I am trying to decide what to purchase next for my 00' T/A (M6) . I want to find something under $300. My car has SLP FlowPac, smooth bellows, getting the TB P+P soon, 1.8 rockers, LM2 cat back, BMR swaybars and torque arm, and subframe connectors. Im looking at maybe springs (Strano or Eibach Pro-Kit), or a Hurst short throw, and or maybe RevXtreme catch can. Im kind of new at the F-Body modding so any input would be appreciated.
I would say you cant go wrong with either. Car needs them both and if 300 is all you have for your next upgrade both are good choices. Save up some money now and get some long tubes. Good luck.

I'm guessing your mostly stock. So if thats the case forget the rocker arms and catch can for shure ( unless you are buring alot of oil).
If It was my choice I also go cut out and forget the LM2, swaybars, torque arm also.
I just got subframes put in from spohn love them never thought I'd say that because I did it for track reasons, but on the street they work great they realy stiffen the car up.
But I'm a preformance guy and I would look into long tubes then a cam then some gears. But with your 300 bucks I'd look at your short throw, cutout or a SSRA kit. IMO
Thanks for the input guys, I think im going to get the hurst billet shifter. I think i read that the strano springs are on back order for a while anyways, so ill probly get the springs this summer.
I would go with a Pro 5.0 and short stick if you want a shifter. Also it wasnt in your list but some lca's with relocation brackets would help a lot with your other suspension mods.

Do not get lowering springs without good shocks unless all you care about are looks.
I second the Pro 5.0 over the hurst billet. Yea the hurst is great but you're paying more for the name there...check with other people, but I've shifted one with the Pro 5.0 and it's a 2 finger shift for me in most applications unless I intend to abuse it...then it's white knuckle time.
And at the risk of sounding like a re re, what does the catch can do for ya? Really? And is it worht it?
A catch can for our cars gets put in line with the pvc system and insted of the oil blowing into your intake the catch can will mostly prevent the oil from getting that far. YOU CAN MAKE ONE though pritty simple.
