ALL bolt-ons are a waste of money for our cars.
If you have money- then go with forced induction.
If you don't (me) get a nitrous kit for 400$
I ordered mine along with a few other safety extras and hope to break into the twelves with a 100 shot.
Don't do what i did and spend a ton of money on little stuff.

+111111......i have seen more people get on these forums and absolutely waste more money on senseless bolt ons that dont do jack and then get mad cuz theyre still slow, when they couldve just bought a blower or nitrous. TRUST ME!!!!! do gears, then save for a blower or nitrous.

P.I. swap is also a could mod for r cars, but gears is what I would do next. Thats my next mod I ordered some 4:10s. Cold air is a cheep mod to not much of a power gain, but looks alot cleaner than the stock one.
