Sounds like a plan! I'll add that intake to my long ridiculous list. Thanks!

honestly when it comes to a cold air intake on our v6's... just creep ebay and find the best looking/cheapest one.. they do almost nothing...

Nitrous is cheap and pretty easy to install

Crafty - how come the intake isn't effective for V6s?
ChadStang - You're right, but I'm always iffy about Nitrous because I'd have to keep replacing it.

i'd have to look for it again but there was an article about cai's for v6 mustangs. i believe they only gain 1hp... woot! people get more out of a tune/gears than with a cai. if i find the article again i'll post it. but if you think about it.. 200+ bucks for maybe 3hp if your lucky.. imo it's not worth it. i bought my cai from a wreaker for 80. i admit it changed the tone of the engine but i honestly cannot feel a difference.
gears should be first mod imo

deff worth every penny
