need help
i have a 95 formula with catback magnaflow exhaust and k&n air filter i run about 14.1's i wanna be low thirteens what can i do i was thinking about longtube pacesetter headers x pipe and borla mufflers and i dunno what else any ideas

Pacesetter headers and a y-pipe would be good idea. A single 3 inch cat back is still fine
at your power level and you wont need anything bigger unless you have blower or more
displacement. Nitrous will get you there but make sure you get as much info you can
before using power adders if you are new. 3.42 0r 3.73 gears are good idea but if you
have 3.42 then stick with them if fuel economy is a problem. Can you get away with not
runing cats on the car where you live? I live in florida and we dont do emissions testing anymore.

I would say get a intake, full exhaust, shift kit, and new gears (3.73's if you have 2.73s) if you have 3.23s or above I would forget gears probably wouldnt see TOO MUCH of a difference but dont qoute me on that, so instead I would say a nice torque converter with some radials.
All that for under ~1500 (if you shop around) without installation costs
You would see time slashed in the 1320.

As for TB I would say leave it stock for now until you get into bigger mods...heads/cam wont see a big change.
