Well. I have spend the last week ripping the car apart and installing some aftermarket goodies. Finnally got it done and all I can say is WOW. Installed Billet LCAs, UCA, Panhard bar, Ford Racing shifter, eibach pro lowering springs, JLT CAI, 2.6 upper, Idler, and Tune. Car is like a diffrent animal. Now all I need is new tires and that will be next week. Think Im going with the nitto DR. Pics to follow.

Damn Lightning, you have been busy. How do you like the FRPP shifter? Mine came on my KR and I trully love it. 2nd to 3rd is just one short move to the right. Have yet to miss 3rd with this shifter. Your going to love all that new power. Should put you way up in the 500+ HP range. JLT has some great tunes. The F1's really suck for tires on these vehicles. That's why i am going with the Nitto's also but my lower brackets aren't welded in so i am going with the 555R's instead. Car will probably never see any track time.

Yeah, manowar is selling me his dual pass afco. I will be installing it next week sometime. Going with Nitto 555 extreme 305/40 r18 on the rear and havent decided on the front yet. I also installed a bassani exhaust no long tubes yet have 3" all the way back with 4" tips, O/R X pipe. It sound great. As for the power I can tell a big diffrence but cant hook with these tires. I will snap some pics tomorrow for all you guys up north in that storm....LOL

Revan H/E

i did similar mods 2 days ago - CAI, 2.65, Revan H/E, 3.73's Eibach Sportlines and a JLT tune...it's ALOTmore responsive, and much more low-end torque....But the H/E in my opinion is the best bang-for-the-buck, as it keeps timing from being pulled....Get the H/E!
