Is your car a auto or m6? if auto...then a stall for sure...


Also, maybe save a little more and get some nice ported heads?

or you could take that 1k and get all of the things u want:

catback exhaust (hooker)
hi flo cat
6pt cage
seats (corbeau or something nice, cheap is cool too)
LCA'S w/brackets

You could pay the $240 for a Hooker cat-back or you could just keep using your cut-out. I guess it depends if you have the money to spend on the cat-back since it will not gain you anything over your cut-out.

Buy the Lower Control Arms and Relocating Brackets from BMR. Buy the tubulars for $125 and the brackets for $65.

You could also invest in a BMR Adjustable Torque Arm for $329.00. It will allow you to change the pinion angle and really get a nice launch.

Could go with an Accel 300+ Igntiton system for $225.

Maybe LT1 Edit for $325 would also make a nice addition.

But I would for sure get yourself a nice stall converter. A TCI 2800 10" StreetFighter is $429 from Sumit. It would be the best mod yet for your quarter mile times.

Those are a few of my choices I would go with. Good luck in your decisions though...

Nitrous kit with all the safety accessories. This was my best investment by far!

Without a doubt.. you need a torque converter.. a nice 2800 or 3200 stall Vigilante would fit the bill perfectly.

Pick up the TC/Shift Kit combo package from Thunder Racing.. $799 plus shipping
