for christmas. Suspension is doing alrite so mainly just motor mods.

My setup is: Helix TB Spacer(Useless I know,previous owner)
Heddman LT's
Fully redone exhaust(super turbos)
All of supsension mods(in sig)

Yea so any engine mods for around $200-300 US would be cool.

Thnx, Adam

373's, or mine as well ask for cash striaght up to start saving for the TFS package like me

nope, probably going to pull my engine in the next day or so.

i would say the gears are the biggest sotp feel. maybe best gain power wise, especially for the money would be the pulleys. those are kind of hit and miss though, some people have charging and overheating problems, and some people have no problems.

with an electric fan or the alt, i would recommend an upgraded alt. at least 130 amp.

There coming brother, would you believe it started raining the day I picked it up and hasn't cleared up yet! (Typical Arkansas winter) As soon as we get some sunshine I will wash it and get some pics. Right now my new paint job is dirty as hell from driving it in the rain.

i surmised as much (i recall you mentioning bad weather, but that you had cleaned the engine bay, IIRC). i look forward to pics.

88GT, as suggested, gears are the way to go! the other ancillary stuff is nickel and dime stuff, which will support bigger mods in the future.

good luck.

Yea gears were on my mind too, its just a PITA to get them installed where I live, bout 400 bux plus the gears, shims, etc. But yea I really do need them, still got the stock 2.73s Thnx for all your help.
