I will be getting mine in a couple of weeks.

1) Clearbra
2) Radmat
3) Possibly cut out airbox partition and resonator from exhaust.


I'll hold off on #3 for a little, I think.

imho, decide what you're biggest mod will be ( are you going FI? stroker? or just little stuff?) and get it first. that way you don't waste any money. if you just plan on nickel and diming the little bolt ons, then i'd get the gears.
