American Muscle has the best stuff but you probably already knew that Mac has some good parts as well and RPM.

Don't buy a TB. That is a waste of money. And if you have 450 don't buy a CAI either. Buy a VAP windstar kit. You will get a CAI in that and gain a bunch more power than both of those.

You beat me to it

NP. The windstar is one of the best mods as far as basic mods go. That and gears are by far the two best basic mods.

Yep I believe that is how the core thing works. Not sure I have not looked at his kit in awhile. But it is a good mod. Definately ask on here before you purchase mods, I wish I would have and saved money on BS I did not need.

Hey they were like 20 bucks for both They were 60 percent off. And I thought my oil pressure gauge was not working since it would always go straight to the middle no matter what whether it was -40 degrees out or 90 degrees.
