gears wont get you any hp, but theyll give you the best n/a performance for your money.

best hp for $1000 is nitrous, and youll probably even have some left over.

Gears and a tuner hands down. With the install included, your around 1000.

You have to play small. I win a little bit each time then stop.

Get yourself a set of FULL LENGTh headers and x-pipe,
intake plenum, throttle body
The headers will run you about $500
X-pipe to match the headers..$350 with cats
plenum and t/b combo kit...250
The computer programmers are a waste of $300, unless you have the Cobra or
tons of mods to your motor. Otherwise it'll give you maybe 10hp at super high rpm's
Only 4-5hp around 3-4k rpm
They are way overrated

Most HP per dollar is nitrous. Hands down, no arguements. Where else can you get 125+ HP for $600?
