Go h/c/i and gears and a few suspension mods....5k will get you a long way in a fox

what do you want to do with the car? Drag Race, Auto Cross, or just want something more powerful than you have? By figuring out what you will do with the car will help you get in the right direction for parts.

those are all fairly good suggestions...thanks alot...cept for the turbo (rice) and savings account idea...yeah sure id be smart...but not much fun...new engine sounds like a prety good idea...but why the dss 347? ...oh and the car has 54,000 original on it!!

a turbo is rice when its on a import little four banger. i dont think in anyway a turbo fox is rice. its a good example of what a turbo should be on. i had one dumb ricer try to convince me that you cant put a turbo on a V6 or V8. what a Dumb-Bass.

i might go to the strip a few times...but not alot...i just want a fun street car that can holds its own...right now im leaning towards h/c/i...some suspension work...ignition, injectors, fuel pump...and a good tune........had another question...i bought a cobra rear bumper for a friend...i like how they look on gts but i realized that my exhaust will hang down...do i have to buy a new cat back to make it work...

i came across wrong...sorry...i dont have a problem with turbos...and ur right...if anything they should be on a real car like a mustang...however i just dont like them...i know a guy with one...its just kinda weird hearing a purge of air coming from a mustang...but it is pretty fast...hes putting about 450 to the wheels!

i hate the sound of a bov its cool but it would drive me crazy every single day, seems like u have a strong car, good job on the bumper nice choice, but yes u will need a new catback for it, i love the sound of turndowns but im going to switch to a cobra bumper soon, ur motor seems strong if it only has 54k on it unless it was beat but i doubt it was, u could do a hci and have a strong car, i wouldnt go with turbo or blower to much for me, i like n/a, a good suspension and tires is necessary maybe even before the motor work for a good foundation to build the motor
