[NorthShoreChiMM]

Hey Guys,
I have JLT intake, new Power Slot Cryo Rotor(about to be installed with TCE ss lines). Ive got about 5k to spend over the next 3 or 4 months. I want to make the marauder comfortable for a daily but have some power for a sunday cruise. Thinking about. But subject to your suggestions. Appreciate all knowledge.
-Exhaust-borla stingers with h or x pipe-about 1000$
-Suspension-KYB shocks w detroit eaton springs, addco sway bars and metco control? Moog? 1000$
-New ford LSD with 4.10, maybe moser axles?? 1k
-Tune? Lidio or anything else. I'm chicago and michigan is a far drive. Not sure price.
-Under drive pulleys or any other suggestions.
-Want to make a fun first car. Appreciate all instructions, experience and problems lowering the car, how much to lower?

ONE WORD..... BOOST!There is not one single thing you can do to make this car anymore fun, or the way it should have been from the factory. Put a blower on it... DONE!

^^^^^^^this

an eaton swap up to 4-420rwhp is quite safe, reliable and FUN!!

next on the list would be big brakes or an upgraded radio

[blkZooM]

6R80 Swap. Then save the rest for next year and add boost.

I'm worried if Run a blower like a whipple ill bend a rod or blow a hole in my block. I really don't want to get down in the engine and put new pistons and rods or the supporting engine mods. I like the stock power and if I do suspension, rear end, and exhaust=nasty panther. Any more I think I'd get in trouble more than I already do.

your car has a trak loc (same as lsd) can be rebuilt when doing 4.10 gear swap. Tune does not mean you have to go to the shop. Lidio does not do email tunes any longer I hear. Marty O from MO's speed shop does. or I think there is Tim Barth in Rockford. Chicago guys will know.

Underdrives are a 50/50 split on if worth doing or not. idle rpm needs turned up if doing them (done thru a tune)

you don't need new axles unless you have a groove worn inthem from bad bearings. they don't make the car faster.

don't recommend Detroit eaton spring, not many happy with their result and they don't offer any help after. KYB also has been subject to some scrutiny lately with shocks leaking in less then a year. not everyone has experienced this though.

Get long tube headers. Stainless Works..MO's is a dealer with better pricing than direct.

Your car has an h pipe already, but it is smaller dia. only Stainless works make s a full exhaust, you'll have to get custom made if you want different.

[RubberCtyRauder]

stock motor not designed for a whipple, can only do a eaton swap.

4.10's and a proper tune wake the car up then do handlingmods, sway bars, rear control arms,watts link.

That's where I am and the difference is dramatic. The next mod will be a blower since everything else has been done.

What do you guys recommend for shocks and springs. I have no air rear. Went out from last guy who had it and replaced with springs and shocks.

Can you have just the stainless system without the headers or must have. Headers=extra 1200 and want to know if the sound is worth it. Thanks-Mike

[RubberCtyRauder]

email member martyo about stainless works, he is a dealer for them and can tell you. I don't know if the system can connect to stock manifolds., you may just have to change out mufflers and leave the rest alone.

many use Monroe magnum severe duty, many have had fine experience with kyb, try CSS or ccs? custom coil spring in KS I think, a lot of crown vic guys use them for lowering springs.

[Serge]

Stainless Works exhaust with long tubes, 4.10s, tune.

[martyo]

I would be happy to help you with a tune, and SCT x4, and Stainless Works headers (we are a dealer for them).

You can reach me through the shop or on my cell, which is (914) 582-6262. You can reach me from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

Hope to speak to you.

I would do 3000 stall converter ~$500.00

Jerry / Zack front big brake kit~$600.00

Fix the rear air suspension 50-400.00

Tune

Cut off 2 rear cats and call the exhaust loud enough
