[QUOTE="Black Cobra '99, post: 16424357, member: 138833"] I wouldn't call these issues, maybe weak points of the gt500. They are certainly among the first mods to do. Heatsoak, stock heat exchanger is really bad and will give you about 5 minutes before IAT2 shoot up and robs power. Wheel hop, this can be dealt with a set of control arms. Finally the shifter, its not bad per se but since its a big part of driving a manual car I would put this on top of my list of mods, go for MGW. Clutch, there is a tsb for it so check if its been done. If not, then consider a new clutch as the stock ones will last anywhere from 15-35K miles. Mine let go around 27K. Other mods to consider, tires tires tires. For easy power an intake and a pulley will net you decent gains and wake the car up. Maybe lowering springs depending on you preferences but I found the gt500 to be too soft. [/QUOTE]
