Just bought a 96 GT

[paulstalonesi]

Hey guys,
Well ive finally sold all of my Talons and got my self into some good old american muscle. Ive got a few questions about the car though. Firstly, what do people typically do to free up some more horsepower with these cars, like i know intake,exhaust and that shit but what else is pretty common. (the car is a 5spd) Also im going up to the drag races this weekend (its only 1/8 mile(shitty)) but what im wondering is what kind of tire pressure i should be using and if anyone can give me some other advice that would be great!
Thanks
Paul

I just bought myself is 98 gt too, first completely undertand your car condition, do the tune up and replace what ever part need to by fix before thinking about power.

Well it sounds like we come from the same backround Killa, i had 3 talons at one time now the DSM collection is down to 1, as far as a tune up actually it got one done yesterday, so right now the car is in near perfect condition.

Need to do a PI swap for the 96-98GT.

Yeah first you need to get rid of the NPI heads and intakes, you'll still need a power adder on top of a PI swap if you want to make anything quick though.

What does PI stand for, i know the guy who owned it before me changed i think the intake manifold from the stock plastic one to a metal one, if thats what u guys are refering to...let me know

PI = Performance Improved

[paulstalonesi]

Im still not really understanding, you guys are saying i should replace the intake manifold with a Performance Improved one, how come? And how much money would that cost?
