Best upgrade interior,exterior or engine


I have like 400 to work with. I was going to get an 8.8 from my friend but ill get from him when i have enough money for the gears also. Then my other friend was going to sell me bullet rims with new perelli's on it but now he isnt answering his phone. Whats the best upgrade i could do working with like 4 bills for any part of my car? Right now all i got is magna flow duals

i have a 2004 v6, eventually i want to put a s/c on it. It is and will remain a daily driver. Im not looking at it as a race car, because i dont have that kind of loot as a college student. just like a mid 12 sec car

off subject-04dsgv6 you been watching the Cubbies? they are my favorite team in all sports

Mid 12s with a s/c will require.

Gears, true trac / 8.8 rear, the supercharger, a tune, bigger injectors, 310lph pump, decent tires, if its auto a stall, and some port&polishing.

You may be able to pull that off without forged internals.

a mid 12 second car and you not having much money do not go together at all. To get your car to the mid 12's is definetly going to cost you some big bucks, requireing everything that ssstang listed and without forged internals im not sure it would be that reliable as a daily driver

As already said a tuner will be the best idea for 400 because the mods you will be going with in the future are going to need one.

I'm a south side irishman I don't have anything against the cub's but the sox are my team and if they weren't I'm pretty sure I'd get shot.

dont worry about the tuning itself, the handheld tuner pretty much walks you thru it, its real simple

U can also get canned tunes from the place that sells it to you. Trick Tuners gives you 2 years free tunes so if your gonna be following through with your mods maybe you should look into that

Well you ask all the time about whats the best mod for the price and hands down its nitrous, Plus I dont really pay attention to the poster just the question. and it is cheap power thats why it is the best mod for the money
