My mods to date are in my sig.What do you guys suggest I look at doing next?I'm basically wanting to stick with bolt on type mods right now before looking at things like cam,heads or maybe engine swap.Couple of ideas I have are-
1. Get rid of the gibson headers and get some Long Tubes.
2. Electric fans
3. Move boost up to 8 psi and go with a water injection kit.
That's all I can think of right now.
What would you do and what do you think would be the best bang for the buck??
Thanks,Randy <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

How about buying some sticky tires and actually taking that thing to the track. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
Long tubes would be a good idea. Up-ing the boost would be a good mod too, especially if you figure out a custom intercooler for the whipple. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Well...I think my Gibson's have pretty much answered this for me.I noticed today they are starting to show some good rust on them and they arent even a year old yet.I think I'm going to start putting some money back for some long tubes..probably AS&M.
