I think he means when you are racing, not daily driving. And I really hope you dont shift at 3000 when you are racing. Thats just wrong.

5700???? are you serious....? Maybe I'm shifting wrong...but I usually shift it out between 2700 and 3000......

Okay, first I agree that gears will get you what you want, quickly. Second, your power really comes in between 4000-5800. Unless you have DRs, you can't launch from much more than 1500, but run her out to 5700 before shifting, that shoulb keep you in your band.
I can honestly say that replacing my mid pipe and cat back was a real eye-opener. I didn't expect to feel any difference, but I was wrong. Check ebay or completeexhaust.com for stuff. Complete exhaust offer discounts for forum members, too.

Anyways....if anyone is in the WNY area and can point me to someone to put in gears that would be great.

RE: Need more speed
Also, why do you have all that intake garbage and nothing on the exhaust? If you replace the the mid pipe and cat back, you're going to be faster. IF you can swing headers too, you'll really start to love your car. Those intake mods are almost worthless without exhaust. You can only get as much in as you can push out.
