What was your first

Modification on your current Pony/ride and why was that particular mod done first? For me it was Ford racing springs to get the 4x4 look eliminated

Before i picked up my GT from the dealer,i already had the Flowmasters,B&M Ripper shifter,Eibach Sportlines,MAC diff girdle,HPM driveshaft safety loop waiting for the GT to come home.The B&M shifter went in the night i picked the GT up,so that was the first mod.Then the weeks following,the rst followed.
Reason the shifter went in first is because i can't stand the CN toer like shifter that Ford put in our stangs. Plus it was the easist mod to do first out of all the ones i already had waiting.

My very first was a B&M short throw shifter, this way i didnt elbow myself when i shifted to second gear. After that came a better clutch and lightweight flywheel.. The list goes on.

High performance full synthetic headlight and turn signal fluid.

Not only are the headlights brighter, I can turn faster too.

From: just out in front of you.
First mod in my first stang was exhaust and rims.

First mod in my 94 was CAI and MAF

First mod in my 96 was Rims.

First mod in my 03 SVT was the lightbar

First mod in my recent 91 LX was suspension all around, it had several mods already.

No particular reasons, just worked out that way, lots more mods came after them and still can't stop modding!
