Future plans

IV spent plenty of time researching mods and this is my mod list for the future. Please give any info if it's bad mod, the order of mods, ect.

First of all this is what's already done:
Spectre intake
Greddy upper intercooler pipe
Knockoff bov
And "competition clutch"

Now that's all done prior to me buying my evo 8 last week. But here are my future mods for the little money I do have.

1) amsoil air filter
2) the common fuel pump
3) AMS turbo back exhaust
4) evo ix dv and tune
5) megan o2 housing
6) AMS intake manifold
7) AMS intercooler pipeing

That's all I can think of at the moment please let me know if i should re order them or add other mods somewhere

You mention little money. Im all for buying go fast bits but if your money is tight save it for basic maintenance. Buy the air filter and ix bov and get a tune.

Im nout buying all at once, just my temporary order of buying mods in future when i have money. Found a ams tbe for $500 so im hopping on that ASAP as soon as he tells me shipping im buying. then get pump intake bov and tune. Then save some more. I also have about $500 after thoes mods and tune for normal maintiance, just curious of thats a good mod order or if there is a better way to go about it. possibly get cam, then bigger intercooler and turbo together?

No need for the intake manifold so early. A ported stocker is more than capable of 600+ whp.

Basic things what ppl do is tbe,flat panel air filter(in stock box),9 dv and tune.it should net you around 308 whp on mustang dyno.but of course if you have spare cash its always helpful if you put lower intercooler pipe(upper not needed),02 housing.good luck

Why would you get a giant intake manifold on stock turbo? Do you want your car to be slow?

this is the exact reason i posted this, to get your kind of help, i have never owned a FI car until last week. i used to own a 6.0L v8 GTO. it was fun and all but i have ALWAYS wanted an evo so i bought one last week. just here to get info on bad mods and good mods
