Default right combo of mods?

as you can see below i havent done too much to my ride, besides some cosmetics. ive also taken off the air box silencer. my buddy also has a 01 gt with just 2 chamber flows. the only time we have really raced was on the freeway, side by side at 65 and then standing on it. we stayed side by side until about 4500 rpm, thats when my car just took off. what would the next best thing to do performance wise and would it be better to put the silencer back on, get different mufflers or just leave than combonation alone?


for those of you who are wandering about sound, the x pipes when i had spin techs on was LOUD. just as loud if not louder than most harley davidson in my area. got hassled for it a lot though. sounds good with magnaflows, definately sounds better than the rice rockets with fart tips.

As you can see, I have a list of mods done to my car. I live alone the Alabama gulf coast where it gets very hot and humid. I have not experienced any overheating at all. The performance is just good also without any drain on the alternator what so ever.

My vote... Put the Steeda Underdrive pullies on with the timing advancer.
