SFI = sequential fuel injection

you can do a throtle body coolant bypass.. wont do much, definetly no SOTP (seat of the pants) gains (free)

you could probably find a 1 peice steel driveshaft from an LT1 for free, or a few dollars, (once again no big gains, but will help a bit) (got mine for 12$)

find a catback from a Z for free, or cheap, and that'll help a lil more, ive seen them given away, and ive seen them go for 20$, i bought mine (with a dynomax ultraflow muffler, and a cutout) for 35$

for a few $$ you could find a set of underdrive pulleys, worth maybe .05 off your ET (got mine for 40$ + a belt)

or you could throw out some cash and get a CAI , that will help more than any of the other mods listed. (got mine for 50$ shipped)


lol, i think thats all the mods i have done to my car. and im runnin a 15.9, not bad for 147$ in mods

No money, no gains. Simple as that.

You want performance, you need some $$$.

Let me guess...high school kid, right?
