Re: $800 to spend!
gears will make the biggest difference. you might have enough left over to do a shifter and an induction mod or 2. 13s is a little much to ask with just that little.

99-04 GT manual + 3.73 should let you break 13's if you can drive.

Re: $800 to spend!
Yes, it's a manual. and I'm not sure how well I can drive. I should probably take it to the track and see what I run so I know how much I need to gain with my mods to get into 13s. And perhaps exhaust really isn't worth the $500 or so odd dollars?

Re: $800 to spend!
Meziere electric water pump, Part number WP346 will free up atleast 10hp, and it's a stealthy mod. I saw 11hp. Oh under drive crank pulley and alt pulley only added another 3hp--which could have just been the difference from one day to another..
Do a lightweight aluminum flywheel (if you pull your own wrenches) and loose some of that rotational mass and then do gears. That will help you.

Re: $800 to spend!
isn't it illegal to drive on public roads with 'off road' pipes? and I was under the impressesion that 4.10s were quite steep for normal driving conditions. When you change gear ratios...what do you feel differently? oh yeah...and a lightweight crank pulley is worth a good 5-10hp. the more weight you take off your crank the more hp you gain.

Re: $800 to spend!
waste of money. you can get all that crap for well under a grand if you know where to look, and steeda doesn't make the best stuff anyway.

Re: $800 to spend!
Yeah, I figured it was a bit over priced. Do you know where I could get that stuff cheaper? Plus..how much does it cost to have gears/shifter installed? I can't do those myself. Plus what about recalibrating the speedo?

Re: $800 to spend!
shifter you can do yourself. have a reputable shop do your gear. costs a lot more but it's well worth it. they'd probably put the right speedo gear in it. you can get speed parts from ebay and summit and all sorts of other places listed in mustang mags. i'd check there.

Re: $800 to spend!
couple hundred bucks usually, more for the best shops. you also have to buy the gear and new bearings+seals. will probably come to about $400
