So cal
So Far, plans I dont want to tear into the Heads or anything until Im ready to build the the bottom end and then have the cash for h/c/I, that will come in about 2 years...but as for bolt-ons what else should I do with around $500, Thats about all the cash I have to put into the stang right now...and I dont want Nirtrous or save for heads, or cam thats in the distant future.. what else Can i do for some gains for $500, Susp is pretty much really good, I was thinking of FPR and C&L 73 MAF to complete my Intake...any suggestions on what else to get for performance? Im also really considering swaping to 4.30's to get every bit of acceleration out of my car.
I have good compression 306, stock RR, Intake mani,
E-cam
BBk CAI
Pro products 70mm Throttle body
Mac Shorty Headers
Underdrive pullies
Hi flow catted H-pipe 2 1/2"
Flowmaster(soon to be mac pro dumps)

coil, 9mm wires, Good plugs(not sure which), Alum 3 core radiator, new high amp alternator,

Suspension DriveTrain
pro 5.0 shifter
4.10's
King cobra clutch
subframe connectors
Lower control arms
Eibach Springs
Drag Shocks/struts
Rear Sway bar
Remove front sway bar for good transfer, Car pulls 1.8 on street tires so supension is pretty good
Good sticky 295 tires in the rear
Car runs 14.3@98 with 2.0 60 ft. uncorrected, 13.5@10x at sea level with 1.9 60 ft corrected
 
do you have 4:10's in a t5 car? is it a track car?
i can't really badmouth the c&l maf, but i'm not too happy with mine. i guess its ok for the money, but i think if i did it again, i'd wait and spend a little more on a better one...

you could go with an e-fan... it looks like you have most bolt-on's already... maybe relocate your battery? do you need the cats for emissions? if not, maybe try an offroad x or h pipe and smog delete.
 
Used 1.7 roller rockers $100-150

save the cash and your that much closer to upgrading the engine, IMO if the engine isnt burning oil and has good compression i would but a set of iron gt-40 heads and cobra intake, they would match the E-cam well and the car would come alive and give you the acceleration your looking for. you have alot of mods and stuff but still running stock heads and intake which is killing the car, with better intake and heads along with everything you have now. the car would run excellent.
