JWT cams and the SS rom tune with a pulley set and intake. will be in the $1000 range but a reliable na car with close to 170 at the wheels. maybe 170.

i sat here debating for like 2 mins how to answer this.


power = money

no money = no power

save your money, and put it into suspension. and i dont mean $75 coilover springs on stock struts. by some real coilovers.

also, if u dont have lots of cash, learn how to drive. skill will allow you to do much more with a car then you imagine. skill = priceless
