What should I do?

My vote is heads, but I would wait until I also had the cam and lower/upper intake as well. If they have to be removed at the same time, better to have them reinstall better components... and Congrats

You want power or looks? Wheels IMO are always a good place to start. It just totally changes the attitude you have for your car and makes you love it more. The gears would be great for you also.

First and for most a big congrats on graduating. I would do rims fist ONLY to give you more time to think about what direction you plan on taking the car. Throwing 4.10's in only to have to remove them later because you decided to go power adder would suck and be a waste. Then again giggle gas is a pretty cheap mod

Myself it would be wheels....Nothing better than a nice set of wheels...Everytime you walk up to it, it'll make you say ..Damn that looks nice..

Congrats and good luck with the new career...sounds like youv'e got a good start....

Jessie, I didnt know you didnt have gears

That is FIRST...Go 373's though.

I'm goin with Rio and JR, wheels will really spruce up your cars looks a ton. I wanna get some chrome 18's as an extra set of wheels (for shows, keepin the 17's for the track and for autocross) when I get out of school.

HEADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And a cam.

And I'll put it all in.

Or... suspension.
Nice set of subframes and jacking rails... or springs... or rear control arms... or all of the above.

When I graduate... I want a sick top end for a 351W unless I save up enough by then.

congrats on graduating!

wheels. wait on the gears until you decide if you are going to get a supercharger.

heads should be done with a cam, intake, and computer flash. done right, all that can cost $2500 easy. get some wheels while you are researching the combo you want.

you suck at teh intraweb

Jess, if your interested, MY Chrome 03 Cobra wheels are for sale.. along with the Keanen SVO R Hood, and some other body parts.. Let me know if you or Kyle might be interested.

I think I fixed it....

hmm, depends how far ur job is too (how steep of gears you're willing to go)

i thought everybody recommended 4.10 for an aode? oh well

personally, if i had a job where i could save up for a few weeks and throw on one of those beasts jr just put on, i'd do that (kb supercharger that is). then from that, you decide on the rest

Hey MIke, Paint that hood E9 for me and Ill buy it

Jess, If you have lots to do, and youre not too picky with the wheels as long as theyre nice, I would go for his Cobra Chromes..Save some money for other stuff. If you have a REAL desire for another type of rim, then save for that.

If you dont want chromers, I would go for the bullit deep dishes with the black centers...they are really cheap and would look good on your car, specially if you do the black lettering out back and paint the tail bezels black.

Awesome, Mike I'm very interested in your '03 cobras! With or w/o tires? I'll IM you tonight for details. The weather said it's supposed to clear up; Kyle and I are going to wash our stangs and take some pics of the new paint job!

Thanks for the input guys, I do agree. Since I honestly haven't had much time to think about my project stang...... I think I'll do wheels first because I hate these waffles lol! Then, I'm thinking heads/cam after that!

EDIT: AHHHHH owned by the internet! Kyle logged me out! This is Jess lol

I voted for wheels but as for the power aspect its to broad. You could do heads $1,000 or a supercharger $3,000 + thats a big gap inbetween. What power goals do you want w/ the car? If around 300 RWHP is fine w/ you then do H/C/I and you will be all set, if you want 400 + then your going to need that plus a supercharger.

You have to decide what you want more as well, looks or power? Its a touch choice. If you want the looks go w/ the rims, if you want the power then the heads/cam would be a good choice unless you want to get a supercharger.
