To gut or put on a ORP?? Need top end!

I would like to gain some top end outta my car and am short on cash. What do you all recomend that I do to get some extra mph in the 1/4mile. If my speedo is accurate then I am only trapping like 92-94mph in the 1/4mile. I am also at 3800 feet elevation and am not running at a profesional track but the local one we have here. Our track is an old airport strip! Any suggestions or advice for me to get the top end up.

Well the thing about a cam is though take a guess around how much money it would run me to have a cam put in. I am thinking that it would run me well over 2 grand to buy it and have it put in.

as for the ORP, i love mine. if i were to do it again, i'd rather put in a ORP rather then gutting the cat...but thats just me..
