Thumbs up Ideas for Buddy

You can email him your ideas and opinions at sarkj@ocps.net

He has a 1996 Firebird with a 3.8
He has run 15.97 with only a conical K&N, B&M Shift Plus
He has just turned 40,000 miles... So he has low easy miles and no leaks

He has 1000 to spend... Should he:

Buy Nitrous
Buy Headers and a Cat back
Buy head work
Stall Converter
Gears
Computer Work, Programining ect...
Suspension work
Some combo of all other items..


He is leaning towards Nitrous because it offers the most for the least initial investment... He plans to run a 50HP wet shot and possibly a wet 75.. I would hold his 100 shot from him We know the pro's and cons of nitrous so we are looking for feedback on what he should do with his 1000....

His end goal is to run 100MPH in the 1/4 and handle real nice... Email him your feedback sarkj@ocps.net

if his end goal is going to be 100mph ET then i would say jsut get the N2O. however if he thinks that he will eventaully want to go faster i would say a new TC, then heads and a cam that matches the TC
