BLUEDEVIL02 · 04-01-2008, 09:12 PM

Hey everbody, I got a 02 GT and its just not putting out like I think it should. I've already serviced it and put a tune up on it. Any ideas on the best solution?

I saw you heading down 202 today when i was leaving the depot, your car looks pretty good. If i had a 2v i would do a cai, exhaust, gears, tune & nitrous. Also some d/r for the traction. If funds allow i would do a blower like a Kenne Bell or the Ford Racing Whipple if they make it for your car.

Oh & welcome to the board.

So its acting like a woman?

Sorry couldn't resist. Is the car a five speed or auto?

yeah if its an auto i would do a shift kit and aluminum driveshaft just to lesson the rotational mass.

how much money are we talking?

BLUEDEVIL02 · 04-02-2008, 01:03 AM

yeah its woman, and a five speed. I was tryin to stay away from nitros, i just aint never liked it. The cars got 60 k miles on it, will a blower be safe on a stock motor and rearend. I plan on spending a lot of money on the car but its gonna have to be spread over a long time period. Somewhere around the 6500. dollar range.

spend the 6500 on building the motor so later on when you add a blower or something you dont blow it up quick

Gear,exhaust and a tune to start out with.

Do at least a 4.10 gear in it

BLUEDEVIL02 · 04-02-2008, 09:13 AM

What kind of 1/4 mile times would I be lookin at with a 4:10 gear? How much more gas money would I be payin?
