I'm getting my Cold Fusion Dry Nitrous kit this weekend (475)
K&N CAI (75)
Pacesetter headers (233)
Flowmaster 80 series (100)

Then I bought a drop-in K&N b4 the CAI...wasting $40
And I'm going to buy some NGK TR6's...so that's like $18
and that's just performance parts...i bought tune-up stuff, ps pump, h20 pump, C5 rims, Subwoofers, amp, cd player...I HATE CARS!!!! They're a serious addiction

Re: I wish I bought a Z
$1000 isn't the price difference between a V6 and V8. Why would you expect to be able to beat V8s for $1000 in mods?

Looks like you'll be fine with those mods. The nitrous should do the job.2004 CE Corvette 10.86@132mph

I have 3.42's, LSD, 18x9.5 rears w/ Z-rated tires and 4-wheel discs...After the nitrous is done, I'm looking into upgraded shocks/springs and a strut tower brace...
how much rwhp does a stock lt1 have? (3.8-200hp=160-180rwhp where 5.7-285hp=???)Last edited by badinfluenceRS; 01-11-2007, 12:49 PM.1999 Camaro Z/28

Stock LT1 285. So (285)(.15)= 42.75 So, 285 - 42.75 = 242.25Black \'94 Trans Am A4- SLP CAI & Loudmouth<br />Red \'93 Firebird A4- Ram Air under the WS6 hood, !cat, exhaust.
