MichaelGoodwin Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Just came across $1400 and would like to know what would be some great investments for my 2011 GT500? I already have wheels and the VMP pulley/idler kit along with Koni adjustible shocks and Eicbach springs. I also have the FRPP resonator as well. What else would make great choice(s) to consider for the little amount I have aside to play with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt500 Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Send that Resonator back, and re-do you whole intake with a JLT BigAir, larger throttle body (Cobra Jet 65 or L&M 66) and VMP's High-Flow Elbow. If you go this route, you'll need to have a new tune. These 3 items should be around the $1400 mark....good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelGoodwin Posted March 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Never thought about that. I was thinking more in the line of adding an axleback exhaust, panard bar, and getting a new tune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Alibi 2 Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 UCA / LCA's if you haven't already done them. With the change, 1 pc. alum. driveshaft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT93 Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 What do you want to do with the car? You can do quite a bit with $1400, but it has to go into parts that are relevant to your interests (drag racing/auto cross, etc.). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

89Saleen215 Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 One of my favorite mods for the street was the standard Fays2 Watts link...not the Shelby version. That and the FRPP shifter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jer Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 I've heard rumors of a Shelby "Spring Cleaning Sale" coming soon. Don't know how true that is... Oh, wait, yes I do. Jer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelGoodwin Posted March 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 I hope there's some truth behind that one! I would love love to get a lil more for my money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IA Shelby Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 Send that Resonator back, and re-do you whole intake with a JLT BigAir, larger throttle body (Cobra Jet 65 or L&M 66) and VMP's High-Flow Elbow. If you go this route, you'll need to have a new tune. These 3 items should be around the $1400 mark....good luck! I have a radically different opinion. IF the car has a bigger blower the mods above make sense. Since you still have the stock eaton, the Ford 113 cai is quite good and flows well above your HP level. The TB doesn't add as much on just a pulley/tune car. The elbow only really adds power if your blower is ported to match. Don't take my word for it. Ask BJ or Justin from VMP. Since you live in the south job #1 should be a dual fan heat exchanger period. On top of that I would get UCA, LCA's and a panhard bar & brace to center the wheels.

Crushinator Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 Save another $1000 and do a TVS. No question. It'll make your fast car into a beast. Night and day difference from a pulley set-up to a TVS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
