Question What should I get

I debating on what to get 1st so I decided to ask you guys out there. I have a 1991 RS do you think I should get a Grant Challenger steering wheel, B&M Console Megashifter, or a 4" In cowl hood. You decide
Thanx

87DJP2001, I don't mean to bash you, but with your setup I'd expect a lot better times out of it. The mph definatly seems pretty low. I run the same time at 3 mph better with just $1k of mods into the car (the IROC). I would think you'd be quite a bit faster. Something just doesn't seem right to me.


Cowlcamaro, it's your choice, I'd go with what 87DJP2001 said. Personally, I wouldn't do any of the mods you listed. I'd do some performance mods first.

excellent suspension is the way to go and then you need to get rid of the 305 tbi for a 350 and any intake system other than TPI that makes at least 300rwhp cuz n2o will make up for the power that the motor doesnt make

A WORD TO OF THE WISE" POWER IS GREAT BUT YOU DONT GO FAST IF YOU SPIN THE TIRES, SO GET THE SUSPENSION RIGHT AND YOU WILL GO FASTER"

i have BMR relocation brackets(weld in)
BMR boxed LCAs
BMR adjustable panhard rod
KYB AGX on the rear
Stock springs (soon to be drag launch)
and a stock TQ arm in poly bushing(soon a BMR xtreme TQ)
and BFG 275/50/15 Drag Radials at 20psi
and i have the KYB AGXs on the front

but you will have to adjust your suspension according to the track but it is usually 1/2 on the front and 6/7 on the back but i always have to play with the tuning
