Shouldn't be much, that's a heavy car.

I don't know what you have already, but CAI/Tune, LT headers and NSR cams should own him pretty good.

A good CAI and tune should be you even if you can drive. If you can't, get some tires and/or gears.

Tires should be one of the very first performance mods everyone does.

I don't think their stock 1/4 time is more than a few tenths from ours.

Cai/tune waiting to be put on. Don't know about underdrive pulleys? I know how to launch her with the stock tires so I'm ok in that department.

Big +1 on what Simon1 said though many may disagree. I got owned at the track by slower cars because of poor traction.

i´d get CMDP too before I order the tune, so that way you dont need to buy an extra program only for the CMDP.

IMO .... CaI + CMDP + Tune is a great starting combo. And EH20 pump > pulleys
