You can put an o/r midpipe on there to squeeze out just a couple more horses, doesnt cost very much and will add a nice sound as well. And you can always focus on suspension too, people dont really realize this but suspension makes your car faster too. Subframe connectors isnt very costly either.

it's got both an o/r x pipe and ford racing sport springs...
oh and i bought the car from my bros friend he had rearended a mini van in it, it still needs a new hood and the front clip repainted... it has 75,000 mi on the car itself but the engine was detonated by a centrifugal s/c about four yrs ago... it has a crate long block installed now... it has roughly 38,000 mi.
oh and mine has the original dealer option red cobra bumper insert... i've never seen that b4 with black on tan... very niceee!!!

Default I FOUND MY LITTLE ADD ON! lol

.40 over flat tops might work well in replacement of a melted piston! lol... ford racing blue valve covers have to give at least 75hp to the ground also lmao
