So im getting paid tommorow and im gonna allow about $600 of that for the mustang...Mostly stock, just a triax and an offroad H pipe.
Its due for inspection in about 2 months and will need front and rear brakes. Im replacing them with Cobra parts.. At the same time ill be installing my 3.73's and Detroit trutrac..

options:
1. 3.73's, install kit, SCT tuner. $575
2. Cobra brakes F/R $650
3. Magnaflow cat back $500
4. New headlights, HID kits from vvme, grill delete $420

option 4 should be more like ~300 if you know where to shop

i vote for option 1 man, most seat of the pants feel with the gears

You said you will be installing your 3.73s with detriot trutrack.....but then you list getting 3.73s and a tuner etc.....so do you have 3.73s already or need to get them? Like you said, you are going to need brakes, so the obvious thing is to upgrade the brakes since you NEED them anyways

thanks for the input guys... I decided on the tuner and gears... used the tuner to shut down my rear o2's which were throwing a code and throw in the 91 tune..
i have already a 31 spline detroit trutrac and 31 spline FRPP alloy axles... so the gears and install kit were the finishing pieces.

next week ill pick up the brake parts i need. Then ill install the brakes and gears at the same time.

SCT has junk as far as insturctions... but i think im happy with the tuner...

thanks for your input guys...
