Well what can i get? I so badly want a catted midpipe, unless someone is selling one for that price i dont see it happening. My 97 GT vert is all freaking stock becept the basic... like catback and k & n.

Now i dont have a job currently, so i might just spend this little money on something else. Anyways list some things i can get for the car. Only thing ican think of is MGW shifter.

(o/r midpipes are a no-no )

I have a new PI intake with metal crossover you can have for 120 shipped it's not a bad mod for a NPI car.

-some cleaning supplies- on top of that
-new fuel filter- just changed trying to track down a starting problem

Ya, thats all i could think of myself I love anything that makes the car more fun to drive. YOu know like the 1st days you get a new exhaust.. makes the car feels new when your driving it. I heard good things about the MGW shifter which is spaying over on me.

How bout some subframe connectors, they're not too pricey, and might help the handling on that vert.

You can get some ford racing c springs for that price. Nice drop and much more fun to drive.

all you need is a set of PI intake gaskets.. somebody stole the gaskets out of this intake kit.. thats how I ended up with it. so PI intake gaskets and some blakc RTV and you will be all set.. I can show you in pics where the rtv goes.

I 2nd a set of springs. I lowered vert looks really good, and it will handle better.

Youll be hard pressed to find a decent shifter for 135 bucks, I think the cheapest is the Steeda Tri-Ax, or the UPR Blue Thunder, around 160. I wouldnt bother with a "cheap" short throw like Mac, or Steeda's "Sport Shifter".
