    You can get a decent catback for 500$.

          That's not what I meant. I meant that you can get a good catback system for 500$. I wasn't trying to demean your current setup. ;)

              I would definately work on suspension. Sub Frame Connectors are an awesome mod. If im not mistaken, a 5175 NOS kit runs aorund there, but you need a lot of safety crap i guess...

                I would probably focus on suspension, get some Sway bars, Sub frames, Strut tower, LCA's, Panhard, and all that stuff. You could do a pretty nice setup for $500.

                  I'd probobly finish your intake first, but that's just me. I'd rather work on speed first rather than cornering. If I wanted a car that cornered well I woulda gotten an import. [img]smile.gif[/img]

                              Arnaldo is right if you are looking for pure power but it's a little more that what he suggested if you have someone else install it (I paid 100 cash for a quick install)...

                              The kit comes with all the safety features (FPSS, WOT switch, main activation switch, ...) but for some reason that particular kit sometimes does not have the fuel rail coupling for the regulator and sometimes is shipped without the FPSS...

                              Anyway, good luck!
