How goes it my fellow Third-genners? I fell into a little bit of money for Christmas and again asking myself the question how do I get more power? I have the very impressive 5.0 L T.P.I and the only mods I've done are 2 K&N Air Filters, 2.5" pipes w/ a Flowmaster Muffler. Very little, I know, so I'm wondering what you all think would be the best way to get my car faster? I'm not a mechanic and to be honest I suck at the whole car thing but I'm working on it. So easy-to-do stuff would be better or stuff that is already set up and all that good stuff. Thanks again.

Headers and removal of A.I.R. System would be a good start

Or maybe gears

My .02

 

one good start would be posting this in the tpi or tech/gen. engine forums.... but since its here do like flylow said.

3.73 gears and some headers w/ ypipe are what you should start out with. I run 3.42 slp posi with mine and edelbrock shorty headers. They are the best bolt ons to start out with without digging into your motor. Removing the air system is a good way to get rid of some weight and clutter.

 

headers would be good to get to finish your exhaust, what do you have cat wise?

gears would be good also..

 

the cat is basically stock, they replaced it when they did the exhaust but it was a replica. Why type of gears do you recommend and headers?
