Default My particular recommendations for slow builds

Go with the mods that will save you money 1st.

1) UD pulleys
2) CAI
3) Tuner
4) ignition

Then go with foundation pieces

1) T-lok (but don't get the FR unit, the detroit locker used in the SVO is available now -That's the one to get!!

2) Swaybar
3) exhaust
4) chassis stiffening & suspension.
5) oil cooler, tranny cooler, etc
6) gears

Next start putting together pieces for a perf rebuild

1) Cams & valves
2) ported & polished pieces
3) forged rotating assemblies


Last go for power adders

Tuner/ignition save you money how? Better MPG? If so what kind of increase in mpg are you looking at?
