Hey Guys,
I have been a chevy muscle car restorer for a long time and have always used those as my daily drivers. I wanted something newer and switched to the Ford side and bought a 2001 Mustang GT, 5 speed (30,000 miles). Most of the aftermarket mods seem fairly straight forward but I want to get the most bang for my buck. It is a daily driver never sees track use and my wife will use it also. Do I install a new plenum and T/B OR install 3.37 gears? I only have the money for one or the other. I have a few questions if I go with the T/B and Plenum. How will this effect the emissions, will I pass. Will the gas mileage change much and how will it effect the computer? I don't want radical so I figured to install the 70mm not the 75mm. Your thoughts... Also it seems like the two of choice are the Accufab or the C&L. What recomendations do you have and where is the best place to buy them. If I go with gears I will install 3.73 gears because of the highway driving. Also, do you have any thoughts about installing a cold air induction at the same time. I realize this is a lot but I appreciate all of your help. I live in Fallston just north of Baltimore, would like find out about clubs to learn more, let me know.
