  • Hmmm what's next?

    Ok, I have my custom ram-air and my exhaust. What's next? I could start saving for my big appearance upgrade, or I could work towards some new wheels. I just don't know :rolleyes: .Any opinions would be helpful. I'd kinda like to get a shift kit or something that would make my car shift better. Maybe SLP CAI even, arg! Decisions Decisions...

      Guys, you are at the crossroads that many of us face. Either you spend some money and put on a exhaust/intake/thermostat, or build it up completely.

      My advice is save up for one or more of the following:

      Supercharger
      NOZ
      Complete rebuild (new heads, cam, pistons, etc.)

      You can always change the rear end gear.

      Finally drop weight in the car.

        I'm just getting to the same point too! Tomorrow, I'm installing my 3" I pipe and spintech muffler.
        After that, I'll probably buy some drag radials. THEN, I'm saving up for either heads/cam, a supercharger, or (my favorite) an engine from a Buick Grand National.
        Any of those would be nice, but the GN engine would definetly be the most rewarding upgrade. :D
