[Roushman]

What to do.......I have 1,500 to spend on car and not sure what to get. I have the basic bolt ons plus steiggy, gt pumps, sub frames. Running a lil over 500rwhp so.........

Should I go springs,heat exchanger,that head fix to flow the water evenly,cams,k member, long tubes, bushings to help wheel hop or what.

Who has the answer:shrug: :shrug:

MM Bushings, K member, cooling mod, heat exchanger.

OR sale the ported blower and save the 1500 for a KB or Whipple

springs
h/e lfp dual core
giggle gas

HE & springs for sure. These cars look so much better lowered. Get a Raptor if you don't have one.

Don't spend money on springs.... Cut 1/2 coil and save the money.... do a search... A lot of people are cutting stock springs with GREAT Success!!!!!!!

You'll be glad you did.... Instructions are in posts with pictures..... you'll save yourself $200.00 plus..... Don't buy springs... JMO...

curious to why some of you guys buy K members?

 

[03nightmare]

I'd get level 5 halfshafts, the other things are cheaper and easier to get when money is down.

K members are lighter and give better clearance for things like headers or a turbo set up. You cant just get the k member tho , you have to get the arms and coilovers to work with it. Headers would be a good choice too. Id do the bushings and an IRS brace as well . If you know how to work on your car you can install all that stuff and still have enough money left over to hit the strip club after

Post doesn't really say what you are after, but if you like driving it rather than taking it to the strip, I'd go:

Maximum coilover kit F&R
Maximum steering rack bushings
Billetflow IRS brace
Urethane for the F&R sways and rear subframe

If you need a clutch or are doing the retainer, get the LDC cooling mod done then.

Makes for one sweet handling ride. Just my $.02

Thanks everyone. Looks like I got about 12 different opinions. Funny how that goes. I am leaning with bushings, brace and HE. Still don't know. I do need to sure up the half shafts though.

I want to build up supporting mods for whipple without having to worry about something breaking. I have till end of the yr. Thats when I will buy it with my last bonus check.

HE for sure - no matter what else you do.
