screw all the bolts ons except gears, and the exhuast stuff, and skip straight to the blower
overall on bolt ons, youll spend about the same or close to that of a blower and wont get much from them, skip them go straight to the blower and make a lot more power and have a much faster car in the end, and then later on do all those little bolt ons

if you got the cash get a supercharger or turbo

but if you do that you still need subframe connectors, lowercontrol arms and uppers

plus drag radials or slicks (for the track)

i would like to get a used supercharger only if it was good

if i were to buy a supercharger now de millo i wouldnt want to spend more then 3 grand on it, unless it was new but i would have to wait for that

Cams will run you around 700 and would guess around 400 for install.

You will lose a little power down low, but you will pick up 20-30 up top, so its well worth it to me.
