Intake cleaning, kill the moosing, new speakers. That's about as involved as I want to get right now, although if I could get the y-pipe and throttle body optimized (reasonably cheap), and maybe Magnaflows, I'd be all for it.

I'm done, and have been for nearly 2 years. I will be upgrading suspension soon, but that's a necessity.

Interesting point and the main reason I never build my SVT for speed. I would have already put $20,000 to be in the 1/4s that an Evo does with $1500  . Many people will not understand this...
