Im not sure the prices for Head, cams, or springs on these cars, but i assume it is greater then the price of a s/c, t/c, or nitrous. And that is the only was you are going to get a N/A 350hp car.

Hopefully withing the next few years prices for these types of mods will go down, but i doubt it.

I'd like mid to high 12s...
okay...I don't want to start a motive vs. frpp war here, but if the stories about motives gears ARE NOT TRUE, do this: motive 4.10s + install kit, steeda stop the hop pkg, C&L CAI/sct xcal2 w/ brenspeed 93 octane tune, drag radials...if your labor is free and my math is correct, this should all come to about $1400...what say you, men? (and women)...

^^^ bump indeed...this is the pkg I'm gonna start recommending to the newbies, as far as a good, "stage one" package that will really kick the s197 in the pants...out of the mods I've done, well the UDPs had rather small gains, as did the exhaust (besides the nice sound) and I figure that these four mods (CAI/tuner combo, short gear, drag radials, rear ca's) will take around .8 off the 1320 with a good driver, maybe even more...howarmat, mike and other guys who've been around a while, what do you think?
