Aren't you the guy who was going to drop a G-and-a-Half on that car this
Christmas? What happened? I suck with names, so don't be offended if
I'm wrong. Start with:
- Tires. Firehawks suck, and power's worthless if you can't use it.
- Intake. AEM made the most power on the dyno, making it the value
*and* power king. $300-350
- Header. Hotshot is your best, if not only choice. $400-450
Buy some tires you like; just about anything's better than these
friggin' 'Stones. Fast parts on this order should be about $700 +
shipping if you shop right. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 10-15HP,
fat powerband improvements, and critical for anything more serious.
Moving on:
- ECU? Not exactly bang-for-the-buck material, but you'll need one
some day. Figure on spending anywhere from $500-900 on this mod alone.
- Torque Converter? Better launches, quicker shifts, $500,
exchange-only.
- Pulleys? I don't like 'em, but they seem to make power. $200-250.
- Exhaust? Nah. Nissan gave us a good one, unless you don't like the
looks or start making SERious power.
- Nitrous? I thought it was your girlfriend's car.
Speed costs money, how fast do you want to go? Want to know more?
Somebody's already done it.
