I was wondering if you guys can help me, my birthday is coming up in June and I talked my wife into getting me a modification for my 99 GT auto vert so I was wondering what I should get that will give me the most bang for my buck. $100 to $150 is the price rang so what do you think? I was thinking under drive pulleys

:SNSign:

Modification: bassani o/r x-pipe,magnaflow catback exhaust, 4.10s, bbk cold air intake, sub frame connectors, cobra front brack calipers and rotors

You do not have many options in that price range thats for sure. I was thinking along the lines of a tuner such as an x-cal3 or whatnot might help with the auto to get the best bang for the buck, but thats about double want you want to spend.....maybe you can give you the $$ and you can fork some extra into it

They can help out. Are those bbk's that he has the piggy back style ( The one that has the crank pulley that just bolts onto the exsiting crank pulley)? If so, stay away from them, have been known to cause problems

If you get pulleys Steedas are the only decent ones. I think they are worth it. They also increase your mpg.

Do you have a chip/tuner already to correct your speedo and shifts with the 4.10s?? I dont see one in your sig.

I would get a short throw shifter personally. A good one can easily be had for 100-150$

Maybe something like FRPP bullit pedals, billet gas tank door, grill delete, chin spoiler, etc.

Or maybe a shifter knob to go with the auto transmission?

Yea ,I think I'm just going to save the money and buy some headers at the end of next month. What do you recommend? and would $500 be enough?

Do you have a tuner?

If you want headers you should get long tubes and shorty mid pipe to match. If you want cats you wont be able to do it for 500 unless you buy crap parts.
