Long Tube headers would be a good investment. Pacesetter, and Hooker make a quality product. How much do you have to spend?

4.10's installed are going to cost more than a few hundred.

headers will be more than $300. I presonally wouldnt do gears myself, and I did my own H/C install. Dont let me stop you, but just make sure you know what you are doing.

Re: Money to spend!

You have 300 to spend or is that what everyone is guessing?

Ever think of upgrading your clutch?

Gears, LT Headers, or even just an exhaust. I don't know if you have stock exhuast but I am selling my Borla Catback exhuast. Has all three plates and is stainless steel and has the quad cut tips. If your interested PM me.

I think exhaust is probably the best way to go. Like I say, the more flow, the more go!

The search function works great for this.

$300? Get a set of mildly used drag radials -- and just get some seat time. That will be your best mod at this point.

Re: Money to spend!

by the way...

the prokit will reduce your weight transfer, which will make launching harder.

you 60' times will likely suffer.


if you can do the work yourself...the gears will be the way to go. although you'll never get traction on street tires after that.

Re: Money to spend!

drag radials.. all the power and gear in the world won't make a difference if you can't hook.
