Well seeing that Im looking for other ideas for the next mod I guess that could be considered a tech question.

What size injectors do you have? Some SVO 30lb tuned in with your set up should net good results(Madz or PCMforless). Also some M/T DR and some skinnies up front will improve your times at the track.

Heads, is the logical next step. Also I would recommend you only useing GM opti's and not anything else. Iv heard good things about the dynaspark, but its costly.

do you have a rear????if not i might think about that..... the more power you have the better a chance for that rear to break.... that would probably be wut i would do. You def have a nice set up tho.... i have afr's on my car i have had nothing but luck

ive got the infamous 10 bolt 7.5 rearend. BUT Ive rebuilt it with all new bearing and seals w/ the Zexel Torsen (Limited Slip) and Motive 3.73's. Wish I had gotten 4.10s though.

well good luck with that....hopefully it doesnt break.... heads would def be the next step if you feel that rear is gunna hold. do some more weight reduction if your looking at doing quarter mile alot

LOL I HOPE it doesnt break either but im sure it will at some point. AND when it does Ill be going to the 9". What other weight reductions do u recommend? Im still trying to keep somewhat stock appearance. So not looking to loose the interior panels or anything like that.

i still have most of my interior parts... but i dont drive it everyday so i took alot of my hvac out and it dropped about 30 lbs. If you are planning on making it a weeked warrior car that would be the way to go. also think about doing the tubular k member... for the money you cant beat it.

its not to bad...the easiest way i found to do it was to pull the dash it only took me about half hour and it exposes everything that you can take out for the air bags. another good mod if your just doing track use is a manual brake set up. def will drop some weight
