Steeda T/A is a great mod for low end tq

Nevermind, I just saw that you had a chip. How about steeper gears e.g. 4.10's

longtubes are the only cheap mod that will give you low end. a roots or screw superchanger will will give you tons of low end. if you want low end n/a increase your displacement. you could use a deeper gear as well if you are staying n/a.

Nothing left to do with just bolt-ons and you already bumped up your timing with your chip.

4.10's or 4.30's would help it feel like you have more low end power.

Longtubes won't give you any more low end power. See this graph if you want to compare:

You will have a hard time getting low end power from a bolt on...hearders, exhaust and any other bolt on are mainly upper power band gains ;-)! by the way 22hp on tb and plenum- bwhahahahahahahahahahahaahahah!! I know the accufab plenum is supposed to help all the way thru the power band, but I have one...and it doenst offer much gain but worth getting.

But, to answer your question...If you dont want to increase your cubic inches, or get a super charger....you should geta lower gear. Why do you want low end power so much? That is one of the great things about a mustang, they feel strong on bottom end for a 4.6L. motor. Stangs normally suffer on the big end.

undefinedThe Steeda GT cold air intake for about $200 might give you a little more low end HP, but mostly from 3,000rpm's to redline. Real easy to install.

Hey wutsup man? Bart, if you want low end i'd take a guess at longtubes. But just like i used to tell you all the time, you should've gone with the 4.10's.
-Hey, did you get the chrome Y2K's instead of the silver ones and when do you work again?
-Im still looking at car's and might go with a Nissan 240sx and get the SR20DET engine swap and put down around 400rwhp around Christmas, but we'll see. See ya this weekend

the Bullit intake will give you a good increase in low end power albeit expensive.
