Need your thoughts for mods

[RubberCtyRauder]

Ok, having only my Marauder since July and presently stored for winter I'm craving mods for spring..Thanks to all you:lol: So I have a few scenarios and wondering what you guys think since you all have anywhere from stock to highly modded ones.

Mine is 75,000mile 04 presently..Car is very clean for being thru winters before I got it..At least previous owners took care of it

(1) Get tune and maybe some LT headers and just drive it. and save $ for future cars down the road.

(2) get air to air S/C kit from a previous vendor and find shop near me to install, Front big brake upgrade from TCE and maybe LT headers.

(3) buy lower mileage Marauder with trilogy( I have my eye on one) and add big brake kit if not equipped etc. Sell mine, This will be obviously be the most cash and all.

I have concerns about problems developing with s/c car and not being able to fix it easily and with parts becoming scarce and obsoletefor marauders from Ford I worry about spending too much and then not enjoying it but I am really wanting to have a 4 door sleeper beast of some caliber. I have cash to do any of the above but i am also trying to buy a house ..looking for one anyway and really want to be in one this spring

Opinions, thoughts, additions all appreciated from those of you that have already gone through the build ups.

Thanks:beer:

Buy Marty's Trilogy marauder, sell yours, done, cheapest way to get something that is sorted out. he put it out there for 15k, well worth the $$$, sell yours for whatever you can get out of it. You couldn't build what Marty has for 15k.

I would start with the tune too.

If your budget allows and you really want to have a 4 door sleeper beast of some caliber. Spectragod does offer some sound good advice.

Unless you want to DIY.

^^^^^^^This.^^^^^^^^^ This would be the easiest and probably even cheaper too. And it's comes from a stand up member here too.

First choice is always the best. Tune and LT's - save the cash for your house purchase.

Also change fluids: trans, rear diff, coolant, plugs etc.
