I just got a 95 GT Vert and im wondering what to put on her?

I want some shorty headers,underdrive pulleys, and CAI (already got flowmasters)

Just wondering what particular brand or does it really even matter?

don't get mac shorties. they have individual tubes rather than a solid flange and they warp and blow gaskets constantly.

I've never had this problem and my macs have been on my car for over 6 years, the engine even overheated twice. I put in a fresh engine and the headers were perfectly straight and fine too

None, do gears instead. But if you must- go under-drive pulley.. although I felt zero difference with them on my 5.0 too, peeps say yo uactually make gains with them..

Yes ... Steep Gears will give the most noticeable gain :Word:

If you were to do catback, shortys, pulleys, and CAI all at once

The gears would still be a good bit more noticeable than all that
other little bolt on stuff
