My wife has been so gracious as to ALLOW me to spend a little money on modifications for my 2003 GT. I've taken care of the exhaust system, but I'm not sure which direction to go now. I've got about $4100 to spend. I'd love to get a P1sc, but by the time I've gotten it and the extras needed, plus dyno time I'll have spent that and probably more. There's always superchargers on ebay or here in the forums, but you never know for sure what you're gonna get. Should I do more bolt ons? maybe new heads? I don't know, I can' decide. Any opinion/suggestion will be appreciated.

Your wife is a member on these forums isn't she.

Man that is AWESOME! If you can't find a s/c for a good price then I would try to do the following-

Lowering kit
Reflash
TB
MAF
Exhaust (did you say you already had that?)

There's too much you can do so I'll let the other guys jump in. By the way I hate you. jk

What do you want to do? What is your plan? Show, go, or corner-carver?

Some options:
Wheels and tires. Step up to at least a 9 inch wide wheel
Shifter. pro 5.0 or steeda tri-ax
lower car with shocks/struts, cc plates
Subframe connectors
Stteda x2 balljoint and bump steer (I have them and car corners better)
Upper and lower control arms
Aluminium drive shaft
Locate battery to trunk

See my sig for more ideas.

Mongoose Kit from T & J Performance. I haven't yet seen 1 person with a problem. They have a great rep on this site. And it'll get you some more power for sure!

If I decide to go supercharger, I'm definitely sold on the Mongoose Kit. Thanks for pointing that out. I'd been looking at ebay, but getting a s/c that way just doesn't sit well with me.

KB twin screw is the only option that you have. Oh, make it stick out of the hood, a big roots s/c sticking out of the hood

dude...save a few more bucks and go with the Cobra Killer kit at www.modularfordpowerhouse.com I got the Novi 2000 kit. IMO, its the best bang for the buck. you won't ever have to fill nitrous bottles, it's always there if you want to play Tim's tune is the best, IMO Good luck
