What's up guys? I have a '96 GT and i'm looking for ideas as to what to buy next. I have an offroad H-pipe and an intake so far and i'm looking for some more power. I don't wanna mess with gears or anything like that. I was basically wondering what you guys thought would get me the most power, intake manifold, throttle body, something like that. thanks for the help

I know that you don't want to mess with getting gears, but they would probably be the best bang for the buck.....

save up, get the PI head upgrade. it uses the heads from 99+ GT's, which flow better and give you more hp.

All a PI head upgrade is a swich to the 99+ heads and intake.

Do the PI heads mount right up to the intake or whatever? Or is there some fabrication that must be done to get them to fit? Is it a simple swap or do you have to manipulate the pistons and all that other stuff? I'm asking because I'd like to do it myself if its not to involved. Sorry for hijackin your thread..

it's cool, i'm just as interested. Hell if they are coming off a newer car, i'm sure it's cheaper to go to a junkyard and pick up that up rather than buying a new one online.
