Is the car stock?

I'd go with the Vortech or the Paxton Novi 2000 for your car. They seem to manufacture a better quality kit with more room for upgrades down the road.

I haven't heard too much good about the ATI stuff but only good stuff about Vortech and Paxton. I've got a Vortech S-Trim on my '91 coupe and am just shickled titless with it.. Just be aware that to get the best results - and by that I mean good performance and safety - you're going to have to upgrade some other stuff too, like suspension and fuel systems.

Vortech or Paxton. Haven't been impressed with anything ATI has put out as far as fit and finish go. Can't go wrong with Vortech, proven reliability for years now.
