what's next??

[mustang6tee8]

after buying my first round of aftermarket parts, im starting to wonder- whats next?? here's what i have:

MM subframe connectors, MM c/c plates, MM quadrant & firewall adjuster, H&R 1.5" springs, motive 3.73's, MGW short throw shifter, K&N FIPK, Pro3i rear lower control arms, and a MAC O/R h-pipe.

im content with the suspension and driveline for now, now im wondering what i can do in the performance side of things. im thinking of a camshaft, since i will most likely be doing a head/intake upgrade this summer. what suggestions do yall have? thanks yall

do the heads/cam/intake all in one shot. I didnt, and have do do it all over again once it gets warm

U/D pulleys for a start

What are your long term goals?

Do you plan to get there in steps?

Would not want to give advise for now that would just be wiped out later.

second that.

What do you want out of your car? street machine? drag track? autocross track? daily driver? show car? sit down and think about what you want as far as these and horsepower goal, driveability goals. Once you get some kind of an idea from that, we'll be better equiped to tell you what we want you to spend your money on

well, its my daily driver car, but i would like it to be an all-around drag/autocross/ street machine.


what does 94gts mean by "do the heads/cam/intake all in one shot. I didnt, and have do do it all over again once it gets warm"?

long terms goals are something around 300rwhp but reliable enough to keep it a daily driven car.

All you gotta do is look at some sigs

it seems like pretty much everyone has upgraded fuel/intake and ignition sytems- what would be good in my case?

would an adjustable fuel pressure regulator be a good upgrade?
what injectors/ fuel pump/ throttle body (maybe even a bigger MAF) combo?

also, ive heard u/d pullies turn the alternator and ps pump slower so they dont operate as well as they should. whats the deal with this?

what ignition components will help give better power?

For a 300rwhp na combo the stock ignition is more than adequate.

I got pulleys and other than the lights dim a bit at night during idle, I got no prob with them.

The answers to some of your Q's have to start with the phrase "it depends upon".

The afpr would fall under that phrase. I don't have one but that is because I tune with a method that requires stock fuel pressure.

Most use 24lb inj's but I use 30's ... again for the same reason I don't use an afpr. This is another one that depends upon if you are gonna get a tune

Tune = 30's no afpr
No tune = 24's & afpr

You will need a maf to go along with the larger inj's

You will need a large intank pump like a 255lph

For heads I'd go with something like TFS, AFR, or Edel

For a cam I'd go custom but others suceed with ots cams

For an intake I'd go with something like TFS Track Heat or Edel RPM

For headers I'd go with LT's

I'd consider a tune but you may can get by without one

All the above is about NA

You may want to consider a Blower or Turbo instead

Good luck with your decisions and just take a look at what other members here have done to obtain your desired goals.
