Going to the local u-pull-it, ive picked up front and rear sway bars its GREAT. and at 10 bux a piece how can you pass it up! They have a full TC with a 5 speed, and 8.8 rear! I hope itll be cheap, im guessing a 5 speed and an 8.8 will help me out. No real performance yet but im working on to a base that i can build hp on. O ya i have the sway bars and i am about to fab a CAI. Should i get new shocks and better wheel and tire combo, or should i keep my 195/75 14s? i THOUGHT not. ya its a toss up between lowering springs and shocks. New drivetrain. or just do turbo and work from there. I figured working from the ground up will be my best bet. Help me out, Thanks!

Do the suspension first, you'll appreciate it. I've got all the stuff in my sig, and the car feels *way* better than stock. Only now do I feel that it's ready to have some turbo power behind it.

i have a question on an 89? alright just to play it safe I had seen a couple wires running into tho air box. if i ran a CAI into the fender with just a tube and then a filter at the end. would i have to somehow plug the wires into it, or could i just have an air cleaner then tubing then straight into the tb? or is it a MUST that i plug the wires in? thanks fellas!
