My buddy has a 91 Fox hatch back Bimini blue. Street car, still has a/c & heat. He’s hitting the cross roads on what to do with it to make more power. When we started discussing there’s so many options.
Current:
Stock short block
TF 185 heads
TF intake system
100hp Nitrous (can flow 250)
MSD ignition system, Digital 6
5-lug swap, 31 spline strange rear end
UPR uca, lca, coilovers
Stock t5
Trying to keep it within reason, budget 6-9k
Do you build a pushrod short block?
Sell off the parts and look for a coyote combo?
Maybe find a cobra take out to put in?
Build a mod motor?
Sell the car, restart?
Goals:
Highway capable street car
600-700hp (capability)
Retain amenities- power steering, heat, (a/c up in the air, don’t use it much in Midwest)
All suggestions appreciated, just started this venture. No idea where it’ll end up.
