I bought a silver 01 GT the other day and now I'm trying to decied where to begin and I have some questions. The car is my daily driver so my goals in modding it are to pep it up a bit and get some more performance out of it to make it more fun to drive. I live in Wylie Texas which is out near Garland and Sachse so if anyone knows of some good place to have some of this work done I would appreciate if you'd share.
4.10 gears - What type of shop do I need to take it to and what questions would I need to ask to make sure they know what they are doing? I live in Wylie Texas and I think the obvious choice may be Dallas Mustang which is close to where I work.
C&L Truflow Inlet Tube - Do you have to buy the filter box at the same time or can you use the tube to replace the accordian hose and leave the air fliter alone till later.
Steeda UD Pulleys - Do you have to buy a new belt when you put these on or do they use the original belt?
Steeda Springs - Are these hard to put on by yourself or should I have a shop do em. And, for that matter, are they a decent product? Do I need to change the shocks at the same time?
Triax Shifter - Is this a project I could do myself? Im new to working on my own car would this be a way to get my feet wet relatively safely?
Plenum - I was considering the one by Steeda but would I be happy with it or is it overrated?
Subframe Connections - I understand from what I have read that you really ought to have these suckers welded on to get teh most benefit from them but again I'm not sure what type of shop to take the car to to have it done.
Muffler - Right now the car is stock. This is the muffler I was thinking of having put on, or can I put these on myself? Muffler . I don't know how to weld so if they need to be welded in then I'll have to take it to a shop. And for that matter I need to do some hunting on the net to see if I can find a recording of em.
X Pipe - Probably gonna go with the Dr. Gas one.
So If anyone can enlighten me with your own experiences with these mods or types of mods I would be grateful to know what I was getiing in to before I started.
