Next step of mods, need help

just got the car paid off, plus got some extra cash. My mods are mac headers + y-pipe, cut-out, functional ram air, hurst short throw shifter, mac lowering springs, and bmr lca's w/ relocation bracets.

I have traction problems (avg 60 foot time = 2.3) on street tires no dr's yet. Best 1/4 is 13.8 at 106. last dyno was 288hp and 332tq.

What should i get to make me faster and hook better without losing my low end torque.

My car will not be a daily driver but i still want it to be very streetable. Looking to spend 2-3k. What do you guys suggest.

Thanks
Kevin

If you have about 3k to spend, then I would say get a nice heads/cam package+dyno tuning. I don't know if you will have any money left for suspension after that though ( I am assuming you are not going to install the heads/cam by yourself). Good luck.

nitrous and a 12 bolt with ET streets, easily attainable for $3k, and you will have money left over for some SFC's and maybe (maybe) a torque arm

that will leave the car plenty streetable and plenty fast
