i've got $150 in my paypal account that i cant send to my bank account that i want to use on my stang. only things i can think of performance wise woudl be a TB, or a clutch quadrant & firewall adjuster.

i was leaning towards teh quad & adjuster, but thats only like, $80 after shipping. what else could i get? performance, looks, etc.

You should get a 75mm TB to go with the ported plenum you got, they show some decent gains on blown engines. Accufab is top of the line, but expensive. BBK or Dragon are a little less $ wise.

Whats goin on with the five niner? Selling it for mod money or keeping it for a secondary vehicle?

well i just bought a steeda firewall adjsuter and quadrant from stangsuspension becasue i need them. so now i have like, $75 left.

the niner i was GOING to sell, and pay off 1/2 of my stang loan with it, adn keep 1G just as backup cash, but now my sister is going to be using it to commute, since her jeep is on its last legs.

that is once i put teh motor back together - sold my edelbrock heads, mopar intake manifold, comp cam so i odul afford the stang!

and my stang came with teh SS inserts already

Buy a shorty antenna....as I've explained before, offers reduced weight in the front end, less drag due to improved aerodynamic air flow....and just looks really cool. Or some stickers maybe, I've seen a really nice vinyl set of V-Tard graphics you could put on the side. Maybe a "Type-R" emblem? All proven HP mods.


Seriously though...for what you have left, either spend it on something else or buy some sort of appearance mod....not much in terms of power you can do for 70 bucks.

spend the money on women?! WTF are you guys thinking?

Spend $50 more and get some nice steeda pullies if you don't already have them.

Plus you can take any chick out to a fast food restaurant and they'll be happy. They don't need frickin steak and lobster.

If it's in your paypal account, request the debit card and treat your lady right. Putting bushings or anything else for that little dough on the stang won't get you nookie

Dude, you are missing one VERY important mod.

SUBFRAMES!

Get some Maximum Motorsports subframes, stiffen up that ride and get more of your power to the ground.

Worth every penny.
