Need opinions on what to do next
I have
TBE, 272's, cam gears, intake w/pipe, bov, walbro, safcII, dynoflash, mbc, lowered, tint, boost and egt gauges, scanmaster, and i'm sure i'm forgeting a few little things. I am going to set aside about 300 bucks from my taxes and put it towards my car. I am looking for suggestions on what to get next. A tune is definately one of them but I can get that for less than 100 so tops about 250 to spend. Any suggestions?
I was thinking either shifter bushings and ignalls stiffy
or
10.5 hotside (if it's worth it)
I am still not sure if the 10.5 hotside is worth it or not. I have not read too in depth on the subject.
Also, alchy or nitrous or anything like that I do not want, just a simple bolt on. I know I'm being kinda picky but any suggestions are welcome. Thank you

How can you get a reflash for less than $100?
You should add a 10.5 hotside and a Powerflex front motor mount. Don't spend all that money on a stiffy, when the $50 motor mount will be a much better solution for limiting engine movement.
Hey, sharkbite, when did you hit 10s? I thought your car was getting the new turbo this week. I didn't know you found time to run 10s on the stroker w/stock turbo in the Winter in CT. Did you drive back down to Florida and hit the drag strip?

i know this is out of your price range, i didn't see a clutch there so if not then i would highly suggest that with your mods because if you are on the stocker it won't be long intill that goes out.
He is asking for my suggestion and thats what I gave him, for smaller mods the shifter bushings + powerflex motor mount bushing make shifting night and day with some added vibration, I just don't see doing any powermods like a 10.5 housing (I would do 02 at same time if possible) + tuning for around 300. Maybe some LICP but they really don't have great gains for the price.

i have a baseline dynoflash already so it would just be fine tuning with the safc with the new parts. I don't really want to go with alchy although it does work incredible. I will look into that motor mount, sounds like a good idea. The 10.5 hotside keeps on getting a lot of rave so that seems like something worth doing as well. I appreciate all of the suggestions! the motormount/hotside combo seems like a good idea to do. Any other suggestions would be great! thanks again!
