I'll tell you what bolt ons i could actually feel! The long tubes & h pipe, tune, gears, and of course nitrous. The rest may have helped (my mods are in my sig) but i couldn't feel it!

If you want some real power for little money (as little as we can get...lol) why not try a shot of N20 with 4.10 gears, and a tune?

maybe because when this tread started i was asking what brands you thought were good... not how u would build my car.. im sorry if u dont think that a gt with just those bolt on's beating a fully build civic with spray is impressive or a built civic on 12lbs is impressive but i sure do so go do ur own thing and just contribute if u have anything helpful to say. i may be a noob but im not totally stupid.

Take it from someone who has been around the block for a few years: You already have the money to buy a supercharger set up RIGHT NOW. DO IT, I promise you; you will regret it if you go bolt ons.

Extremely reliable. Even if for whatever reason the supercharger takes a dump you can get it rebuilt for a couple hundred buck, good as new.
