So the hypothetical question is always what would you do if you had a certain amout of money. Well, what if you had $7000 to put into a stock 95 GT Convertable. Cause I do and I'm want to know the most efficient way utilizing it.

http://www.turbo-kits.com/mustang_turbo_kits.html

for 3800 you're at 397 horse, and 490 torque. Add 1300 for a turbo/ball bearing/ceramic coating upgrade and you're at 5100. There are no dyno results for the upgraded sets, but its logical to assume you get more if you spend more. This is also a bolt on kit, so no fabrication (supposedly). The remaining 1900 could be spent on suspension upgrades to put that power to the ground better, and also some wheels and tires if you want.

Hey guys,

Sorry my resoponse took so long but I had do a mission and couldn't get to the internet. Anyways, my teneative plan is to do what VIPERn94Five-0 said. I'm planning on doing a lot of the work myself so I can get a few more pieces in that way. So far I'm planning a a 347 stroker with new cam, heads, intake, TB, MAF, headders, cats, catbacks, and a body kit. Also thinking of going with a new tranny. (I like the T56.) But I do want it to be ready for the other upgrades in the future.

Here is what I think you should do:

351W Block/Stroked to 408
AFR Heads
FTI Cam
Nice Intake etc.....
Big Turbo or Supercharger

Great Answer. Whatever you do, you gotta go with turbo(s)!

Hey guys,

Well, I'm trying to stay just NA for now I'm looking to get some real good horsepower without tapping either the N20 or the turbo/supercharger YET. That'll be a few upgrades down the road. I guess I'm looking for more direction for that direction. I just don't know what type of components to throw togeather. I've kinda fallen partial to the Edle Performer RPM II as an intake, I've seen as much as a 75hp boost from that. I'm stuck on heads but I like BBK for headers, MAF, and TB. I'm thinking Bassani x pipe and don't know for sure on the cat back (and endless debate.) And I'm pretty sure I'm gunna do the tranny too, (thinkin Tremic.) Well that's it for now, what do you guys think I should do for heads?

start out with the new trick flow kit or the holy kit...add some LT's Prochamber 24# injectors 65mm tb 80mm MAF gears aluminum drive shaft. Then save for a new 331 block and wait for a DIY turbo
