Ok.. well.. I think I'm going to go with my Steeda Cold Air Intake, 3.90 gears, Roush front sway bar, and Steeda U/D Pullies.

With those items.. is there anything else that's pretty much REQUIRED to get those things to work well with my car?

I only have 2,000 miles on my 2003 GT, so I think the bearings will be ok. Can someone fill me in on anything else that's necessary in order to get the above items installed? Not things that would make it *better*.. just simply things that are needed for them to work properly. Thanks a lot guys.

You need to recalibrate your speedometer... Depending if you have an manual or not you can get a speed cal (manual only), a chip, or an ECU reflash.

I know others might disagree, and some will agree, but I cant see myself spending 250+ dollars on the Steeda intake. I dunno, ive seen too many other things that make more hp like a plenum. Granted its not much, but id rather just get the k&n and be done with it. If you want to clean it up under the hood a bit, just get a c&l inlet tube. Just a personal opinion so just take it as that. Good luck, oh and I think, if your just having someone install the gears, like a reputable shop, theyll have everything you need, not that you will need bearings at 2k miles anywho

Oh yeah, I agree, that Steeda intake money should be spent on a mid pipe instead.
