Yep, ignore all that stuff in his profile about this whole "nitrous" business that is all the rage amongst the kids these days.

James is close to 11s by WEIGHT REDUCTION ONLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whisper lid with K&N $200-something (w/ carbon fiber look!

... however, I have been beat by the above poster ... only because I can't launch. :(

Owned by the drop in K&N ;)

[4x4 Mustang Chick]

MAC O/R H, K&N, Steeda Tri-Ax, Chrome 17x9 wheels, custom leather seats, Nitto 555rs, Eibach Pro-kit.

Bone stock it put down 220rwhp and 262tq. I haven't dynoed it since. Probably spent around $1300, not including the seats.

Hoping to add gears, chip, mufflers (just for the sound), throttle body and plenum after Christmas. Gotta get the holiday shopping done first! [img]smile.gif[/img]

The usual bolt-on upgrades: 3" catback/slp intake/wires+plugs/seafoam cost about $600 overall. New potenza all-season performance tires bump me well over the $1000 mark but thats mainly for safety in the crappy weather I live in. With the bolt ons I would only hope for 10-12 horsepower to the crank and very modest feelable difference so not very cost effective compared to force-fed but it keeps me happy for now and looks and sounds a lot better than my corroded ground dragging stock exhaust.

Do I expect these mods to help sell my car at a higher price in the future? No :(

[95Batmobile]

I spent way too much on my car..
Just performance:
K&N Cold Air Intake, Fastchip computer work, MSD DIS-4 Ignition, MSD 8.5mm Super Conductor wires, MSD Blaster coils, 3.73 gears, Pacesetter ceramic coated headers, Magnaflow high flow cat, custom 3" exhaust to dual/dual flowmaster muffler, B&M Tranny Cooler, completely rebuilt tranny & new torque converter.
All that is about $3200
Top 3 for me were:
fastchip, DIS-4, 3.73 gears

[SirShaun]

Throttle Body Bypass 3 bucks

Thats it so far. Exhaust for christmas tho.

[majeskyb]

hmm, all I've done so far is the free ram air, K&N filter and a whisper lid.
Next month when I get home, I'm going to purchase the CIA headers, high-flow cat, TSP rumbler, BMR boxed LCA's, UMI sub-frame connectors, and maybe 1.9 rockers with medium-load valve springs and upgraded pushrods
