yeah i hear ya about the money thing. still any mods do your car very well. mine needs just about full boltons to do anything...ouch i know how the deer thing feels in high school i had a 2001 camaro ss, and i hit a deer comming back from the train station doing 55, and it wasn't pretty. i'm hoping to instal the nitrous kit soon, but honestly i don't even know where to start

Be careful with the nitrous...its the reason my cobalt isnt around anymore or my lightning. Its a tricky mod. Awesome when it works for good, but bad when the engine cant handle it.

I had a deer run into me this week, going 60-65mph. Eh, over $4600 in damage.

I had a full bolt-on geared 01 GT and it was decent till about 80mph. How much power are those cams going to add?

What do you mean by "yeah had the engine redone?"

while i was working in florida last year, my uncle took it and had them change the pistons, and i'm not sure what else. they said it would take nitrous.


and the cams say that they add 30ish hp i think. but i'm not sure

You need to find out what was done. The CPR, etc.
I've seen PI 4.6's handle 125 shots (tuned) fine on stock internals.
