Money to spend!

[Squad]

Ok, so in February we traded my wifes Stratus for my new 05 Ram and she's been driving the GT since. She's 5 months pregnant now and wants a 4 door car, so the mustang is coming back to me finally. I've been driving it more recently and am getting the sickness again. More power. You can see in my sig the basic bolt ons and stuff I've already done to her.
Here's my list of parts I'm wanting to install in the next 2 months, tell me what you all think.

1. Nitto or BFG drag radials, skinnies up front, 15 inch wheels.
2. Hooker LT Headers.
3. Magnaflow catted x.
4. Springs, caster/camber plates.
5. VT stage 1 cams.
6. Corbeau Forza II seats.

I want her to be strong and reliable, maybe hitting the 275 rwhp mark or so.
Comments, concerns, suggestions?

hmmm i would hate to see you spend money on a car when u have a kid comming....just my 2 cents.

if u want more power...get a retune and go for the friggin aggressive tune

 

[Squad]

It's tuned really as far as it can go, with what I have on her.

 

[tomustang]

you want more skjickiness in the street or the strip'/?

and ur only makin 235? damn...213 stock is really low...

since u have an o/r pipe...have them shorten it and go for some LT's

 

[Squad]

Would like more grunt on the street, yeah 213 is way low, but the norm for autos.

x2 for headers . . . were worth 4 tenths on my car

1. BFG's if they are going to be just for track use, Nitto's for daily driving
3. Dont waste your money if u already have an O/R H-pipe

Save money for the kid.

Save money for the kid.

thank you..someone else agrees with me

 

[Kilgore Trout]

I disagree with #1, the skinnies and drag radials will suck on the street...

 

[IJUSTWON]

no need for skinnies and slicks go for the VT stage 2 sticks with an aggressive tune and you'll have a chance at hitting the 300 mark

 

[Squad]

How would I hit 300 with vt 2s and a tune? I'm thinking just tuning for the cams and the cams themselves would maybe put me around 250 rwhp +-5 hp.

Some people claim they have hit 300 rwhp with full bolt-ons and no headwork so I'm guessing an extremely aggressive cam and a nice tune. Most people say to reach 300 rwhp u need headwork, cams, and full bolt-ons. I would guess with the setup u mentioned u would be right around the 275 mark or so.

First buy the baby everything he/she needs.

Then, buy a shift kit, tranny cooler, and a stall.

Oh god the baby!! Save the baby!! You hot roddin bad Daddy.

J/k I have 3 kids 12,16,and17. I have managed to have children and a Mustang. When they get about 16 put them to work.

Ok do you do your own work? If so I would stick with an OR pipe. I know you got yearly inspection there (or did).
CC plates you may or may not need I picked up some pro3i's and I didn't need them.
Springs/shocks if your set on the bigs and lil's get a drag spring, otherwise pretty much a waste IMO.
Remember st1's is as big as you can go with stock valve springs. stg2's sound nice but the added issue of changing the springs IMO isn't worth it.
If it was me I'd do the stg1's, slap some nitto's on your rims, and throw a bottle in the back. Also some SFC I didn't see those listed.
