A way to make that k&n flow more cool air is to install a RB racing beat air duct. And if u want cheap power get on the bottle!

I think there are all reasons why its better just to search instead of asking questions like "Best HP/TQ gain for the $$".

Concur [for Series I], but they're being discontinued the end of July so act quickly.

5) & 6) can be replaced with FI, but that skews the hp/& ratio a bit.

And the world is right again, MM has his patented avitar back.
I know where he gets them but prefer to think he has a peephole in a sorority house at ASU.

I appreciate all the input everyone, I do love the way the car drives now, I am not trying to tun it into a rocket or a show car, just add some aggression to the sound and performance (oh and i don't want some loud raspy fart cannon either, i hate that crap -_- ) All my research and thread replies point to the suspension, ignition and minor work to the exhaust system, so I will start there! Thanks again!

From what I have read the afe short shifter is one of the best performance mods for the price. It doesn't add any horsepower or torque obviously but install is simple enough. Actually I think that might be my next mod along with a centerforce dual friction clutch. Just my two Lincolns.

i think simple upgrades are the best way to go. Too much ruins the cars OEM feel

Just visit the good folks at Black Halo Racing. One stop shopping.

"Worth it" is a very subjective thing.
